Invention you would like to see

Thanks Grammaretto I will live - us women are survivers.
I fear that man-flu may appear later tho haha!

Elegran, thanks, have tried those, not suitable for a big girl if you know what I mean and I just want to not have to wear a prosthetic some days and be flat on one side whilst the other side has the support required. When Cherrytree gets her mind controlled sewing machine, I’ll ask her to ask it to make me a 1 cup bra!

kateykrunch What you need is a knitted knocker, as at www.kkukciowix.com/

fourormore hmm it sounds painful. I'm sorry you have a cold coming. I'm just about over one.
Best cures drinks: lemon & honey in hot water . Fresh orange & grated ginger in hot water.
Sage and thyme as a tea. Brandy and ginger. Go to bed.

Another fantasy invention - a way of unscrewing your head, washing it out and replacing it when you just know you have a cold starting

Grammaretto, I’m still not out of bed, so I fear you do have a point.

I’m not giving any more of my brilliant ideas away. I wrote to Lever Bros in the 70s suggesting that they add their products to cloths to make domestic cleaning easier. Probably not one of my best moves, especially as my cousin was a patent officer at the time.

Maggiemaybe humble apologies for suggesting slob like behaviour.
I wanted a long lie in today but was woken at a silly hour so am grumpy as a result.
Keep the ideas daydreams coming.

Lazy slob Grammaretto? How jolly dare you?

Why even now I’m (thinking about) jumping out of bed and having a shower. It’s ruddy cold, I think an award of some sort wouldn’t come amiss.

This thread is getting dangerously like that cartoon movie WALL-E!!
If you stop doing things for yourself you may become a lazy slob like those characters.

An upgrade to fourormore’s door....

A bedroom door that would shower me, wash my hair, dry and dress me, put in my contact lenses, brush my teeth, apply all lotions and potions and add a bit of basic slap. In a couple of minutes please. And can I have it now, because I have things to do today.

Not much to ask, is it?

cavewoman beautiful green grass is for bowling greens and golf courses.
Mixed interesting grass is far better for insects, birds and doggies.
Get astroturf if you want green.
Our lawn is mostly moss. We have rabbits, squirrels and even deer visiting.

Seeds that grow into beautiful evergreen grass that won't turn brown when my dog does a wee.

fourormore i get your point.
Can you ask for a warmer changing room. It's that dreadful run from shower to locker to ice cold changing room.
Another thing I'd like to see is a "Sorry" indicator for drivers.
There's a horn and various lights and I'm told there are hand signals which mean things but sometimes it would be useful to apologise.

A teleporter so I could travel afar without the journey!

Fantasy Grammaretto???
I don't know what you mean!!! There is every chance my magic door will, one day, become possible surely
Who would have ever imagined that a plastic box could be called Alexa and could be 'talked to' and could give out 'information' ???
That was 'fantasy' at one time so, for the time being at least, I will remain in my cosy little world of wishful thinking
However, I really wish someone will invent my magic door soon as I hate getting dried and dressed after my swim!!!

Ooh! I'm enjoying these. Anyone ready for Dragons Den?

Watermeadow I have a sewing aversion.

With that in mind a voice controlled sewing machine with an automatic the needle threading gadget.
Possibly linked to Alexa.

something that would clean my glasses properly, (have tried alcohol wipes and sprays to no avail) so i am not looking through a smeary pair most of the time!!!

Photo chromatic windscreens which dim automatically when the sun is too bright - or maybe someone already invented them!

A sewing needle which doesn’t unthread itself while you’re sewing. Of course it would thread itself when required by dim old eyes.

An anti-procrastinator button to get me going!
And then I'd need oldbatty's plug in energy boost.

Oh God yes, a decent bra for big at the front and small at the back.

Something like a socket you could plug into for energy if needed.

Kateykrunch your ideas sound quite do-able. I think you can wash some duvets but mine is too fat for my machine.
The bra could probably be made.

On the other hand fourormore that is pure fantasy! A magic door!

For Monty's tray, silversurf I'm sure I've seen gadgets for disabled which would work . I think you have to get them online as the shops which sold them haven't survived.

Some sort of door that having finished my swim I can walk through and come out the other side fully dry and dressed!

Some great ideas here. I would like a device that holds my book and turns the pages while I lie in bed and keep my hands cosy under the duvet ( or I could just wear gloves).
