Crosscheck: Is your new toilet flammable?
 
Crosscheck-

I recall that your husband just had a new high tech toto toilet installed.
Did you see this?

Thanks SO much for looking out for us. We bought a toilet from the Washlet series, not the Z. We can feel the heat, but so far not the fire!

Brings new meaning to "Great Balls o' Fire"!

lcuy lol!

I really want that toilet as well but not sure where to plug it in. Eric seems to think he can figure something out and since he still owes me a 50th birthday present, I'm considering having him buy me that. Can you hear the conversation..."what did your husband get you for your 50th birthday?" "A toilet!"

The Washlet has enriched our lives in oh, so many ways: It has been a great conversation piece as well as excellent dinner party material.

As far as the electrical, we did have to drill holes in walls, install outlets, etc. The electrician was here several times. My husband is usually very frugal (cheap) about home improvements, but this time he is a happy camper.

Flushed in the UK means;

flushed as in "I flushed the toilet"

flushed as in "to redden or to glow"

or flushed as in "to have lots of money

So,if Laurie's Eric feels flushed and Crosscheck's husband becomes flushed then I am sure that everyone will get the toilet of their dreams.

As for us we are still waiting to become extremely flushed--but would very much like one.I just hope that the instructions aren't in Japanese.

Gill (and Tony).
