Shower curtains
 

In my experience, in America, folks usually go for a decorative curtain outside the shower or tub, and a waterproof plastic curtain inside the shower or tub. But I’m starting to get the impression that the British don’t go for the two-curtain model? I mean, why wouldn’t you have two curtains; I want to get as little water on the bathroom floor as possible! In Britain, will I find those really cheap clear plastic shower curtains in stores? As the years go by, I’m finding it harder & harder to figure out the British…

That takes me back to before we got a nice sliding doors installation.

Yes you should be able to, I have a pole with rings to suspend my curtain from, and it sits just inside the slower, never had a leak.

Yeah, that’s what I have in my flat in Norfolk. The much preferred option. My sisters place though .. I’m lucky there’s a functioning bathroom.. Amazing, state of the art stereo but rudimentary bathing facilities … ?

Sounds good! Thanks..

We have opening shower doors and a sliding one. I prefer the opening ones. We have had the two curtains arrangement though in a previous house. We have also been in showers so small, if you soaped the inside of the shower cubicle, and turned round, you would be clean. Also, we have had shower curtains, cling to us when taking a shower in a hotel, very annoying.

Yup there was a hotel I used to stay at in London, generally pretty good, but the shower cubicle was so narrow, pretty much all you could do in it was stand up straight. Making some of my habitual soaping & rinsing routines pretty difficult (without getting into TMI.) And, I’ve experienced that weird phenomenon where certain hotel shower curtains want to fly into the shower and cling to you …..

Could be worse. Like some Greek accommodation I've had where the lavatory pan shares the same floor as the shower and is pretty much "out of bounds" after a shower until it's dried.

"Wet rooms". :frown:


If you use a wheelchair, sure, but not otherwise.

Re: Shower curtains
 

Not your regular one though. Unless you want too sit on a wet chair and leave tire marks. :lol:
That dredged up a memory of me helping my wife to shower in one of those rooms during a hospital stay, transferring from her wheelchair to a commode chair, without the commody bits. :blink:
