I am currently sitting at the computer eating ice cream while the ‘mrs’ is getting an early night. I don’t feel guilty as it’s a flavour she doesn’t like. Not wanting to end the day with such a negative whingey blog, I have decided to end on a more philosophical note. Having consulted with my online friend, Barry, as to what I should blog about, it was suggested that “are toilets really yellow” was an appropriate subject. For me this seems rather odd; of course toilets can be yellow if you buy a yellow toilet! And so ends that discussion.
However it lead me to consider the question “should you have a yellow toilet”? Traditionally bathroom furniture is white, as this gives the impression of cleanliness. A lemon yellow colour scheme is often popular in bathrooms, making the space light and creating a feeling of space. However I feel this zesty’ness should only be created with curtains, towels, the odd interspersed tile, the obligatory bath and toilet rug and maybe a novelty soap; or if need be a yellow toothbrush. In my opinion yellow bathrooms suits are just wrong. Apologise to all of you out there you have been afflicted with such décor; my thoughts are with you. On the other hand, very useful in hiding any pee stains down the toilet bowel; if you have ever lived with a man you will know what I mean.
Now don’t get me wrong, I am not one to shy away from bold colours; quite the contrary. I am particularly partial to the fantastic range of Perspex toilet seats one can get these days; having sported a gold and silver glitter throne of my own in my time. If you are afflicted with a yellow suite can I suggest some customisation using stickers or just spray painting “this is not yellow, really” around the room.
As always the choice is yours.
Oh bum, I ended on another rant. POO PANTS!
