Shower radio $26.95, from Luft, 212 St Georges Road North Fitzroy. Tel 9489 0891.
There’s really nothing like singing in the shower. Firstly, even if people can hear you, you can’t hear them listening so stiff. Also, it changes the shower experience from an early-morning-drag-your-sorry-arse-out-of-bed kind of deal, to a yippee-I-want-to-run-to-the-bathroom-and-never-come-out kind of thing, which at the crack makes a big difference to how you start your day. Alternatively, with this handy little sucker, on a day like today you can just get your radio, get your gear off and go outside. Damn this rain.
