Sort this relationship issue for me.
Feb 24^th, 2024 at 3:47pm

I want to get rid of baths and redo two bathrooms, so there is no bath in either. Roomy showers instead.

TIB says I am nuts.

Neither of us use a bloody bath so WTF do we have them?

What say ye?

Do you lie in your own smelly dirty water and think you are getting clean?

I remember when I was small kid pissing in the bath cause it felt good!

Depends on where you live. A bath in winter is beautiful. But if you are up north there is not much point to a bath.

I don't know what you do but my bath is not dirty or smelly and I don't piss in it.

I am in Sydney and in winter I have a bath once a week. It's pleasant. I don't do any dirty work. It's a nice treat in cold seasons. I also go to a sauna in winter. Bliss.

A 'cold' bath in Queensland would be amazing to have in the heat. Like being chilled like a fine wine. A cold bath would cool the 'core temperature' down faster than fans, etc.
Mind you - only good if you can 'access' cold water or let it sit for awhile to cool down. Maybe add 'ice'?
Other than that. Piss them off and regret about them later.

What's a TIB btw?

It's gotta be at least 65 years since I last had a bath in my own juices. Worse even. Back in those days, the (then scarce hot) water was used by parents first then me and Elder Brother got in the same 'water' with some of that scarce hot water run in to take it back up to warmer than cold b y the time we got in.

I don't recall a shower being in the bathroom back in those days, and when one came along, it was over the bath and there was the plastic shower curtain draped into the inside of the bath, which always had to be kept clean.

Think about it.....you are wallowing in your own mess.

I have had chronic back crap for years (way too much sport) and there is no way a bath with any salt is gonna fix it.
