i nearly always bath....helps to get rid of my aches and pains and being as i bath at least once a day im not dirty so not lyng in my own muck..... hate the shower cus the bumps in the bottom of the bath hurt my feet plus i seem to use as much water as in a bath so a shower is much more expensive cus thats electric and the baths hot water is gas.....

well it used to be bath in winter shower in summer. A nice bath with smellies and candles incense and a glass of wine.mmmmmmmmmm now its shower if in to much pain in case i get stuck in the bath, and sometimes a nice long relaxing bath, if one of the kids pop in, so if i get stuck at least they can pull the plug out, and throw a couple of blankets in!!!! only joking sandra

The best thing ever, on a Sunday night when I've got time for a pamper, is a quick shower; wash hair, shave legs, exfoliate etc and then get in a lovely hot scented bath. That way, you are not laying in your own dirt!! Bliss.

Well don't worry Paul. It's my birthday in a fortnight so I'll have my annual shower and smell as fresh as a daisy again. Let's hope for your sake the wind keeps blowing in the same direction til then!

not at the moment no, just a lovely aroma of freshly cut grass from outside... maybe the winds in the wrong direction (thankfully ?) lol

Shower every day, but bath on Sunday morning, 'cause it's the only day hubby's at home to tend to six year old daughters' needs (breakfast etc..). So I can wallow with face mask, loads of bubbles and radio on. Bliss!! Steph

Being born in England I was brought up with a bath - no sign of a shower in those days. Nowadays, I wouldn't dream of having a bath. Have actually had our bath taken away and now only have a shower. My husband always said that when you had a bath you lay in your own dirt! Not my words, his! My son is the only one in our family who would have a bath, but he's not too fussy.
