"It looks as if it was put in by an Indian."

my shower has an in-shower-head heating element, so it has a cold water supply all the way up to within an inch or so of where the water comes out. there's a 240v mains wire, therefore, running from a socket mounted in the bathroom wall out along the pipe and into the shower head. its a little scary and makes me want to wear rubber boots and stand in a bucket as I wash. also, the electrics are such that as I turn the cold water supply on and off, the lights in the room dim and brighten and the ceiling fan gets slower and faster. Prince Phillip would not approve.
