I shower every day but I suspect it is not too good for my dry skin.

Yes! I'm disabled, and it's the only way I can keep independent.
I resent it being called ' the work of the devil, and unhygienic!'
This is insulting to disabled people and you should know better!angry

You are just out to cause trouble.

I don't think wet rooms are the province of disabled people only. A lot of people have them. Why shouldn't I express my views?

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 27-Feb-15 22:39:36

I still hate wet rooms.

Galen Fri 27-Feb-15 22:39:47

I can't believe what you're saying!
Talk to other GNers who've met me!

That's beyond the pale jingl. Your posts at 22.36.

Hey folks, it's only a thread about showers. Go and take a cold one both of you.

will probably be lambasted by both protagonists now

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 27-Feb-15 22:41:52

Well, I think it's the truth. It's ridiculous to say I am insulting disabled people because I say I do not like wet rooms. I think that is insulting to me! I would never criticise a disabled person.

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 27-Feb-15 22:42:41

No, I'm sorry, but I have been hurt on Gransnet befoire in the past. It hasn't happened for a long time. This is too upsetting.

jingle has really gone too far now!
*I AM DISABLED and I struggle to lead a normal life!
This sort of comment is not helpful*

"you stupid cow"?! confused

Anya Fri 27-Feb-15 22:46:54

I've been hurt in GN too, very recently and I know how you both feel. It can be very upsetting, but this has only grown out of a few words and I'm sure no one deliberately set out to cause offence?

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 27-Feb-15 22:48:17

I wish that was true. sad

Anya Fri 27-Feb-15 22:48:43

Jane if you can't find anything to say that won't make things worse?

JulieGransnet (GNHQ) Fri 27-Feb-15 22:48:59

Woooh, people!! It's Friday night and there's no love on this thread. I'll have to post some pictures of fluffy bunnies and cute hedgehogs if you carry on. Don't make me do that, please.

Anya Fri 27-Feb-15 22:49:41

jingl and Galen you are both lovely people. Please stop it.

Anya Fri 27-Feb-15 22:50:14

Bring on the bunnies Julie

Tegan Fri 27-Feb-15 22:52:15

Did anyone ever use the public baths when they were young?

Galen Fri 27-Feb-15 22:53:20

Well. Please give some respect to disabled people and it will be all Rosy Egantine again

Ana Fri 27-Feb-15 22:53:50

You can't post pictures on this thread Julie!

I think I'll take my 'unfresh' self to bed now - goodness knows how whiffy I'll be in the morning...shock moon

JulieGransnet (GNHQ) Fri 27-Feb-15 22:54:11

I can feel my icy heart melting...
