Do you ever use the bath?

supernova84

I tend to only use the shower. I can't remember the last time I had a bath and don't really see the big fasination about having a bath. Do you clense yourself in the bath or shower?

Mighty yokes them baths. Showers are just for stressed people who are always rushing

jaffa20

Prefer a bath always every night. Too lazy to shower in the morning.

WolfgangWeisen

The animals get a bath, I can't recall ever using it myself though

kneemos

Normally shower in the bath.

It's precisely that question which is the reason why I've never cleansed myself for the past 10 years. I just can't make up my mind.

a hot bath with a bit of chilled out music is basically a legal high

stupidusername

I used to, but always found it impossible to get the temperature right, always either scalding hot or barely warm. We weren't too well off, so hadn't a shower installed for a long time, so had to use the bath. haven't really gone back since. well I have tried, but still can't get the temperature right. and I can never seem to hold myself up right, so it's not really relaxing.

Baths are great for getting stuck into a book or if you need to study,but I'd still hop into the shower after too

Or us tall people. Baths are a pain in the ass if you are tall. There is always some bit of you out of it getting cold.

Love using the bath with some bath bombs or bubble bars from Lush. I usually shower after though because I don't always feel clean after a bath.

Won't be doing that when the water meters come in

You'll have to get an unusually long bath. Or weld a cross section into a normal bath, throw on a bit of enamel. Job done

Our bath is used for 2 thing:

1) washing the dogs
2) washing something that does not fit/is not suitable to go into the washing machine.

The shower is the place to clean ourselves.

That is all.

D'oh, you can't dissolve someone in acid in a shower.

OCD?

I think the main users of baths these days are widows who want to reflect on some failed marriage while reading a book of advice by Jeremy Kyle.

Yes sometimes, thanks for asking.

Bambii_

generally I have a shower, but love a hot bath every now and then. I swear a bath is a cure all, Im always in a good mood after one, and so relaxed! if I had the time I'd have a long bath every night instead of a shower.

Once a week I have a bath. It's one of those jacuzzi ones so it's really relaxing. I set aside an hour most Saturdays & just sit there until my skin turns all pruney
Just use the shower for everyday washing.

stovelid

Yeah sometimes.

I guess your husband kicking the bucket would qualify as a failed marriage.

with the water charges coming in baths will only be a luxury for the bourgoise

I would more often if I had a proper big bath, not like I'm massive I'd just like to be able to stretch my legs out and lean back on somethings thats a bit more supportive.

I'm the same. I might have a bath now and again but afterwards I have to shower-have to wash my hair and I'm not using bath water to do that.
Baths are good for relaxing but I get bored after ten mins

_AVALANCHE_

As...hot...as...i......can...bare.......and I'm in.........ahhhhhhh.

Do u not have a shower head thing on it? For fresh water to wash & rinse your hair. Handy to rinse yourself off too before you get out of the bath

Just turn on the taps & fill a nearby jug to rinse your hair. That's what I used to do.

On topic, I shower nowadays.

Ah right.
I thought you meant that when you get out of the bath you then get into the shower.

I plan on setting up a savings fund especially for this very purpose.

I spent an immoral amount on a gigantic cast iron bath when I was redoing the bathroom, and it's the best (luxury) money I ever gave away. Especially when I come limping in after a run (I am not one of life's natural runners) and can sink into it and feel all the pain melt away.

Low lighting, candle lit, glass of wine, a book and a hot bath is a great way to spend an evening. Well, part of an evening.

shrewdness

Sure if you're taking a bath to actually wash yourself, you're just lying in your own filth.

Showers all the way.

Novella

I never take a bath.

dark crystal

Having a long soak in a hot, bubbly bath is one of life's best pleasures.

I don't get a whole lot of time just for myself, so I love taking an hour out in the bath, reading a book or magazine and listening to some Debussy. Pure, relaxing bliss.

You can't do it in a bath either

carefulnow100

Yeah there is something relaxing about a bath, but also a lot to be said for a nice hot shower. Pressure has to be high for me.


None of this rainfall crack!

Jesus haven't had a bath in years! Probably because I don't own a bath

admiralofthefleet

rarely. i did a lot of DIY a few weeks ago and had a long soak after that

I'm not a filthy person, so my bathwater doesn't resemble a swamp after I've been in it!

GalwayKiefer

I can't remember the last time I had a bath, showers all the way. The bath in the house is useful for washing my dog though.

Now if I had a jacuzzi that'd be a different story.

Princess Peach

You always have to have a bath when in a hotel.

Get the full value like.

And yet when dishes get really dirty we soak them rather than drizzle some water over them.

Bath and shower C-C-C-C-COMMMMMBO!

I never used the bath.. filled it with top soil a while back and have a shrub arrangement thats coming along

LH Pathe

do I ever use the bath what are you insinuating .. the only shower I chose to use over bath was in Conway House now that was a power shower. A hot one; at that n it's own fully tiled alcove too. hobo heaven

oranbhoy67

Dont have a bath and i really miss it,used to loe relaxing and listening to some tunes,anytime im back staying at the aul folks i have a bath every night, imo it gets you cleaner than a shower too, especially up the ole ass
crack, plus you cant play with rubber duckies in the shower!

Jhcx

God yer getting awful personal round here in AH.

Never the less im here to answer the question. No. I Strongly dislike the bath i keep sinking. I love my Shower. I would marry my shower if it was legal and i was mentally insane, but that's a totally different story. The main thing is that me and the bath are divorced and have been for the past 8years. In conclusion the shower is the dominant winner and Theres no going back I rest my case. :pac:
