The shower

The one shower we have in our house has developed a leak, which has caused water to seep into both my bedroom and a hallway closet. The leak is gradual, but if it's ignored it will expand and potentially compromise the integrity of a large part of the upstairs; however, we have people in to fix it, but at the moment we are showering in the bathtub in my brother's and my bathroom.

How are we doing that, seeing as there's only one shower in the house? Well, Dad fitted a shower head attached to a long hose to the tap in the bathtub. Unfortunately, there is no curtain and there is nothing in the bathroom that would allow us to put one up; as a result, we have no choice but to crouch or kneel in the tub when we shower or else we will soak the bathroom.

Showering is uncomfortable at the moment but it won't be that way for long; once the main shower has been replaced and the leak fixed previous showering habits will resume.
