for thirty years i have used an inflatable toilet seat cushion. this piece of equipment which is vital in the prevention of pressure sores was provided by the community loan stores . i have now been told they will not provide funding for this item and i have not been given an alternative i can use.
can anyone advise of other products they use for this purpose.
If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb

Then again, if you get 30 years out of it . . .

That reminds me, I need a new shower chair, mine is on it's last legs. Every time I have a shower, Karen and I kill ourselves laughing, because it squeeks like an Alabama pig on heat!

I've had it for 13 years, it cost about £300.00 when I bought it, which seemed steep, but when you work it out, that's only £1.92 a month!

I might see how many more months I can squeeze out of it.

Simon. :ranting:
