Where have I seen this...   
I recently saw a sort of 'combination' bath screen and shower curtain
rail. There was a narrow glass panel to make a good seal against the
wall and the top of the bath and then a right-angled shower rail
running around and inside the top of the panel to the opposite wall.
Seems to me it combines the best aspects of both types. Trouble is - I
can't remember where I saw it.
Does it ring any bells?

Sorry, i've not seen an actual product like this. But it definately works.

It's a very good way to get rid of that annoying gap between the curtain and 
the wall. I used to have something like this in the bathroom at university. 
In this case it was actually a small section of studded partition which was 
tiled the same as the wall.

Or you could use those glass bricks and build one that way.

Or fix the shower centrally above the bath so the edges of the shower
curtain don't need to be sealed. Added bonus is that you can shower
with a friend ...

Genius, i've been using a rubber duck to hold down the curtain in the 
corner.

I'll certainly give that a try.

Here's hoping the chap who did my tiles made that one solid enugh to survive 
my kids pulling at the velcro :)
