Do you ever use the bath?

I have to shower-have to wash my hair and I'm not using bath water to do that.

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.

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

Baths are amazing if I can fill one up a decent amount and still have enough hot water left to top it up as it cools. But as a child of the 80's, I remember sitting in four inches of luke warm water, and when that cooled down, I tried the hot tap again only to get even colder water!

Have to agree with the hotel thing, infinite hot water. I'd almost head out to a hotel just to frollick around in the bath for a few hours.

You know what would be cool? A bed IN the bath, all padded up the sides with a nice pillow for your head. Current baths are too hard, knocking my knees off the sides or feeling pressure on my tailbone is unacceptable in this day and age.

Also being able to sleep in the bath without drowning would be nice. And if there was a built in thermostat that would drain out some water and run the hot tap to bring it back to the ideal temperature.

I think baths are the single most underrated and overlooked activity of the past 20 years. Everyone thinking they're great with their fancy showers.
I'd much rather listen to the small splashes and swooshing water echoing around the bathroom than having the power-shower buzzing and rumbling in my face - it's no wonder people are so stressed out nowadays. The bath is a place to spend hours reflecting on life and staring at your dick, as it sort of bobs around weightlessly.
And this is exactly what the government wants to stamp out; reflection and watching your penis get smaller as the water gets colder. It's a metaphor for life, and a powerful one at that. I haven't figured it out fully, but I've spent hours meditating on it.

Lmfao...you were painting such a beautiful scene till you got to your bits bobbing around

When I'm having a bath I tend to wash myself in the shower first. Baths are great.

Ewww no. Your lying their a in a tub of your own piss, ****, and bits of skin and hair. Showers are just as relaxing.

No I don't have one. Would love one though. A posh tub would be the biz. Would use it more for relaxing than washing. I'd have a shower afterwards. It's a bit melodramatic to say it's stewing in filth, seeing as you're not going to be THAT filthy, and the water will dilute most of it, but I'd want a rinse under the shower to get rid of suds.
