    Tempting as it is, I think I'll explore other avenues first!

      God I need to think of a decent plan B.....
      I am SERIOUSLY impressed - where does one purchase the anti fog stuff of which you speak?
      I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

        I tend to just open the window when I have a shower. But then I’m a northerner and I can take the cold. (too stingy to buy the stuff)
        And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

          Oddly enough, Halfords - it's meant for car windscreens but works equally well on bathroom mirrors

              Yes, before you cross the line.

              Rain-X though? That sounds like good stuff.
              I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.

                I had some left over after I cleaned the car. God, this is beginning to sound like I have a serious cleaning OCD

                  I regularly swim with a guy who's swum the channel (English and Irish) and can swim in 7 degree Celcius water without a wetsuit. In fact wetsuits are frowned on in the open water events he enters. He's planning on swimming to Alcatraz, which is nowhere near as bad or as hard as the film would have many believe, apparently. He has a rather retund shape however. I would get hypothermic in minutes in those temperatures. It's not so much toughness though as physiology. Not that I am calling you fat.

                    The first thing I do when I get to my hotel room down south is switch off all raidiators and open all windows! They keep closing the windows when they come and make up the bed, but they get opened again. I have the window open in the depths of winter, i like fresh air.
                    We have a very large window in our bathroom - its for escaping in the event of a fire so if it was open the whole world would be able to see my bottom in the shower and I'm afraid the world is just not ready for that yet
                    I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
