Finishing my bottle of wine off in the bath

Had half a bottle of wine with my curry last night. Finishing it off now in the bath. DH thinks this is weird and unacceptable but I don’t really care. Any opinions? Or should I check myself in to AA?

Crack on, why not?!

MrsMitford3 · 09/03/2025 17:02

Have you put it in a glass or are you using a straw?? 😂

Gotitok · 09/03/2025 17:03

Drinking it out of the bottle🫢

Crack on OP! Just don’t spill it

LovelyHund · 09/03/2025 17:09

YABU because the thought of slippy hands and glass bottles scares me. I definitely did not buy a plastic cup specifically for this purpose....

Dahlietta · 09/03/2025 17:17

I hate drinking unless my upper body is entirely upright, so no wine in the bath for me.

AnAlpacaForChristmasPleaseSanta · 09/03/2025 17:18

@Gotitok Oh you are my kind of person! Many times I've poured wine into glasses, found there's a small amount left (which seems futile to put back in the fridge) and necked it out of the bottle. I remain unrepentant 😁.

Crack on, I'll be having a vino in the bath soon while I catch up on some reading as well!

TheGirlWhoLived · 09/03/2025 17:25

I’d love a glass of wine in the bath. With my kindle. Lunchboxes to make. Alas! Woe is me

don’t drink it out of a plastic cup though. Sacrilege

Clocloxx · 09/03/2025 17:25

Ugh I loved this! Relaxing bath glass of wine bottle by the side good book..currently pregnant so gotta wait awhile to do this again

TheGirlWhoLived · 09/03/2025 17:26

That's one of my favourite things to do. Unfortunately this thread has remained me that I'm out of wine and the shop is now closed, so I'm a little jealous of you tbh!

TheChosenTwo · 09/03/2025 17:27

Well I don’t really see an issue with it, I wouldn’t do it myself but I take my water bottle in to the bath with me!
Just a way to relax surely?

gingercat02 · 09/03/2025 17:30

Perfect Sunday evening. I love a glass of wine and a bath.

DSquared · 09/03/2025 17:32

Wine in the bath great but I wouldn't be up for a glass bottle in the bath.. also if the bathroom is hot won't it get warm quickly?

Plastic gin glass and ice!

Jemandthehollograms · 09/03/2025 17:33

I absolutely love a Prosecco in the bath!

GloriousBlue · 09/03/2025 17:33

Any time I've tried, the thought of it has been better than the reality.

Baths just dont work for me. Too warm, too bored.

If much rather have it in front of the fire, on dry land :)

coolmum123 · 09/03/2025 17:33

If it’s your thing go for it. Personally I won’t do it because wine and hot water can affect blood pressure so I would worry about fainting

JacqFrost · 09/03/2025 17:37

He's just jealous you thought of a way to finish off the bottle before he did. Crack on and enjoy I say. Simple pleasures on a Sunday afternoon.

Rainbow1235 · 09/03/2025 17:40

Enj I’m about to pour a large glass myself but I’m just out of the bath

Hedjwitch · 09/03/2025 17:40

Go for it. Sounds perfect

mumofoneAlonebutokay · 09/03/2025 17:41

Yanbu xxxx

diddl · 09/03/2025 17:42

Weird & unacceptable?

In what way?

Wine at 5, wine without food(?)

How does it affect him?

cait967 · 09/03/2025 17:43

And see the harm. That said I hate wine in the bath. I love wine and I love baths just not together

BinWim · 09/03/2025 17:43

Lovely, enjoy it.

Mind the water isn't too hot though, I've occasionally fainted after a bath wine if the bathroom gets too steamy.
