This article amused me: http://www.buzzfeed.com/robynwilder/...mobile#1aff75y

And I wondered what people would invent to make life easier.

For me it would be three day weekends and a cleaning robot that actually works.

Lol Azalea I'm fairly tall and still putting light bulbs in without a chair but my mum doesn't reach beyond the first shelf of the top kitchen cupboards. Good call.

And yes Rufus I know lots of people with general bending over issues. I kind of sit on the edge of the bed and bring my foot up.

I'm ok when the kids are here phool, my son can catch spiders on the ceiling without standing on anything. I hate it when he puts the shopping away, he puts all the good stuff out of my reach

The shock putter onner is a good idea. There have been days I've had to get help from the kids

a 'fatigue be gone' tablet.
I am stronger and tougher than I ever was but the 'ugh, need a rest' moments never occured before 30

I'd like a canister of repellent designed like one of those big old multicolour biro's, that you could set to "chav" or "child" or "traffic warden" or generally anybody who annoys you.

A "Do Over Machine" so you could go back to some point in your life (maybe early teenage years) and have a second attempt at getting things right this time.
