    • I never understood what made the English invent and use taps like they do. In quite a few places there's two taps - one for freezing cold and one for burning hot water. There is no way to open one tap and get the right water temperature to brush your teeth or wash your face. You will always end up freezing or you burn your face ;)

    At Least Do This: Mix water in the basin until you have the right temperature. A bit complicated but there's no other way!
    Alternative: Ehm, don't wash your hands, face, teeth isn't a good advise is it?
