You might try this.

This time I have had a shower since 2005, an improvemnt from my coconut leaf bath house of yesteryear.
The house came with a shower curtain. And when due to over use it became shredded, I decided to live without one as they are expensive here.
Even though I am perfectly able to shower and dry myself without getting wet, every one of my housemates and guests seem to insist on running the bloody thing full blast AND like to step out the shower to dry their dripping bodies. And having no hand drain in the middle of the bathroom floor as some folks do, the floor becomes a lake. But wait! There's more! A long term house guest got tired of the situation and actually bought a present: Shower curtains, in violet, rose, white, green, gold, black, Lenten array and Madonna Blue--if you can use your imagination. Other wise it is only on thin sheet of bluish plastic, but it works. Though it does tend to get grungy unless it is sanitised a few times year.
But what an idea! It is actually easier to change a shower curtain than a high altar, innit?

I can't parse this. Can you possibly be saying this is the first time you've had a shower since 2005?

I bet they do - and if so, can I please have one with a nice design of Charles Rennie Mackintosh Glasgow roses and wee square dots?
As it is, mine is dead plain white, and will be replaced when it (a) falls to bits or (b) gets too mouldy even for me.

I suspect Mama Thomas is referring to his house having a shower in it. Similarly, I suspect that quote: I am perfectly able to shower and dry myself without getting wet,
refers to not getting the floor wet. One learns to read between the lines.

Mousethief, that reminds of the old Victorian ad: "I used your soap two years ago and since then have used no other."
And Mamacita: correctamundo. I am terrible at typing.
Showering beats bucket baths and bathing in rivers on a regular basis, but once in a while, it can be fun. And to keep with the OP, lets get liturgical shower curtains.
Once I really thought of getting liturgically correct thongs-jandals-slippers-flip flops but the expense for something no one would notice was just to much.
