My new toy is awesome in the shower

A couple of months ago I bought one of these - a bluetooth shower speaker.

It is awesome. I tend to get bored in showers (unless Julie talks to me), and this is the perfect cure to that. There's nothing like some Metallica, or Abba, blasting away from this thing stuck on the shower wall, to get me bouncing up and down.

It was really easy to set up. I just charged it, pressed it onto the side of the shower panel, and then told my phone to connect to it. Thirty seconds later, music loud enough to annoy the neighbours!

Right, that's me very awake now anyway. Between that and Game of Thrones this morning, I'm ready to enjoy my week of holiday!
