*giggle* That sounds about right! Our water's nowhere near that hard (thank goodness) so it's just on the glass that we have problems, but to be honest, I think the shower was pretty grim when we moved in. The only thing I'll do differently next time is to use white vinegar instead of malt so that the place doesn't smell so much like a fish and chip shop ;)
Vinegar really is magic, and I'm going to try your mixture on the scum round the tap and see if that shifts it. The vinegar didn't, so the next stop is a proper chemical descaler or something from J's work. What's the use of being married to a chemist if I don't take advantage of it?!
