April Shower.

Is Bank Holiday Monday, (May), so Title May Seem Inappropriate, but had forgotten to record Tale Of Woe as predicted by Two. Yes The Wily One, running true to form, texted me when I was being Mr Wolf with alarming news that electric shower was broken. Absolutely Dead As A Dodo. Never do I receive positive news from Two, is always Doom Laden. Prospect of purchasing entire new shower unit as indicated by Two filled me with horror. So expensive. So much disruption. So much difficulty finding reliable tradesman. Etc. Etc. Etc.

Day after I arrived home, decided to Take Control of Shower Situation. Telephoned manufacturer of equipment and Very Nice Lady suggested take shower head off and see if water runs through hose. Two had disconnected electricity supply to shower in case of Death By Electrocution, so hastily switched back on and followed directions. Water ran through hose. Therefore, shower head blocked with mineral deposits of one kind and another. Swiftly I consulted Google and discovered soaking shower-head in common or garden household vinegar would prove highly effective. Two scoffed in manner of One Who Knows Better, but I insisted, and accordingly warmed up saucepan full of Sarsons Best. Smell was appalling, and Two hastily vacated kitchen clutching wad of tissue to nose. I ask you. This is the man who drenches himself in TCP, which has a very powerful odour, So bad I can taste it, and then claims he can't smell it.

Left shower head marinating for some time, re-attached it, and Voila!!! Shower Works. Am planning to repeat procedure with type of vinegar recommended, i.e. White Distilled instead of Brown for Chips variety. Am sure will prove even more effacacious, and result in Powerful Spouting.

Moral of this little tale. When Two says something is defunct, always Check Out Other Possibilities. I could go into the Tale of The Plunger, may indeed have done so in previous blog, but will restrain self.

More later.
