to think not many people do this in real life?

Drink wine in the bath that is? Watching a film and the main character just had a glass of red wine whilst having a bath.

I'm 50 and I think I gave it a go once maybe 20 years ago, decided that the combo of alcohol and a hot bath was terrible and have never done it since.

YANBU: of course no one does this other than in films, what a terrible idea

YABU: wine in the bath is one of the main joys in life, you're missing out you pleb

Winter time. Insanely hot bath. Window open with cold breeze. Glass of wine.

Chef kiss.

@theduchessofspork ah see, lemon I would have done the same. Would even have gone so far as to assume I was getting some kind of cleansing benefit from them.
But the berries were grossing me out, and I'd frozen them so they were already a bit on the mushy side before even hitting the water

I go for tea or gin I’m the bath.

My husband would have 3 course meal in there if I allowed him! I say allowed like he has to get my permission for everything lol he doesn't! Just to b clear!

I love wine and baths but not together. I like to lay back in the bath and I can’t sip laying down so it’s not for me.

I've done it tonight! Candles, low lights, either a book or a film on my laptop, and a glass of wine! I don't do it often, but when I do...love it.

I don’t get it. Wouldn’t you be more comfortable with your book, candles and wine wrapped up cosily on a squishy sofa or bed than in a hard bath?

I find wine revolting at any time and location but I do like a tea in the bath 😁

Large Diet Coke with ice is best. Last time I tried wine I went a bit faint.

I like a cuppa in the shower 🚿 maybe in the minority there 😂

Love wine, hate baths.

and shower wine isn’t really a thing unfortunately

Yup, it's one of the things I really miss in Dry January.

It must be over a decade since I had a bath, it won't work so we'll in the shower. But no I don't like idea. One of my exes used to smoke in the bath, disgusting

I’d not eat in the bath, for some reason I find that a bit off, but I’m all for a glass of wine relaxing in one., in fact I find a bath dull without one.

im not a bath person, but we had a lovely roll top bath installed. So I did the whole thing, candles, glass of wine, low lights, music on, and really liked it.

i then did it every night for a week, decided I was going to end up a right alkie , so stopped, and haven’t been in it since. 😂

My baths are boiling hot so I prefer icy drinks: a large G&T and a silly novel are ideal.

I remember trying it. Candles, soft music, book, wine. I was totally bored after 2 minutes and got out.

On the other hand I've gone for a quick bath and been there an hour later with multiple hot water top ups!

Makes me feel all peculiar just not comfortable

When I had a bathtub... I would bring a good whiskey with two ice cubes. A cold glass of water on the side. The window just cracked open a little. And I would also have one illicit cigarette looking up into the steam. And Vivaldi in the background.
Sometimes I really miss that (although I'll never smoke again).

I don't really like drinking in the bath but I have been known to have a sandwich in the bath after a long day 😂

Getting one of those bath tray things has totally transformed the whole glass of wine in the bath experience. Every Friday, I finish work, do an exercise class, have a really quick tea (often beans on toast) and then get in the bath with a book and a glass of wine. By the end of that, work is a distant memory and I'm ready for the weekend. The only problem is that we recently got a new, longer bath and I can no longer reach the taps with my toes to add more hot water. Sitting up and stretching over to them is such an effort!

Not often but I've been known to do it - it's mainly rare because I usually bathe in the morning, which is a bit early for wine!

Mines just running now 🥰

Hot bath, cold bottle of cider, window open for crisp cold air, my kindle and a battery operated lamp for soft light....bliss!

I didn't think many people have baths anymore let alone wine while they're having one

@Decafflatteplease
Bliss 🥰
Now and then my DP will run me a bath for coming home and have a cold cider or wine on the side and a podcast or spotify ready to go, great way to relax.

Thanks to this thread I am now in the bath and it’s lovely! No wine, although I do occasionally, but a pint of orange and mango squash with lots of ice, my kindle, Spotify, lights down low and the window open - perfection!

I also have a thing that goes over the overflow so the bath stays full to brim and I can get my shoulders and knees under at the same time…
