Can’t I just go smelly until the weather gets a little warmer?
Pleeeeeease?
No. Okay then I’ll just freeze my titties of in the icy cold bathroom.
Nasty cold room 
On the subject of cold bathrooms, I once stayed with some elderly relatives who had a furry cover on their toilet seat. In my youthful innocence I condemned them for this unhygienic practice. Such folly! What I wouldn’t give now to have a nice, warm furry toilet seat cover to protect my poor little bot bot.
Oh.
You’re in Australia. :smack:
It’s winter there.
I’m being boiled alive in 90° + weather, & 90% humidity, in a building with defective AC.
It’s summer here. C’mon up and shower with me. 
This is definitely worse than not washing your hands after you go to the bathroom!
Couldn’t you just get a little space heater? They’re cheap, and well worth the investment. For the sake of the titties if nothing else.
(Won’t someone please think of the titties?)
We have ducted heating and there is an outlet in the bathroom but our ducks are on strike* so I (and my titties) must soldier on in icy conditions.
I think what Biffy meant was a small, portable electric heater. Your electrical outlets aren’t on strike with the ducks, are they? Just plug it up, turn it on, and presto! a toasty bathroom in a few minutes.
Oh, and if you were kinder to the ducks, maybe they wouldn’t be on strike. You should be nicer to somebody’s mother, you know.
Space heater in the bathroom? Why not just shower with your hair dryer?
Point is moot because:
A. We don’t have a space heater and can’t afford to buy one and
B. We don’t have a hair dryer and as I’d never use it I’m not going to buy one.
Wonder what is worse for titties overall well being and health, freezing or electrocution?
CrazyCatLady I’ve been really nice to the ducks, honest! It is just that my cat’s view them as happy meals on legs which kinda pissed Duck HQ off. They were having enough trouble with staff moral already, let alone having some of their best and brightest mauled and eaten while on the job.
Are these your ducks?
Maybe they’ve migrated and turned into summer ducks
But I thought it never really got cold in Australia - even in the winter.
At least that’s what the Australia Trade and Tourism board would appear to be trying to tell us in all of those “Throw another shrimp on the barbie and come on down” adverts we keep seeing on North American television…
Are you telling me that something that advertises tourism in the southern latitudes could be telling an UNTRUTH???
Oh, say it ain’t so!!
Cold is a relative term… 2 or 3 degree © minimums (~35 F) in mid winter in Melbourne, colder in the country and mountains, and of course even colder in Tassie.
We also tend not to heat and insulate our homes or buildings nearly as well as those who live in colder climates, so it can feel colder.
Up north, it’s pretty beautifully warm, just not down here in the south.
Missed your kind offer the first time around John, would there be enough room in your shower for the both of us and my husband and baby?
Robin our ducks are alot less fluffy, more like http://www.angelfire.com/nj/duckstomper/evilorgood.html]these ducks.
See their mascot here (second photo down).
It’s been 20ºC here in Sydney this past fortnight. You should move.
I’m moving to Melbourne next week. Hope they’re over the hump of winter by the time I get there (chances of that are low, I reckon)
The hump of winter better not be over too soon. We’re going to the snow in the first week of August, I’ll be really pissed off if there’s no snow!
Humping in winter is a good way to keep warm 
But it is best not to hump in nasty cold bathrooms during winter 
In that case, I haven’t seen your ducks.
At least you don’t have an outdoor bathroom - you know the redback on the toilet seat type. They’re really cold.
If you have a working duck (or alternate) elsewhere in the house, you should get leechboy to warm your towel for you and bring it to you when you get out of the shower - that way, you’ll be toasty warm.
Great idea Robin!
Mmmmm toasty warm towels …
