Actually it's baths every time for me. Last thing before I go to bed, I don't want to be bothered in the morningtime.
i got a fancy one fitted with new bathroom suite. its L-shaped and needs 2 full shower curtains; one from each end. works well and doubt itll fall down.
my last one was i guess similar to steves one
She only has the curtain there for show anyway, because we also have one of these.

All fixed now. Yes, it was an extendable 'twist to lock' type. Been up there for ages, but fell down under the added weight of some hand washing put up to dry. The curtain rail was not designed for the extra weight.
Mind you, she did offer to repair it by banging in a couple of nails! Even if she had used masonry nails the tiles would have cracked and a right old mess made.
I thought about it and made a repair which will now take some extra weight, yet no longer depends on compressing the spring-loaded ends of the rail. And all the modifications are neatly hidden, so you can't see what I have done.
ah, the old slap in a few 6 inch nails :D... no more nails wouldd have been betterQuote:

true but it would be preferable to real nails into tilesQuote:
