Things you'd like inventing that haven't been invented yet

When someone pokes that backpack thing with a lit spill, sure...

*BOOM*

But otherwise, no, because methane is heavier than air.

There was an episode of All creatures great and small where Tristran was supposed to make an incision to a cow to release trapped gas in one of it’s stomachs, iirc the knife was too hot and the cow exploded, luckily I believe it survived the ordeal

Sure that's in one of the books, somewhere...

A nice normal family.

Happy to pay out with other kids rather than be on devices, happy with a choc ice as a treat, happy with hand me down clothes, happy with a ball and a jersey for posts ...

Wife with a s*x drive!🤣🤣🤣

Looks like you've dipped out then - they are already amongst us.

I'm married to one so they are definitely 'out there'.

Maybe you just aren't fanciable enough, romantic enough or respectful enough to attract one?

A bike bag that has infinite capacity, but compact external dimensions and also renders the weight of the contents to zero. I’d call it the kitchen sink bag, to be used for touring.

I think Doctor who has one of those. Womens handbags are Tardis-like in their seemingly infinite capacity.

Well, you can't pinch mine!

Every time I use a 'spread' (olive oil in my case) to put on bread, jacket potatoes etc I end up with bits of the stuff on my fingers from the flimsy plastic cartons it comes in, which if not spotted gets here and there, as in a blob ended up on my shoes last night.🧐 I'd like someone to put 'spread' in one of those pump action bottles, like they now do with ketchup, mayonnaise etc.🤔

You want a butter gun.

Stop putting lard on your potato & toast, you'll find whatever you also add tastes much better.

A remote control ejector seat button for Twot cyclists like the Lime Bike rider who missed T-boning me, by inches at full speed (I felt the wind) on the pavement a few weeks ago, or the lycra-clad pavement cyclist who did T-bone a friend a few days ago - causing a minor hand fracture and major rib bruising.

Shoe laces that don't untie themselves (without the need for a double knot).

You don't need a double knot, you just need to learn to tie them the right way in the first instance, it's not the natural way & the way most people have been taught, but by going under rather than over solves the issue.

Try Googleing"no tie shoe laces". Lots of options come up. I bought a pkt of elastic with sliding lock laces for my trainers. They work really well.
