125

Peace was has been declared in the war between the people who prefer showers and the people who prefer baths.

Hostilities have been soaking, with whole bathrooms thoroughly drenched. The scatter-gun tactics of the Showerhead Artillery were initially very effective, but lately the Armoured Bath Divisions have been advancing closer and closer to the watertank.

At the peace summit in Avon today it was declared that the thing to do was to lie in a full bath, then turn on the shower attachment above it, so that you can actually enjoy the benefits of a bath and the benefits of a shower at the same time.

The respective presidents of both factions celebrated by jumping into a bath-plus-shower together. A celebratory concert is being planned, featuring Gilbert O'Sullivan, Johnny Hallyday and The Simon Park Orchestra, who are reforming specially for the occasion. "This is a tremendous day, for bath enthusiasts and shower enthusiasts alike," said Felicity Kendal.
