Our bathroom doesn't have an outlet at all and is very cold in the
winter (go figure). Occassionally I'll run a lead from another room
to warm it up with a bar heater, but the heater is never on when I'm
wet and naked. Being a small room I always make sure the heater
is well away from hanging towels etc. Running an extension lead is
an inconvenience and I'm sure if outlets were more common in NZ
bathrooms there'd be fires/electrocutions
