Tritons new, touchy feely showers

The inevitable is, I suppose ... well inevitable and on Sunday with the house to myself I decided to face my demons and tackle the fitting of the new shower. This of course involves ‘Me and Plumbing’ which in the past has usually either ended in structural tsunami type flood damage or remortgaging due to the costs of calling a lot of chin rubbing, ‘this will be expensive’ type plumbers on a Sunday.
Triton, the god of the sea and water heating devices was clearly smiling up on me though, from his subterranean briny dwellings as I effortlessly installed our new Cara shower without a hitch.
Please note; for anyone attempting this kind of procedure I would strongly advise reading the instructions first. This seems to be the key to ‘this’ success and possibly a footnote to all other failures.

Along with all of its good advice it also had this;-
Caution; It is recommended that persons who may have difficulty understanding or operating the shower controls should not be left unattended while showering. Special consideration should be given to young children and the less able bodied.

So what they are really saying here is that if you are unable to understand the two dial type controls. One having four settings; Cold, Hot, Economy and Off and the other 0 to 10 temperature dial that you will need a ‘specialist qualified shower helper.’

Well I just hope that all the P.C. jobs worthy, health and safety brigade are finally happy with themselves and are prepared to pick up all the NHS costs and emotional trauma after the inevitable raft of Triton shower /sexual interference cases that will spread across the UK for the audience of The Jeremy Kyle show at the hands of ‘qualified shower instructors’
