What bemused you today?

[ABERS]

A recent new tele advert for a handwash pump that dispenses handwash without you touching it. The USP is that handwash pumps are crawling with bacteria and germs due to the fact that people with dirty hands depress the pump mechanism, so if you depress the pump your hands will be invaded by all these nasties, with this gizmo you don't have to touch it.

But aren't you going to wash your hands anyway, that's why you're there in the first place.

Yep, you press the top, and you have left more bugs on top for the next person to collect. I know what you are getting at but if you have a germ phobia these things are great

I'd rather have an automatic door opener so I don't have to touch the handle that all those before me have touched after neglecting to wash their hands.

I'm quite amenable to any filthy money that comes my way.

yeah, more acceptable than that laundered stuff

I often think of that when leaving.

Well yesterday really. I was down on the canal towpath reaching over a fence to take a picture, when a gust of wind blew my hat off and into the canal. I bent down and got it back, but it was mostly soaked with dirty canal water, so had to throw it into a skip and buy a new one.

Clearly it wasnt a legendary Tilley that could be washed up, even after eaten and pooped out by an elephant, what's a little canal water! 

[Hinfrance]

I have a Tilley hat - worth everyone of the excessive number of pennies it cost me in the dim and distant past. Many imitations, but none as good.

Mine's a bit stained now - motor oil won't come out. Whatever.

I had nowhere to put it so into the skip it went.

Why would you put motor oil on your hat!
