Brilliant Steve
I do so love these old wives remedies
Another one I picked up to solve a similar sort of problem is that when two are together in a small bathroom and the lady of the house is showering the man about the house can protest all he likes but it wont prevent the mirror from fogging up!!
A very simple solution I often use I read I think in a weekend supplement a few years back. The solution is literally at hand:-
just rub a little shaving lotion (foam works a treat) on the mirror and then like magic presumably because it is
HyGroscopic
it absorbs the water droplets and bingo a nice clear mirror and thereby one avoids cutting oneself
and far cheaper than buying a specialised fogless mirror or anti-fog solution
