100%. My water takes for ever to get hot except for the launrdy sink. I've assumed its because its a two story house so the water has more places it can flow to but no idea if that is how it works. I waste so much water just waiting for it to get hot.

Same here except every tap. Especially with the cold morning and nights at the moment. I assume we need a new hot water heater or maybe the pipes.

Length of pipe from hot water system to the tap, air temp and insulation all play a part .
 
i have a bucket in my shower in my ensuite. it fills up half way, about 4 litres before it comes thru hot as the HWS is in the middle of the house near kitchen, and main bathroom is not far from kitchen either - my ensuite however is far away from both.
i water the garden with that bucket every day

Complaining about being busy at work this morning, i've made about 10 phone calls and sent about 20 emails, it's not real hard plus I've just been watching the Godfather as well.
I'll loose my mind if it's a quiet day and something comes up that requires my attention for half hour or so late in the day. If I'm busy all day it doesn't worry me at all.

Yeah I hear ya, hate it when I get booked a 4pm meeting when I'm doing nothing all day, would rather all meetings be first thing.

I'm having what I call a "reactive day", answer emails and phone calls but doing nothing else (except play Nintendo)

Performance review 4pm Friday. Top that.
 
Edit: Actually just thinking about it, I think I got a speeding fine rather than a Red light camera fine because the lights were still amber when I got flashed. Not sure how fast I was going through, hoping it's under 10 K over.

Got new sunnies and now face id doesn't work on my phone. Cant be f’ed redoing face id. Have to move my sunnies down to unlock my phone. FML

My apartment has floorboards and the apartment below me has been vacant for a few months so it's always cold down there which makes my floor cold. Not ideal in the middle of winter.
