It is indeed pink mould, and very common and just needs regular cleaning to keep it at bay. Is always worst at this time of year as we don't have our bathroom windows open in the cold weather to give extra ventilation. Just use any proprietary bathroom cleaner and scrub scrub away the old fashioned way:D0

It's soap scum.
I spray with some Dettol Mould and Mildew Remover, gets rid of it in five minutes.
Squirt it on, make a brew, come back, shower it off. Job done
(Shower it off the tiles that is, not your body, obvs)

It is either rust which I get from a metal blind, or limescale from hard water which has iron oxide or similar in it. I use a brillo pad to clean it.0
