I was recently in London on route to Dubai and stayed overnight at a London hotel. At the time I asked my 8 year old to take a picture of the sink (he was in charge of the camera) but for some reason we cant seem to find the picture. With digital cameras it is often hard to tell whether a picture has been taken or not especially when the flash does not activate (but that is a separate usability concern!). So I had to use my rusty drawing skills and give a visual of the sink (shown above) with its two separate faucets for hot and cold. It was around 0 degrees centigrade in London at the time so you can figure out how cold the cold water must have been...and the hot water was extremely hot (almost at boiling point). The question is...how was I supposed to wash my hands?

So as directed in the email I did follow the link. It took me to the above webpage and after plugging in the code (wasn't very easy to decipher either) It led me to the next webpage which as can be seen (you can click on the image to enlarge it) asks me to follow the directions sent to me by email. But that put me back in the same loop!


Eventually after numerous tries (thankfully I was not locked out of my account) I did remember which of the 10 emails I have in the back of my head was the correct one and I was able to post. No thanks of course to the password help I received from blogger.com.

password reset


I have not posted on this blog for over a month and wanted to post a couple of observations. With so many sites to log-in to at work, at home and everywhere else, I forgot my password. I must have at least 10 different ones at any given time.

So I decide to use the forgot your password link. This sent the above email to my box.
