Just for fun, after pulling a load of hair out of the bath plug hole while I was cleaning and wishing there was an invention that would do it for me, what do you wish existed that doesn't?

And another! I hate emptying the bin and wish I could just press a button and the whole lot would shoot out of the bottom and down a chute to some kind of rubbish centre. A bit like a laundry chute but for rubbish that takes it somewhere so I don't have to deal with it!

As a child the house I lived in had a rubbish shoot, just as you describe.

I would like a time machine.

@DustyMaiden where did the rubbish go?

It was a flat in a converted Georgian house in London. The rubbish went straight into big brick build bins.The dustman would shovel it into metal bins. It was not glamorous.

A replicator from star trek, you just go up tell it what you want and it appears.
Or a robot that tidies.

Would like a waterproof electric scrubbing brush to clean oven racks etc .There is a shite one sale but its shite - no power to clean burnt on grease .
Or thick teatowels made into gloves - so you can dry plates quickly and stack them away - without having to put the normal towel down etc .

I would like a watch that could stop and start time whenever needed.

dyscalculicgal96 · 15/04/2020 17:54

A robot who did boring jobs

Raera · 15/04/2020 18:02

A key which unlocked the house remotely, like the car one so to avoid manhandling keys and shopping when I get home.
Less boring, I too would like a time machine, perhaps I can be the next Dr Who.….please!
