Bath or shower?

Back home, having a bath tub is a luxury. A bath tub takes up lots of space and is just not as practical as the good old shower. After all, most people still take a shower after soaking in the bath. Being the sort of person who loves a bath, I used to look forward to staying in hotels during holidays just so I can use the bath tub. On such holidays, the whole "soaking in a bubble bath and relaxing whilst reading a book" type of fantasy can become reality. When we first went house hunting in London, I noticed that most of the bathrooms here comes with a bath and thought to myself, "How nice...bubble bath everyday!"

Reality - I have only used the bath once since I got here. Waiting for the tub to be filled up with water is a pain and the agony of cleaning a bath tub is no joke. Most importantly, the bath tub has now turned into a mini fun-pool for Josiah. Last week, S and I decided to blow up his inflatable tub (gift from my ex-colleagues in StandChart Bank)for babies who are still too small to use the big tub. We also put up stickers, courtesy of my friend, C who bought it all the way from Singapore. S was just saying that the tub does not look romantic anymore...

Well, lets see, romantic tub (not a daily affair!) versus baby pool (everyday fun time!) - baby wins. I guess if I used a LOT of bubbles, it could hide the stickers and the tub could still be somewhat romantic??

Then again, who needs a bath when all you need is a shower,right?

Shower away folks.....

Look at the satisfied customer, of course mummy and daddy will give up the tub for you!
