Ha ha ha!!!!! We have an original, square wooden, towel rack in two bathrooms. The house was built in 1953.
My wife was drying her hair in the "bottom" bathroom when sparkes and smoke started coming out of the dryer. She just threw the dryer from her and called me!
She set fire to a towel and the towel rack still bears the flame damage scars (half burned through!).
I asked why she didn't pull the plug! "Oh, I didn't want to get electrocuted!" she said.
Always check the mesh filter at the back of the hair dryer - They soon get blocked and cause overheating! (I suppose that, not a lot of members use hairdryers!)
I am still giggling Bob!
Rgds.
