Do not be harshing my squee, okay?

In our new house...we have a Power Shower!!!

*yippee*!!!

Okay, a bit of background, 'cos otherwise that sounds like a really lame thing to be excited about - at Sarah's old place in Barking, which was about ½ a mile from the pumping station, the shower could probably fuel a rocket to the moon, it was that strong. But after ten years at Chelmsford the shower was reduced from "okay" to "trickle" (and cleaning the shower head didn't help...mind you, maybe we could have bought a replacement?); in Bishop's Stortford, again, the shower head was naff and we had to unscrew it to get any kind of force from the shower (and as it was rented accommodation I don't think we'd have got away with buying a replacement); while at Chorleywood, it starts out good for about 30 seconds, and then peters out to a trickle.

Sarah and I have agreed that we'll have a moratorium on decorating for a year after we've moved in (although there are a couple of rooms that particularly good do with a lick of paint and a new carpet), but if we didn't have either a very good shower or a power shower, we'd get one as a matter of priority. So the fact that there's already a power shower fitted fills me with all kinds of glee.

And year, granted, even with the background that probably still sounds a bit lame.

*ahem*

I would be uber-excited about a power shower too. :D Yay!

Oh not at all! I am JUST the same about power showers! Nothing cheers me up/wakes me up better than a shower with the force of a pressure washer :)

Not at all lame! I was the same when we got our power shower after putting up with one that runs, (badly), off the taps for ages.

Power showers are not something to be underestimated. They make the world a happy, fuzzy place and should be venerated.

A good shower is always important! Glad you're finally set up with a proper one!

Growing up, I used to live in a house with very crappy plumbing. The shower was already pretty weak, but if someone decided to do laundry or dishes, forget about it. You weren't going to get anything other than a trickle of cold water. I don't know how many times that's happened to me. I would be in the middle of taking my shower, and someone else would run the water and I would be shivering and trying to rinse shampoo out of my hair with a trickle of cold water.


However, in my new house, the water pressure is awesome!

So yeah...I can understand why you're excited.

Dreadful showers should not be borne, and good showers are great!
