    We went for a great bath and then find we rarely use it as we can't justify using 3x as much water for what is basically the same outcome so instead we use one of the other two standard baths.


    How much does some extra water cost?

    I can understand being too impatient to wait for the bath to fill, but not wanting to spend on water:eek:

    I've just been looking at the thread on the S&I board about whether people would invest in facebook. There's not a single poster saying that they would. Doesn't bode well if that's a common theme. I can't say as I would, too much of an obvious candidate (as an industry) for creative destruction.

    What do others think? (as a chat subject rather than investment advice)...

    No, I don't really see how they can make money.

    What he's not telling us is that as a "posh alert" St A person he only bathes in Perrier.

    Just turned over. What a horrible family. Chucking the housing officer out of your house when they are saying you are in breach of tenancy can never be a good thing.

    Four lizards, a snake, a dog, a parrot... and his brother and girlfriend and her baby often stay over. And it's a 1-bed flat.

    He plays loud music and has a gob on him. And he can't see what the problem is.

    As the enforcement bloke leaves he shouts from the window "I'll see your little white 4rse in court".

    "It's victimisation, it's because we're young ... these neighbours can f*** off"

    He's a right charmer.

    Have you actually done the timing and calculations, or just assumed, or did you buy a triple bath/jacuzzi for 6?

    Many people take 15-20 minute showers and the volume of water that goes down the plughole is a lot more than would be in a bath.

    Loads of baths used to have a sloping back, you don't see them so often nowadays. They were commonplace/normal... and usually in pink or avocado :)

    I'm trying to remember if the back of the bath at my old's is that shape... it might be.
