May 2016 – Shower spray patterns

May 2016 – Shower spray patterns

I started a blog about this a couple of years back only to find that googling ‘shower patterns’ doesn’t get you very far in www.world. But having received a complimentary Ecocamel Orbit shower head (cheers guys!) I thought I should

April 2016 – Extreme showering

April 2016 – Extreme showering

How extreme? Well 6m below sea level – extreme enough for you? Bit like the well-known extreme ironing. Those who know me well will be on a knife edge at this point. After all it is something that I would

March 2016 – How low can the flow rate go?

March 2016 – How low can the flow rate go?

To misquote Jane Austen, it is a truth, universally acknowledged, that if you reduce the flow rate from a shower people will just stay longer under it and so no water will actually be saved. I have always struggled with

February 2016 – Showering in fossilised water

February 2016 – Showering in fossilised water

Showering in fossilised water… how cool does that sound? Transported back in time to when dinosaurs roamed the earth for a quick shower under a waterfall for the purposes of this blog… But, I hear some of you ask, haven’t

January 2016 – Braving the shower at Roseberry Gardens

January 2016 – Braving the shower at Roseberry Gardens

As a year of showering variously hits its half century (I know, I can’t quite believe it either), I thought a blog about the trepidation with which those who stay overnight at our house approach their shower would be in

December 2015 – Showering in a design icon 2

December 2015 – Showering in a design icon 2

For those of you who loved the geeky science bits of ‘showering in a design icon 1’ back in October, you will be somewhat disappointed by this month’s blog. But for those of you not too keen on the math’s

November 2015 – Showering with Frankie the flamingo

November 2015 – Showering with Frankie the flamingo

As Safa leaves us for bigger (though obviously not better – no sinking flamingos or crabs who don’t like poo on their heads at her new job) things she finally makes the shower blog – the pinnacle of success for

October 2015 – Showering in a design icon

October 2015 – Showering in a design icon

“How do you improve a design icon?” asks the latest Fiat 500 ad. Before proving essentially that you can’t. Which is my way of pacifying Minty whilst segwaying neatly into the subject of this month’s blog, a shower that its

September 2015 – Showering with the Neanderthals

September 2015 – Showering with the Neanderthals

Well, obviously not actually showering with them! After all they were obliterated some 40,000 years ago and not even Mu (my mum for those new to this blog) would believe that tale from her oldest daughter. Though, as I constantly

August 2015 – Showering for as long as I want? Part 2

August 2015 – Showering for as long as I want? Part 2

I was in Exeter last week at the Water Efficiency Network’s annual conference. Had a great time especially enlivened by: Stuart Broad taking 8 for 15 as the Aussies were skittled out for 60 in the shortest test innings ever
