Drama in the bathroom
We have been having a run on family dramas lately, such that everyone is just a little on edge. Then on Saturday night I went out to visit a friend, and my older sister knew I was going out, so later in the evening when my mobile phone rang and I saw it was their number I just thought "oh dear, what's happened now" and took the call.
It was my sister calling to let me know that my nine-year-old niece had just fallen through the shower wall and smashed it. No one knows how she did it or what she was doing in there, they just heard a great crash from the bathroom and there she was with glass everywhere and a broken shower wall. She's quite fine and has only a few little cuts, but my goodness, makes you wonder why showers are made out of glass in the first place.
One of the guys here at work reckons it might be a result of the shower scene in the movie Psycho (which apparently looks a bit like this) - no one wants to be surprised in the shower. I'm not convinced. I reckon there are more ways than one to be surprised in the shower, and not having glass walls would prevent at least one of the others.
