I received this photo a couple of days ago.
Look closely,
the plumber didn’t have 2,5 per mill blood alcohol level and mounted the clamp incorrectly.
With this hose clamp you can easily regulate the thermostat.
Great idea!!!
Security advice:
If possible you should upgrade it with a child safety feature in form of a cork.
A wrong grasp could end painfully.

I dare to state globally that there are no
in Germany.
Due to this fact the program is probably that bad. I confess myself guilty as program Grinch.
Never mind.
We quadriplegics probably don’t pay any TV licensing fee just because we don’t manage it anyway to hold such a high gloss TV guide, let alone to pick the magazine up. Therefore it happens again and again that due to lack of knowledge we are watching a
on private TV, instead of
The love life of grapevine snails
on the documentary channel.
With a big
binder clip
from the stationery shop around the corner, the basic right for
TV program knowledge
should be provided again.
Alternatively I can offer a do-it-yourself course with a hole puncher and a key chain.
Now you shouldn’t miss the next episode of Mc Gyver again.

It is in the nature of the quadriplegics that we are spreading chaos all the time. Paper is lying around everywhere. To file the paper piles reasonably I am introducing the world’s first:
Translator BL
I am user of a
which I can’t do without.
I have cushioned it with the common sanitary rubber foam for water pipes from the do-it-yourself store.
This tip is an “old hat“.
If you then additionally fix a super-strong round
to the bars and hang the monkey bar on to it, it doesn’t
dangle around
in front of your face any more.
Translator BL
I have made all the time
with my new telephones.
Quite robust these things. 
A bit of double-faced adhesive tape and my beloved
(see older blogpost) can work miracles….
Strong like a tiger, clever like Mc Gyver!

Everybody who once had a plaster cast knows this
It you wrap it around things like e.g. a bottle this virtually sticks to the hand.
For me who constantly drops things due to the paralysis of my fingers this tape is just brilliant!
For those who don’t like blue the tape is available in red as well

Although I can’t open a yoghurt cup any more with my fingers, I can still smash it up!!!
In this
you can put cutlery.
This makes it possible, even without finger function, to eat independently with spoon and fork again.
The cutlery holder is available at medical supply shops, but can also be self-made rather easily. It can be individually adjusted with velcro tape.

With this shaver holder composed of a piece of foamed material with hole, available in handicraft shops, coated with non-slip reel of the company
Dycem, many people with restricted motor functions can shave themselves again.
Always shave well, or let yourself shave:
With a full beard it’s likely to entangle in the driving wheels of the wheelchair!

Everybody who knew me before my accident knows that I have been a rather
”spiritual” person.
In the hospital I wasn‘t able any more to open a bottle of
hop blossom ice tea
(cold beer) due to lack of power.
My colleagues had sympathy with my situation and constructed this special opener type:
ASIFLENGHTISNOTIMPORTANT!
The opener is also excellently suitable as extension for Allen wrenches if the screws on the wheelchair are lose again.
Translator BL
lose sind.
That we quadriplegics are fixing key rings, tie wraps and tapes to each and everything is nothing new, but you probably haven’t seen this before
