Always buy a toilet seat that contrasts in colour and tone with woodlice in order to avoid sitting on them unexpectedly.

This is one of those life lessons that only experience can teach us. Thanks for not going into more detail:)
D’yaknow what? I am really going to try to remember this tip. It’s a very useful one.
No! I hope that really didn’t (almost?) happen.
Good job you are not tourist information – you’re a little bit too honest!!
David, what a great tip for anyone who lives in an old house (that includes me!!) I don’t think I have experienced this particular problem but who knows?!!
