Bathroom flooring

[Daisy]

The talk about mats and loo seat covers reminded me when I first visited my SIL in the Sates in the 1970s all the houses seemed to have a fluffy cover for the cistern with a little hole for the loo handle. I never quite worked out why - the houses weren't cold and the tank wasn't going to freeze.

That's good Plant. Still besties.💞

I remember the first time my DIL visited my mother in England she couldn't believe they had carpets in the bathrooms! She still talks about it, they are busy planning a new bathroom, DIL says, "no carpets"!!

[Nana]

A DIL after my own heart Lizzie. Hope you're a little better today. Daisy I forgot to ask why there was a cover on the cistern .... like why? 😂😂

The lady I work for has a plain Royal blue carpet in her bathroom.It looks lovely WHEN I’ve just hoovered it but as soon as one person uses the bathroom it has bits on it again.

[Nana]

They're lucky to have you Clover.

[Clover]

Thanks Nana.

What about the little knitted crinoline ladies toil roll covers? Haven’t seen one for years.

[Nana]

Oooooo. Yes Enfys I remember those. Would you like me to knit one for you? 😉😂

Nana, thanks, I am feeling a lot better, going to the doctor this afternoon so hope it is clearing! I booked a holiday yesterday whilst sat feeling sorry for myself! It is next September so something to look forward to.

[Nana]

Good luck at the docs. Let us know how you get on.

Just been to the doctors, a lovely young lady, they are all young when you get to our age! My lungs are clear and it will take a few weeks for the cough to clear but I am feeling much better thanks.

Nana - it was American, I suppose that's reason enough!!! It made me giggle though - a bit like Victorians covering up the piano legs!

Lizzie - that's good news. You'll soon be feeling like a new woman. xx Where are you going in September?

[Nana]

I'd not heard that about the Victorians either Daisy. 😂 Pleased you're on the mend Lizzie.

[Daisy]

Oma - I don't think it was ever actually true - more of an urban myth about straight-laced Americans in Victorian days.
