In the bath
Gratuitous nudity? Not quite. “Look at me! Look at me!” ?? No. I just thought this would be funny.
I’m genuinely quite intrigued by the fact that American men simply seem to NOT take a bath – only showers. And yesterday, someone questioned whether I really did take baths here, and when was the last time I had one.
So in answer to that question, it was Monday night, as shown here:
Don’t panic. You’ll never see anymore of me that this ever again. Normal service will resume Thursday with a blow-by-blow breakdown of my first ever Thanksgiving.

So for ten weeks in June, July and August 2009, I drove 20,000 miles around the the lower 48 contiguous states of the USA visiting towns and places that shared the same name as places on The London
More worrying is the look of fear on your face Geoff?
It didn’t make me go aaaah, but it did give me a great laugh. thanks.
the things you see on blogs eh?
The picture also made me laugh! Why so serious? Jus relax and enjoy a British thing! ( a bath )
My Eyes!!!
This is true, why do I look so grumpy? I can assure you I was having a very relaxing and pleasant time.
Glad to have brought a smile to your faces…
quite disturbing, really.
To emphasize the point that American’s don’t take baths, I can’t even remember the last time I took one…unless you count the time I went to Niagra Falls with my girlie and we took a jacuzzi bath…but I wouldn’t count that cause there wasn’t much relaxation or cleaning going on :-/
My dream bathroom would have to include this lovely shower.
thanks brent … more information then we needed to know!
but if anyone else would like to send in a picture of themselves looking happy in a bath, i’d be more than happy to post it up here. you know my email address …
hmm. maybe i should lock down the comments on my blog, and insist you all register with ‘bath avatars’ …
small bath you have there!! *g* Ours is fab as I can lay down completely in it (and drown in process if I did)
Even hubby doesn’t need to bend his legs particularly
I think history might repeat itself here! (that’s if you were still in the UK Geoff!)
Phew, at least this isn’t a post about the last time you took a shower…
That pic is wrong on sooooooo many levels. hehe
“Aaaaah?”
“Arrrrrgh!” more like.
At least you werent taking a pee!
Just look at you! It appears as if you are quite uncomfortable, your neck will get a
kink in it, your knees will get cold, and that your bathroom is severely over-populated.
You are weakening your case for baths.
#13 – Tami, how do we know he wasn’t?
Hey, i’ve been known to pee in the shower. C’mon… we all do it, right?
phew… is it me or is it getting hot in here?
Too much visual information Geoff, last time I saw you in a bath, you were about 6yrs old!
I’m sure half the thing with American baths is that the baths, IMHE, just aren’t as deep as your standard UK bath. ~x~
I have never peed in the shower Geoff.
It is sick and wrong.
Neil – what were you doing in MY shower? whether you were peeing or not!!
American men take baths whenever they feel like it. I took one tonight, and I smell lovely.
So there.
