It’s surprisingly sensuous.....

I don’t know whether I should really admit to this but.....
rubbing washing up liquid all over a large bottle of water and rinsing it off is really rather nice!
Is there anything you find oddly appealing?

Recently our bath plughole was blocked DH removed u bend only to drop a piece. Quickly realized he can no longer fit through inspection hatch so I had to go in under the floor and clear blockage very satisfying though can't say sensual!

Agreed, that plug/hair idea makes me almost heave to think about it, yuk yuk.

Not sensual or sensuous in my book. I can see a clean plug hole would be nice but that is OHs' job unless I'm really desperate.

? hardly, Bathsheba!

*Bathsheba*, I think it can also mean “sensual”, though?

Well I'm not so sure. I think 'sensual' is usually taken to have a sexual connotation, while sensuous is purely about the senses. Can pulling hair from a bath plug be sexy? wink

Oh my word I cant put the word sensual with any of those things mentioned here, anything to do with cleaning or plug holes makes me feel sick not sensuous

I have a bath mat that says Let’s get naked now that’s sensuous ??

Definitely clean sheets and they must have been ironed!!!

I love hanging up fresh clean washing.

The smell of clean washing.

Eating or devouring a good egg custard tart with lots of nutmeg.

Smoothing lip balm onto chapped lips, soooo sensuous!

(There are a lot of dubious interpretations of the word 'sensuous' on here grin)

I have a soap dish that has "Lather me up" printed on it.

Sensuous? For me that's eating a banana ?

Kalu Tue 14-Jul-20 00:20:12

I have just got into a freshly made bed. Crisp white linens and the smell of fresh air lingering. Divine.

Bellanonna Tue 14-Jul-20 00:06:20

This gives “sensuous” a whole new meaning

Some of you love pulling hair out of bath plugs ?

Honestly?!!!?

Cleaning ears, whenever I am seen bearing cotton buds...run for your life

I love working up a lather and putting it gently on my face, like in the advert Katie Boyle did years ago, I think it was for Camay soap.
(Although its !a soap for sensitive skin, not quite the same).

Smileless2012 Mon 13-Jul-20 22:10:34

Me too, I love clean sheets.

GagaJo Mon 13-Jul-20 22:05:01

Actually, I cleaned the washing machine powder drawer this week (I don't ever use the drawer, but daughter does). Getting the gunk out with a toothbrush was AMAZING.

Thebeeb Mon 13-Jul-20 21:56:14

Removing hair from plug holes and clean sheets. Doesn’t take much to make me happy.

AllotmentLil Mon 13-Jul-20 21:36:48

I’m with Callistemon - bought two lovely new posh bars today! Doesn’t have to be posh mind you!

Pantglas2 Mon 13-Jul-20 21:25:38

I’m with Evie - clean sheets....ooh!
