Singing in the shower is something many of us do ... but what about eating in the shower?
Bizarrely, it seems a surprising number of Whanganui people do just that — grab a snack while washing their bodies.
A survey this week reveals 7 per cent of people in theWhanganui/Manawatu region have taken multi-tasking to a new level by eating in the shower.
The Rinnai Smart Cylinder survey also revealed that more than half of respondents in the region rated wi-fi, smartphones and coffee as necessities of life ... more important than a hot shower.
Singing rated by far the most popular shower-time activity with 68 per cent saying they like to exercise their vocal chords, while 47 per cent like to save on water by sharing the shower with a partner.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern reckons she does her best thinking in the shower, and so do many people in the Whanganui/Manawatu, with 27 per cent of respondents saying it's a great place to come up with bright ideas.
For the record, 12 per cent said their best light-bulb moments come while they are on the toilet.
More than three quarters of those surveyed believed they could reduce their hot water usage if required and 52 per cent reported that "hot water hogs" have been a leading cause of household disputes.
