Cultural Learnings Of United Kingdom To Make Benefit Glorious Nation Of Hungary

[Maladict]

The funny part is I found it just as exhausting putting up with people being so moody all the time.  When I say hello just smile and say hello back you crazy Euros!  Is that not what civilization demands?

No. 

No. Smiling people can't be trusted.

You Brits do understand that if you only want cold water you just turn on the cold faucet, right?

Yes, cold water comes straight from the water main and is fresh. Hot, hot water kills all the germs. Warm water is just wrong. And doesn't toughen you up.

British let's-put-the-plumbing-on-the-outside-of-the-house is hilarious.

So what temperature water do you use to shower with? Also are you saying that you scald your hands every time you wash them?

In my current house alternating boiling hot and freezing cold at the steady pace of a slow pour

Btw, Tamas, I give you shit because it is The languish Way(tm), but thanks for the topic.  It sends me back to when I was living in London.

[The Brain]

I love England but the English simply do not understand houses and how they are supposed to work.

That was my dorm in College.  I had to make a decision whether I wanted to freeze or boil in my shower.  I usually chose to burn and my skin would be red for awhile when I got out.

The electric shower heats cold water straight from the mains to my desired temperature.

Gotcha. How about the second question?

I always check the shower when I look for new apartments.

Well it doesn't start scalding, there's a window of perfection as it warms. For extended washing and shaving you fill the sink from both taps and save water. Remember we have this thing called the environment in Europe.

Eww, gross. So like a bath for your hands...

Actually I recall it being like that, which I disliked when at the Stanford house as I was sharing a bathroom with like 10+ people.

Remember we have this thing called the environment in Europe.

Eww, gross.

Tamas, I like the way that you find Londoners too cheerful and friendly, it's not what they are usually accused of 

[Gups]

I prefer mixer taps, but I'm not that bothered. I either want cold water to drink, in which case I just fill a glass. Or warm water to wash, in which case I fill the basin. Showers usually have their own hearing system.

Nice OP Tamas. Whereabouts in the UK are you?
