Where Can I Get One?
My Neighbours Mr. & Mrs. Jones always get the latest 'must have' items and I'm trying to keep up.
They are your typical middle class, middle income family, I know I can't compete with their 50" 3d home cinema with surround sound or any of the other gadgets they get on a weekly basis.
However as I was inadvertently looking over the adjoining wall watching her put out the latest collection of cardboard containers and packaging, I accidently overheard her saying to her husband that she was going to have a 'hot flush'.
I thought, well that's the last straw, I'm pretty handy with the plumbing I'll get the parts and fit one myself before they do.
I have spent the last two hours searching plumbing and D.I.Y. listings but can't find the parts anywhere.
I'm beginning to think it doesn't exist, a bit like that erratic period she went through a year or so ago, I'm older than them but don't remember any time, even under Thatcher being called that.
So if you know where I can get all the fittings?

Re: Where Can I Get One?
Connect your toilet cistern to the hot water pipe instead of the cold

Re: Where Can I Get One?
One Accrington lady told her doctor: "I don't have hot flushes. Toilets flush. I have tropical moments."

I suggest that you go one better ... to hell with the hot flush, get yourself a boiling bidet. You don't have to get the deluxe model which shoots out superheated steam; the simple boiling water model ... which is less than one third the price ... will do. It's not for your own use, of course. It is a simple, practical joke, lurking in your bog, waiting for unwary guests or friends ... Kestrelx, for example  Something that will give everyone a good laugh ... well, once the intense agony has subsided, and the blisters have gone.

What a fantastic Idea, I could get Mrs. Jones to bless it for me.
