I'm pouring over bathroom catalogues. Our extensions at Tarzali will be starting soon and we've never been involved in a new "build" before. But we've been told that all the bathroom fittings need to be decided now, so the correctly placed outlets can go into the concrete pad. So it's decision time. As we're sticking with the country cottage look, we're opting for this bath.
I've never been a great one for baths, but the red dirt of the Tablelands has a habit of clinging to one's toes, so a good long soak is a must. Plus, this bath looks so inviting, I think. I'll position a small stool close by for a drink and a book, of course!! (And yes, we'll have a shower as well. This is still the tropics, after all. :)
And we've found a lovely vanity made from silky oak with gorgeous old fashioned tiles in greens and pinks that will match the old, recycled, green and pink windows E's restoring. So fingers crossed, the builder approves. (It's 4 mm bigger than the max width he allowed us).
OK, back to work. I'm a little over halfway into this book, with a big dramatic scene looming, but I have to create a lovely, gentle scene first... At least that's the plan... :)

That's a gorgeous looking bath! Stay warm in Melbourne! I don't think you could get me down there at this time of year :)
What a gorgeous bath. I think you need to experience it, and then write about it in a future book!! 4mm?? I hope it doesn't make a difference!!
Yes, you Northern types need to rug up very warmly!!!! I love the cold and the icy frosts but I can not cope with the heat!!
I love the bath, love freestanding baths.
coming from england i love a nice hot bath
Jenny, I've certainly gained the impression that the English love their baths. I wonder why that is. I think in Australia, we mostly shower, and taking a bath is considered something to do when "you have more time" or when you've "earned it". Would others agree?
I like bath because they are so relaxing and when it is cold there is nothing better than a hot bath
