Mild irritation

Does anyone else get very slightly midly irritated by the way that often when you wash your hands after using the toilet, it's just after you've flushed said toilet? This tends to mean that the water from the tap is at a lower pressure than normal and doesn't wash you as well as it could.

So then of course you turn the tap up more than you would normally, and when the pressure returns to normal, you get soaked.

This is only really an issue in places where the toilet cistern is right by the toilet - eg in the bathroom of a private house. Public toilets tend not to be as affected, especially ones that mostly contain urinals.

In other, possibly unrelated, news it looks like the monkeys are choosing a new chief chimp today. Choose wisely, my ape bretheren. And sistren. And cistern. See, it was related after all. Where are my tablets?
