this should really be in a take a break style mag, surely?

question - what is your favourite bathroom utensil? my parents have a metal bog roll holder* in the shape of a devil, I've asked for it to a named item to be left to me in their wills.

*the holder, not the bog roll, is metal, pedants.

Does the bathroom cabinet count? That's where the Calpol is. If not, then the bathmat that stops me fucking over every time I get out of the shower

This bit got me...
After the inquest, husband Peter Corton said: "Cindy got a very poor service from the NHS. I'm sure she would have got better treatment in foreign countries."
Why are they more adept at identifying bathroom utensils lodged in a person's buttocks?

Best item - towel warmer.

Showerspray
it's awesome. You just spray the shower after you're done and it keeps it clean and non-mildewey.

I also like my body brush, it's like having a really good scratch all over.

After you use the showerspray..
..do you have to squeegee it too?
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Wed 19 May 2010, 13:38, Reply)

nope
you just spray and then get out. You rinse it off before you get in next time, but effectively that just means running the shower until it's hot enough anyway.

I love a good exfoliate before bathing.
It makes your skin as soft as a babies.

Oh yes, that's nice and now my front please


How did anyone ever think that stuff was funny?
I was a barman (baryouth really) back then in a very working man's pub. That semed to be on the TV all the time, full volume. The bar was full of happy but moronic faces looking just above my head. It'll all be in my book 'How I Learned to Love and Loathe the Working Classes'.

can we not just sink Lincolnshire and turn it into a giant paddling pool or something?

(bamboozled Can hear you getting fatter, Wed 19 May 2010, 13:47, Reply)

What you do, right
is turn Lincolnshire into a giant Sarlacc pit and tell everyone from Derbyshire that there's a free Honda Accord for each of them at the bottom of it.

Two birds, one ridiculously impractical stone

I like the 4-inch square corner at the back of the bathroom cupboard
which is the only bit of the bathroom I am permitted to keep my shaving tackle. All other shelf area is for women's bathroom requisites only.
I have not only named it 'Sticky little razorland' but declared UDI for it.
