As I lie here, surrounded by bubbles in a lovely hot bath, soothing my aches and pains, sipping coffee and perusing the forums on hump day when many will be hard at the grindstone earning a crust......a thought suddenly struck me!

It must suck only having a shower at home.

How do people cope?

Sorry.

I always think this when people talk of having the bath taken out and a shower put in ..........

Nothing like a soak.

A shower is for a quicky but a bath is for life!

Two showers and a bath but tbh the grandkids use the bath more than we do when they visit..

Probably only use the bath in the winter and then usually when under the weather or that bloody lurgy thing ..

Enjoy..

Have 2 baths and 2 showers.

Always tend to use the shower. It’s a big rainfall shower though and a long shower is just as nice as a bath.

I love a bath,I take a book and a brew in and chill in the bubbles.

Our old bath had to be replaced, along with the rest of the suite last year.

We couldn't have a bath for almost 2 weeks and I really missed it, I don't think I could live in a place without one now.

I have a quick shower down after the bath to wash the suds off or to wash my hair.

I love a shower, there is nothing better than the water beating down and soothing your body. However, I love the indulgence of my bath. The ability to shut out the world and just luxuriate in the warm bubbly water and not have to do anything or rush for anything. The job is to just be.

Not having a bath at home adds to the enjoyment of a hotel stay

I love the thought of soaking in the bath, but the reality is that the minute I settle down in amongst the bubbles, for some bizarre reason anxiety arrives and I get very stressed. So early exit ensues...

You get the soapy stuff, put it on a scrubbing thingy and wash yourself thoroughly.

Then, you (if you have the facilities) let the plug out and rinse under the shower after washing your hair.

I thought the purpose of a bath was to get clean and scrub away dead skin.

We have no room for a bath anyway but it's pointless for me. Mr KC has never been a bath-soaker, it's only our daughter who misses baths (vs showers). She will unfortunately have to miss out.
