Bye bye bath

I have hurt my hip getting out of the bath and must now shower instead. I hate showers and the worst bit is wiping down every surface afterwards. Our water is very hard but I wonder if everyone really does this after every shower?

I hate glass screens. More work! Much prefer the old shower curtains.
My solution, which I love, is a large thin plastic table cover draped completely over the screen. It takes the splashes and the screen remains immaculate!👍
I take it off when I have visitors and rather resent them splashing my screen…

What is all this wiping down malarkey! I shower, get out, wrap myself in a towel, make sure the window is open and clear off. Clean the shower about once a week. I'm obviously a total slattern. grin

LadyStardust me too! About once a month I do spray the screen with a limescale remover, give it a scrub with a scourer bathroom cleaner sponge and rinse. Does the trick!

The best type of shower is a walk-in with a glass brick wall, a window next to it and an extractor that comes on automatically.
Seen this in a relatives house and think it is just the best idea - plus room for a seat.
No cold wet flappy curtains to go mouldy, no smeary and precarious glass screens( I always think they’re going to break or come unattached
