bookofjoe MoneyMaker™ — Hot water bottle with integrated cap

1043435f

The other day I was looking at a hot water bottle and the penny dropped: how is it possible that the screw-in cap isn't attached to the bottle's neck, like a bathtub plug on a chain?

Nothing good can happen when the two pieces of a hot water bottle are separated.

So why hasn't anyone done it yet?

There's your million dollar idea for November.

Thought I wouldn't get one in, didn't you?

Ha.

Tell you what. Hot water bottles never gets seperated from their screw-in caps. Ever. It's one of the Laws of Nature and hot water bottles are totally unique that way in all of bottledom.

I learned to use a hot water bottle when I lived in London. No central heating. Humid climate, chilly. Cold clammy bedsheets at night. Awful.

It was a major discovery and I've kept one at hand ever since. When you feel all chilled and shivery inside, like a cold or a flu is coming on, drink the herbal concoction of your choice before you go to bed and curl up with a hot water bottle at the small of your back. You'll fall asleep like a baby and wake up in the morning in mint condition.
