    Coway bidet toilet seat remote control holder.

    It is too big for the remote.
    The remote moves around when the button is pushed.

    (Thanks Coway. Your holder is not fit for purpose. smh. )

    I made a pad of expanded styrofoam measuring 71mm wide, 77mm tall and angled from ~6mm thick at the top to 7mm thick at the bottom.

    This will be put in the back bottom of the holder and held in place with double sided tape.

  15. @andyjennings
    Sure, but it is indicative of the parlous state of #AgedCare in the hands of #ProfitMaking #Grifters — which is not to deride everyone in aged care, where I am sure well-meaning individuals in aged care provider businesses ought to extract some profit to *live* on (whether wages or salary).

    The definitive public discourse ought to be about #Grifters and large enterprises with questionable morals/ethics and of course the bigger issue of #StateCapture (private profits v social debt).

    By Nassim Khadem

    There are divergent views among business leaders, from migrant and non-migrant backgrounds, about the impact of planned immigration cuts and the types of migrants that should be allowed into Australia.
