Something I haven't done for years...

I had my hair cut differently today.
It's back how it was 10 years ago

I have a bath every morning, except when I have to wash my hair, and then I say Och!
I hate showers Jane.

Haven't had a bath for about 15 years ( although I must be needing one by now)

Why do you say Och! Pollengran ( unless, of course you happen to be Scottish.)

No not anymore the thought of trying to get out puts me off.

janea I had my hair cut differently today too. I hope it still looks OK when I have to blow dry it. If not, it'll take me ages to grow it back to one length.

I always have a bath - I find it relaxing - and only have showers in hotels if there is no bath.

rosesarered MI5 are looking for me, so I can't divulge this information. I learned how to say Och when the Chinese delivered the Pandas to Edinburgh Zoo. Please keep it quiet between you and me .

I hate showers, love my bath, and try to get in a 7pm for my little bit of peace listening to the Archers

I got a new hairstyle today too ...??
I'm pretty much back to 10 years ago as well jane and also not sure of the blow drying tomorrow *Eloethan
I only ever run the bath for the grand-girlies these days but whilst I'm doing it I always promise myself a soak when they've gone - it never happens...

I haven't had a bath for ever I can't remember the last time I had one, i I shower every morning and love my shower but the other evening with nothing on TV I thought I d have a lovely relaxing bath well I didn't enjoy it at all it was too hot, not hot enough took too long to run wasn't deep enough then too deep, then had to clean it ...no thanks I ll stick to my shower

Love my bath, a long relaxing soak. As for my hair. I cannot remember what it looked like 10 years ago . Actually it has been a variant of fringe and very short to shortish to shoulder length for the last 40 years. Straight hair and a natural fringe (whether I want it or not) doesn't allow for much variation.

Yes it's the blow drying that's the problem - I now have 3 different hair dryers for various purposes.
The basic one for just getting hair dry in a hurry, a styler thing for controlling it and pointing it in the right direction when it was short, and a rotating brush for when it's longer.
I also still have some electric heated rollers from the late 60's but it's some time since they had an outing
I'm now back to a mid-length bob. Chin-length at the front and slightly shorter and a bit layered at the back.

I love my early morning soak in the bath with a book, once literally, when I dropped a library book into the water. 'Came clean' and paid up! I dread the time when I am unable to get in and out . Due to a shoulder injury and Polymyalgia I currently have to do this by getting on all fours, not exactly elegant, glad there is nobody here to see but me!

On Thursday I did something I hadn't done for years. Borrowed DD's Vax and shampooed my carpets. The water came out the colour of black coffee!! The floor looks much better but with cats and their little nightly 'gifts' it already has some more marks.

I wish we had bought a bath with handles. I am finding it a bit difficult to get out of the bath these days. Has anyone had a handle fixed to the wall?

I've got a bath with handles and also a bar on the wall. Not much use to me as they are not located to fit my centre of gravity. I have to do the roll over and all fours stunt. Hurts more than knees did when I got in. Probably not very safe either. Och!

No baths for me - would have too much trouble getting out, so not worth the effort.

Desperate for a nice soaky bath after four weeks having showers only. Managed, all by myself, by getting in, kneeling on one leg then slowly getting into sitting position.

Used a variation of your 'roll over' Jane to get out, by getting onto knees facing away from taps and then using cast of left arm to help lever myself on feet.

And yes, it was worth it.

Certainly Pollen I won't say a word ( alhough the panda thing is baffling....is that spy speak like 'the wild geese are flying south for the Winter' stuff?)

Did you say Och! As well Anya or something a bit spicier?

Oooooohhhhhh!! I long for a bath! Only got a shower and don't like them. The room has to be very warm to enjoy a shower and even then, it's not the same as having a good soak

I couldn't say much Roses as teeth were gritted!

I love my bath, it's my weekly Sunday evening treat. Showers the rest of the week.

How old are you all, that you find it hard to get out of a bath Or do you all have extremely high sided baths?#

I have a bath every day, followed by a quick shower-off.

I'm not all that old, just have stiff joints and currently a knee injury on top of osteoarthritis. The bath in our flat is much deeper and more awkward to get into compared to the one in our old house. I spent many happy hours in that one. Sigh. It was a plastic one and seemed to be higher off the ground than this one so much easier to get into.
