Rubbish stuff - light fittings. Cheap nasty crap. They even have replaced threads with little dots to shave 1/1000 of a penny off each item.
Plumbing - soft metal valves that burr if you try to adjust them. Shower trays that depend on a silicon seal to stop leakage.

Good stuff - Duct tape.

I could go on but these are my top hates and likes.

Yes, they're particularly rubbish. I much prefer the ones that depend on silicone seals... :-P

Wow, how the other half live! I don't think I've ever seen a bathroom big enough to share with a seal. Silicone-enhanced or otherwise.

Good stuff: the butterflies and bees on the flowers outside. Especially the brambles, which promise a rich crop in a few more weeks. Bad stuff: I need to go shopping to re-stock the fridge.
