OP In the thread on Airing Cupboards we went off thread to discuss hobs, elements and burners..
In the same vien (and down Ponder Avenue a bit) what does your water come out- tap, spigot or faucet?
and what do you call the large thing in the room with all the plumbing fixures? (and the other things... sink? basin? or lav? ) and out side, when there is a fire, to what do the firemen attach their hoses? (in NY alone, there are 3 correct answers to that question!)
A riot? in what are the protesters/rioters hauled away in?
we have had fun with this sort of thing with closets/ wardrobes, silverware/cutlery..
we might even discuss what is under your house-- (an other flat? an apartment? a floor through? a basement? a celler? or ?????) Or being us-- we might just go off tangent immediately!
Oh, yes--How do you get the water for house hold use hot? --Anyone still do it by the shilling (or new pence equivient)?
