The two taps is a holdover from early indoor plumbing systems in the UK (The Empire days). Cold water was safe for drinking as it came from a mains supply. Hot water was from a local cistern that could be unsafe. Thus, the separate taps were to prevent contamination by cross mixing.

Summer 2021-2022 has experinced higher rainfall than normal. We get spectacular afternoon thunderstorms in the summer months on the Eastern Parts of SA. South Africa is a geographically beautful country and incredible Wildlife. St Lucia Lake is a World Hertiage Site. Lots of Hippo and crocs in the lake and Big 5 in the surrounding game reserves. Mpumalanga where we live is bikers paradise. Kruger Park and incredible scenery is a must visit. Great to see how much you loving our country and promoting it on your channel. Ride Safe, remember Hippos feed at night and thats when u most likely going to see them in the road as they wander off to graze. Very dangerous but wonderful animals. They do wander about the streets of St Lucia. We had Hippo in our road were i live in White River, Mpumalanga. If u were on a KTM , trip might have ended prematurely. 🙃 Love the channel.

As you approach Glacier Park in Montana USA there are many signs advising you to roll up your windows when you see a bear. I was on my motorcycle. I saw a bear. He burst from a bush just as a car passed it and ran for the other side of the road. Fun times! The next year I bumped into griz, I'll save that story for another time.

most houses now, in built up areas fit the mixer taps, but I frequently visit b & b in small farm towns, and lodges along dams, etc and they always have this hot and cold water taps separate. In winter, it's a mission washing your face. I curl my hand, collect boiling water, and then in a split second move my hand under the cold water to get warm water on my face... only South Africans will understand this game we play at the basin.. safe riding bru

Got bad news for you. I'm my own house, I have a bathroom with that same exact system on the sink. The shower is a normal shower, no boiling your skin. The other bathroom doesn't have it because I changed it. I only need 1 💩 room, so I don't care. People in the 90's couldn't be bothered to think about comfort.
