Watching Hot Tub Britain on ITV....totally common and housing scheme or what?

[Nothanks18]

Would hate to be the neighbour of the people on this programme!

Brrr bit cold for a hot tub.

Felix I'm in awe of your sister! I don't know anybody with a hot tub but whenever I see people with them on TV etc I can't help but think 'I bet they've shagged in that'. I dunno whether they're common, I'll ask my mum a proper Waitrose shopping, privately educated and sent her DC and GDC to private school, Devon dwelling type , she knows about these kind of things.

Genuine question, surely the neighbours would see? Unless you live in a completely detached house which isn't overlooked at all.

Perhaps the fun is in the fact that the neighbours can see Loafers

It just seems so much faff! Even if I wanted to have a bath in full view of the neighbours, which I dont, getting changed, getting in, getting out, towels, walking through the house to get changed back.....cant.be.arsed.

This is why I hate BBQs and paddling pools. They cooker and the bath are in the house for a reason people!! I only do the paddling pool because although I do have to fart about with towels, wet floors etc, it means an afternoon in the sun with my kindle and the kids are entertaining themselves!

Oh and I hate the phrase "garden living" or "bringing the garden into the home"
Fuck. Off.

Gardens are outside, everything else is inside.

I would tarmac the world tbh, much less work :o

I genuinely don't get them. We have one, attached to our pool, but the only people that use it are the kids and their friends. It's too hot and, even though I chlorine the shit out of it, I guarantee some of those pesky kids have peed in it. We aren't overlooked, which is good. The idea of sitting in one in our old back garden in the UK, with neighbours on both sides watching from their toilet seat? Ewww!

bogey I hadn't thought of that . I am loving 'a bath in full view of the neighbours'... that's what it, essentially, is!

This would make my mum clutch her pearls but I'd probably get really pissed and find it hilarious to flash my tits to the neighbour. I'll get my coat...

That is a nice goat.

We are not on benefits but I have been considering a goat because then I wouldn't have to garden.

Is it OK to get a goat if you are not on benefits or is there some sort of means test?

Morloth only people on benefits can have a goat.

Once I worked in a gym...

The disgusting things you find when you drain a hot tub!!

(Misses the point of the thread)

I'd probably get really pissed and find it hilarious to flash my tits to the neighbour.

That is the other reason, faffing aside, that I wouldnt have one. I too would partake rather too heavily of the chablis and then think it utterly hilarious to be loud and rude and naked in full view of the neighbours. I do at least have self awareness :o

curious

Well?! What disgusting things do you find?!

You can get pregnant by sitting in a hot tub that a man has wanked in. The bubbles keep the sperm suspended in the water ready to seek a receptive ovary.

Yes, Curious I now want to know what you found! I once found my teenage son's best friends boxers in ours. It wasn't pretty.

Well... Toenails. Sanitary... Um... Products. Condoms. Peely skin... And actual shit.

(And it was a naice gym!)

Hot tubs provide a lovely place for rats to live underneath. Lovely and warm for them and the baby ratties.

People shit in the hot tub?!!!

See, this is the same reason I won't go in the sauna either.

I'm a bit worried, my DM (aged 74) is having a hot tub installed in her solarium next week. I can't imagine her kitkat mahjong club is getting up to naughty business..

Eurgh! Tampons and shit?

How fucking rank is that?! Toenails and skin is horrible, but tampons and shit?!

I never cease to be amazed at the level of disgustingness (a word? not sure!) some people are capable of!

Squoosh no you cant, thats a myth. Even if the water isnt properly sterilized with chemicals, the heat of the water in your average hot tub would kill the sperm stone dead in seconds. Given that a reproductively healthy woman only has a 25% chance of pregnancy when having PIV sex at her fertile time with an equally reproductively health man, the chances of a random sperm finding its way to her egg are so small that it would be considered statistically impossible. Any woman who claimed it happened is a woman who got pregnant the month her hubbie was working away, was shagging someone else and needed a good excuse!

Can't you get legionnaires disease from a hot tub? Tampons and shit aside....

Curious Yes, according to Auntie

Ummmm, Bogeyface......I was joking.
