it's fine if the temp is turned down to cold or up to scalding, but anywhere in between, anywhere even remotely near the comfort zone and it shrieks..

not very socially acceptable in a block of flats 🙁

You have a ghost in your shower.

ooops.. I forgot about this thread, and having now investigated the problem further I can pretty confidently say that (as far as I am aware) it's not lobsters..
The local vicar popped in to perform an exorcism, and instructed me to leave the building as it it could all get a bit scary.. I came home earlier than expected and found him sat at my desk in his pants, eating my hob nobs and drinking my sherry, with nun porn and STW on the laptop and a big tub of vaseline in his lap..

I don't sing, I always shower fully clothed and my shower was born with a rare genetic abnormaility which meant that it didn't develop properly from the knees down and consequently has no feet and doesn't reach all the way to the ground..

which leaves me at this point with one option..

to provide some details to the aptly named showerman, and try to get a diagnosis..

It's a Mira Sprint, about 10 years old (ish) 😕

All the showers in our block of flats wail when they're being used. We can hear our upstairs neighbour and he can probably hear ours. The only thing that makes it stop, at least for a bit is to give the temperature control a good whack. I'd guess its air getting trapped in the system or something? It's not an electric shower though.

So lets me get this right:

We've got lobsters, exorcisims, nun porn, vaseline, hobnobs, alcoholic thieving vicars, STW, genetic abnormalities and a showerman.

I think you might be needing a psychiatrist mate!

Top post!

EDIT: you're in trouble if the Banshee stops wailing btw...
