Sentence: Rosie lost all track of time and space when she entered the shower and commenced her tardishampoo.

Etymology: TARDIS (Dr.Who's phonebox/spaceship which is an acronym for "TIME AND RELATIVE DIMENSIONS IN SPACE"...it's actually a huge space inside). & Shampoo (to wash, lather and rinse hair & product which cleans hair).
