Showers are oasis of calm for Brits

People in Britain call the bathroom shower their calm oasis, where they think about everything from family meals to weekend trips.

Half of people in a survey said their morning shower is the only quiet time they get all day, so for atleast 22 seconds under the nozzle of a bath that lasts an average of 9 minutes, they end up pondering about the day's workload, what to wear, and what to serve kids for breakfast.

Tina Simpson, of Triton Showers - which conducted the poll - said that for many people, the brief time in the shower is the only time they really spend on their own, so it's logical that they spend quite a bit of time mulling things over, the Daily Express reported.
