No. I was going to say the same as Jac and Maggie about the tin bath, it used to hang on a nail in the back yard. I think it was a generation thing back then that you didn't see bits of your parents! I certainly shared a bath with my children when they were younger.

My brother and I used to bath with my father till we were about 4.

Real good fun, I remember as we were allowed to get the sponge very soapy and had suds coming over the top of the bath.

My mum used to shout if we got them on the floor.

No never, but I remember having a bath in the tin bath in front of the fire (showing my age now!). You had to be careful you didn't burn your botty on the part that faced the fire!

no muffy, not with parents, but with my two kid brothers. we had some plastic boats which we filled up with water and sprayed them at the light bulb, it burst and we all ended up with glass in our backs! Happy days!
we did have our little girl in the bath with us til about 7 years old.
