Showhouse bathrooms now have themes – a nautical feel for example, illustrated by the presence of sailing collectibles on the window sill, white floorboards and blue and white striped tongue and groove walls.

We have wet rooms where the water flows through a drain in the middle of the floor – something that we also had in my young days but it was more to do with a leak than a design feature.

There are some posh houses with more bathrooms than bedrooms, although if you have armchairs in there, it’s probably comfortable enough to sleep there as well.

You almost grow nostalgic for the old days when a home had one functional bathroom with a sink, a toilet and a bath – and that was a huge step up from the outside loo and the tin bath in front of the open fire, filled with hot water from the kettle, on a Saturday night.

Lino was the height of luxury when it came to bathroom floor coverings – although that material too has gone the way of the dodo.

Enough of this tomfoolery for this evening!

GP a tin bath always reminds me of my Grandad...he had one hanging in the shed, and when we got to stay we used to beg him to bring it in and fill it up with hot water and bubble bath......we loved it!! <3 <3

Mersey - Our tin bath used to hang from a hook on the wall in the back yard (rear courtyard where GinN lives.) Saturday night was bath night and it was great.

Ann -It would be ok to follow after me in the tin bath because the bubbles would have disappeared. :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)
