Wouldn't it freeze? Would be good as a mini skating rink for critters tho

You might get a thin layer of ice aye... but isn't the whole point that's it's ice cold water?

He probably only showers when it's raining.

charming, bloomin charming... cheers you lot
My thought was... it would be good to come back from a run, and jump into a bin/water butt full of ice cold water, and then jump out and get inside and into the shower. That way I don't have to wait 5mins for the bath to fill up - I don't waste tonnes of water, and I can also stand vertically so I can make sure my legs get the ice cold treatment but without having to submerge my privates.

You guys are crazy! Is the actual running not punishing enough, without a prospect of a freezing cold bath at the end of it? At the moment, the idea of a HOT bath/shower is the only thing that keeps me going!
