how often did your mum bath you when you were little? I hope it was more than once a week (which is all I got )



How often do you have baths now? Those of you who have on in the morning do you get up extra early?! Who likes to watch a movie in the bath? Who has a jacuzzi and when can I visit?

I think one of my reporters just saw that image on my screen. I may have some explaining to do.

these 3 belong in the big mouth thread, the acoustics in the bathroom make it a dangerous place to be for ears.

Number23 said:

what exactly were you doing whilst viewing this image?

ZombieKitten said:

Having a wank, of course. Our management view masturbating as a team-building stress buster an allow it between 11-12noon and 3-4pm.

Number23 said:

so no probs then!

we used to have a bath after the antiques roadshow and before last of the summer wine came on on a Sunday evening. Even now I get a shudder when those programmes come on, mind you last of the summer wine is shit anyway.

daily, in a rush, it's a shower, no movies, no jacuzzi

One4All4Ever said:

ZombieKitten said:

you don't have issues with people spanking the monkey whilst looking at a picture of three nekkid kids in a bathtub ?

I have huge problems with the way things are now, you know if a kid falls down in the street and cries, a man is too afraid to help now, in case they get paedophile charges.

No23 is just being sarcastic.

ZombieKitten said:

and I was just joking

so true what you are saying

One4All4Ever said:

your joke is someone else's serious opinion on here

ZombieKitten said:

I rarely apologise ...
I do now

mine is running right now then I am in the car for the 4 hr drive to Atlanta for a long weekend away with my best friend

One4All4Ever said:

why? I am glad you were joking, I can't assume it always is one. People get offended so easily.

I love a hot, deep bubble bath! Haven't had one in a while- it's toooo damn hot in the summer to even think about it, but am looking forward to one soon!

I always knew that soaking in a tub full of hot water with a few cups of Epsom Salts was good for relaxing muscles and drawing toxins from the body, but I could never find out why. And it wasn't until I spent some time at the Epsom Salt Industry Council website that I learned that Epsom Salts -- made of the mineral magnesium sulfate--are also a sedative for the nervous system.
When magnesium sulfate is absorbed through the skin, such as in a bath, it draws toxins from the body, sedates the nervous system, reduces swelling, relaxes muscles, is a natural emollient, exfoliator, and much more.
* Relaxing and Sedative Bath: Soak in warm water and 2 cups of Epsom Salt.
* Face Cleaner: To clean your face at night, mix a half-teaspoon of Epsom Salt with your regular cleansing cream. Just massage into skin and rinse with cold water.
* Homemade Skin Mask: Apply the mask to damp skin. For normal to oily skin, mix 1 tablespoon of cognac, 1 egg, 1/4 cup of nonfat dry milk, the juice of 1 lemon, and a half-teaspoon of Epsom Salt. For normal to dry skin mix 1/4 cup of grated carrot, 1 1/2 teaspoons of mayonnaise and a half-teaspoon of Epsom Salt.
* Foot Soak: Soothe aches, remove odors, and soften rough skin with a foot soak. Add 1/2 cup of Epsom Salt to a large pan of warm water. Soak feet for as long as it feels right. Rinse and dry.
* Skin Exfoliator: Massage handfuls of Epsom Salt over your wet skin, starting with your feet and continuing up towards the face. Have a bath to rinse.
* Remove Excess Oil from Hair: Epsom Salt soaks up excess oil from hair. Add 9 tablespoons of Epsom Salt to 1/2 cup of oily hair shampoo. Apply one tablespoon of the liquid to your hair when it is dry; rinse with cold water. Pour lemon juice or organic apple cider vinegar through the hair, leave on for 5-10 minutes, and then rinse.
* Hairspray: Combine 1 gallon of water, 1 cup of lemon juice, and 1 cup Epsom Salt. Combine, cover, and let set for 24 hours. The next day, pour the mixture into your dry hair and let it sit for 20 minutes. Then shampoo as normal.
* Hair Volumizer: Combine equal parts of deep conditioner and Epsom Salt. Warm in a pan. Work the warm mixture through your hair and leave on for 20 minutes. Rinse.
* Soak Sprains and Bruises: Epsom Salt will reduce the swelling of sprains and bruises. Add 2 cups Epsom Salt to a warm bath, and soak.
* Splinter Remover: Soak in Epsom Salt, it will draw out the splinter.

I take a bath almost every night. The best is when I light candles and smoke the wacky tobaccy...although one time I fell asleep for about an hour

i really don't like baths/jacuzzis/etc, the heat gives me a headache. i'm weird.

I don't have time for a bath only quick showers
