We all know that we shouldn’t let our minds fuss about the silly things. Yet we do. I thought my ‘thing’ may amuse you!
The recalcitrant loo roll holder
We have three toilets in our house. Two have lovely holders where you just have to pull the inner to the right and off it comes, shove the new roll to the left and you’re good to go! Literally.
Except for the bathroom! That has a holder that you have to push to one side and it springs out, sometimes with far too much enthusiasm. It’s also a bit tricky as the cardboard inner is partly in the way. This is the kind of complication I don’t need in my life!
Instead of taking this well I mutter to that inanimate object every single time I have to change the roll. You know about inanimate objects right? Shocking as it may seem, they don’t care!
Yep, they’re completely indifferent to the irritation they cause!
I know I’m not supposed to get irritated; I’m supposed to be a bunch of fluffies who always looks on the bright side of life (da da, da da da da da da!). But there are limits!
I guess though, if you do look on the bright side of life, it’s only a loo roll holder that can be wrenched from the wall, hurled from a window, and replaced.
I wonder if it will survive the political debate tonight?
“West Midlands woman destroys television whilst screaming ‘no you haven’t been completely clear! You bunch of power hungry, plan-free, manifesto light, nincompoops!”’
Or some such. Are they and the loo roll holder really worth it?
Happy Friday – Keep smiling!

P.S. Does anyone else leave the cardboard inner in random places on their journey to throw it away? Just me eh?
