I moved into a bungalow in January. Not my usual bag but it was all I could get near my estranged kids. It has a disabled converted bathroom with only a shower but I can't for the life of me see where a bath would've gone.
I absolutely need a hot soak!! I expend quite a considerable amount of effort and muscle work out in the lower back area and upper thighs.
I stuck a stand alone bath (it's not chavvy) in my garden. I'm sat now soaking the efforts of 12 hours at Amazon warehouse off which I'm gonna say is way harder than an all nighter princess shag.
I'm sat listening to the world around me (no they can't see) soaking away in a bath in my garden  am I mad? |

"Should have got yourself a hot tub!  "
Got one!
Costs £17 to heat it and £5 a day to keep it warm! That's in the autumn. Beggars belief what it would be in the winter.
Plus a hot tub gets to 40 degrees where I want to start at 55 and boil my skin off then cool right off. I also am finding I prefer the outdoor air without bath steam. How peculiar! |

My dear old mum RIP had a sit in bathtub installed in her tiny bathroom in Worthing as she was unable to climb into an ordinary one. It had the same footprint as a shower tray and would double up as a shower for my father to use.
I have no idea on price though and could be as expensive as a hot tub. |

Not mad at all, do what you can to be as comfortable as you can. If you ever want to soak indoors in the warm. Come to us. Indoor hot tub, music, lights, pool table and drinks xx G |

Not at all.
I once went to a ‘cabin in the woods’ in Wales, which turned out to be a shed
But it had the amazing added element of a bath sunk into the side of hill, leading down to the woods. We set a (washing machine drum) fire going, got the (plastic) flutes charged with prosecco and had a (surprisingly hot) bath under the stars. It was snowing. It was magical. |

Ooo interested in how the washing machine drum fire was used to heat the water now.... I have one of those firepits I made myself.
The engineering brain is kicking in and thinking recirculating water in a metal bin - pump it in the bottom and overflow tube at the top back into the bath. |

I wondered that too!"
If it was my own house I would instal a hot outside tap as well as it's really not that big a job to do. |
