I don't think the neighbour will be too pleased at what state their pork sausage will be in when they get it back.

When we had a leaky bath we put a large flat dish under there initially as a temporary "cure" - perhaps something like a litter tray! Mind you, it's been a long time since we had a proper bath panel on it so access was quite easy (looooooooong story).

Thread condensed:


All Bundance' threads follow the same pattern, it helps noone, irrespective of illness. Help is indeed necessary, just not the sort a forum can offer.

Still think it's a troll though.

If I could prove to you I am not a troll, I would.
I so suffer bad anxiety, and am trying my best to grab any help that is available.

I come on here to ask practical questions about matters in my flat, which I have no knowledge of.

People on here are helpful.

and Bundance, have you actually tried filling the bath with water to see if it leaks, as has been suggested more than once, or do you just intend wasting everyones time?

I did try putting water in the bath, but after taking the side panel off, and looking underneath the bath where the faulty area would be, I discovered that the faulty area is covered by the stands in which the bath sits on, so I could not see it.

Speak for yourself, I'm quite happy to make suggestions that may help the OP solve their dilemma, or even just reassure if that's what they need. We can't all be as perfect as you.

I really appreciate this.

Have you tried poking something down the 'hole' to see if it is a real hole? And shine a torch under the bath. You'll soon see if it's wet down there.

My neighbour looked at it and said it is not a hole.

Thank you all, and sorry to have caused bad feeling amongst mse members.

bad feeling? don't worry about that, it is just the web after all

Rrrigght... So fill it with water, leave it for two days, if youve got an empty bath and soaked flat after two days, youve a leak. If not, you haven't...

No need to post on the subject again, really...
