Ha. Haha. Ha. Ha. My day keeps on getting better. New developments:
A. I cut my finger while making dinner. Well, not even while making dinner, while eating dinner.
B. The motor in the fan in the bathroom seems to have burnt out, and left a gross burning plastic smell through the house. At least I hope it's burnt out, because it's wired to the same circuit as the light, so I can't have the light on without the fan also being on
Yep, it really annoys me, too. Seems that the motor hasn't fully burnt out, as when I turn it on, I can hear a buzzing (like a stalled fan motor). I don't trust it, and don't really want to take a fire extinguisher with me to the dunny in case it decided to catch fire, so I guess it'll just be a flashlight on the night time dunny runs
Thank you, it's stopped bleeding now so I was able to downgrade to a band-aid rather than bandage and tape. But it's mega sore, and gonna be fun for the next couple of weeks
Unfortunately my toilet doesn't actually have a Power point. My bathroom had one installed at my request a few months ago, but I didn't think to ask to have one installed in my toilet. It could possibly be an issue though, as the toilet is a separate room that's quite small, and has a sink that takes up almost a whole wall. I don't know what the standards are for power points in bathrooms, but I don't think it would be possible to keep the power point safe from splashing unless placed up inconveniently high (we have tall roofs, and the sink is already uncomfortably high)
