>>If everybody in a four-person family replaced one bath a week with a five-minute shower, you could save between £5 and £15 per year off your energy bill.'

OOOOOOOOhhh. 5 to 15 whatevers per year.

How much is that in real money.

0.0063 to 0.019 troy ounces of gold.
0.423 to 1.27 troy ounces of silver.

I say, old son.....Must be nice to tell the natives what to do and all that....

[The Sons of Liberty]

All that royal in-breeding is beginning to show.

[Red Badger]

I’m gonna soak in my hot tub and THEN take a long hot shower................

[boomop1]

Yep maybe the French can sell them shower vouchers.

Poor Chuck, nobody understands him. He really wants to be one with his subjects, you know, part of “the great un-washed”.

Maybe Charles bathes in the Thames with the turds.

[rrrod]

well news to me...I thought the Brits never showered anyway!

[The_Reader_David]

HRH Charles is the most insufferable twit any British royal house has produced (well, possibly excluding the “effeminate” William II Rufus), and I hope rumors that Her Britannic Majesty Elizabeth II wants to change the succession and skip him to give the throne to Prince William are true, and that whatever Parliament is in session at the time of her passing implements that wish.

And I say that, despite HRH’s support of Mount Athos—the twit also supports various and sundery Muslim organizations without seeing any contradiction.

Sounds like he’s taking this “green” thing a little too literally. Someone should tell him being “green” doesn’t include your armpits.

I think he and Al Gore should team-up for a world tour. They could bill themselves as “The Insufferables.”

[blam]

Someone should hide this queer fruitcake in the closet.

[ladyvet]

This coming from a guy that wanted to be a tampon...

[ExpatCanuck]

Seriously, does anyone still take a bath in a tub on a regular basis, as opposed to showering?

[rightwingintelligentsia]

I do. Never use the shower.

I prefer to be enveloped in warm water, rather than being pelted by it. Just a personal preference.

'Snub the tub. If everybody in a four-person family replaced one bath a week with a five-minute shower, you could save between £5 and £15 per year off your energy bill.'

Dumping the Royal Family when Charles becomes King would save a family of four at least £5 and £15 per year in taxes.
