I don't need all you single bath truthers rejecting my ideas. You heard Dan yesterday: he has a shrinking potion. They're swimming in that tub!

Oh, heck, now I’m imagining tiny Dan and Phil swimming in that tub. It’s too cute.

Dan’s latest IG angle screams “I’m avoiding the toes by my head.”

Conversely, I’m bored at work.
My hat is basically glued to my head at this point. I shall go ahead and say "well, Phil loves baths as well and he hasn't posted about his. Coincidence? I think the fuck not 8-) :sherlock: :spy:

i never managed to fit in the tub with my ex and I am definitely half their size so if they manage I feel like they should share it just to teach us HOW
Sorry but this whole thing just reminded me of this tweet from lush last year

True but that supports the theory that they share the same room

As long as Phil provides what the people (me) want (please) aka a bath selfie (I'm begging) with a mask and kinda floppy quiff (MY GOD) then I'm good with whatever theory even them renting every single room in the hotel then just dropping bath bombs in each of them
Will probably never be over the BONCAS and the beauty of Phil Lester.

Phil’s bath bomb boomerang is oddly hypnotizing, it reminds me of an octopus. Saw the above point made on Tumblr and was completely unphased. Like yeah, so?

While there’s still time before a potential Phil-in-the-bath photo hits, can I put in a request for no mask, please? Fricking terrifying. I’ve totally missed his bath bomb boomerang, though, so he’s probably already taken whatever photos he’s planning on taking,

obviously they're sharing a hotel room,no doubt, but i just wanna know– if phil took a bath right after dan, i hope that doesn't mean that dan took 4 whole hours in there...
maybe they were getting ready for some mpreg alien role-play after.

I don't suffer from trypophobia, but Phil's boomerang is squicking me out, something about those perfect line of holes/bubbles. Nope, nope, nope.

Still less traumatising than Dan's last story though.

Yay bathbombs! but Ewww - I can't imagine taking a bath at a hotel without personally scrubbing it out first :yuck:
And same, Phil, same. Separate taps is one of my biggest annoyances about the UK (seems to be rather prevalent here). Let me just simultaneously scald and freeze my skin; that's going to do wonders for my Raynauds.

Yeah, loads of sinks and baths have separate taps. Kitchen sinks these days often have one combined, but two is fairly normal. I wonder if he burned a foot or froze it.

I think the photo was of the sink, not the bath, but yes, it's common for both to be like that. Thankfully they're becoming less common now as new builds/renovated houses won't have them. A lot of us have to suffer though (me included).
It's all to do with how the hot water is/was supplied. Houses with two taps would have a tank in the loft that would supply the hot water tank which is used for central heating and hot water. Because that water was sitting in a tank before use, and may be uncovered or have might have had stuff fall in over time it wasn't safe to drink or run through the same pipes as the cold drinking water - hence the two taps.

Even when the house is updated the taps often aren't. We have a combi-boiler, so the hot water is heated up from the mains as needed, but I still have to suffer when using the bathroom sink taps as they haven't been replaced. It's not fun having to quickly swish you hands between boiling hot and freezing cold to get something tolerable when trying to wash your mouth out after brushing your teeth, let me tell you!

:lol: pretty much my reaction exactly
We’ve really been getting spoiled with Dan’s collarbones lately. It surprised me that they’re so prominent that water gets stuck in the dip. Is that normal for people with really pronounced collarbones? Mine are basically non existent so that seemed kinda crazy to me.

That's. Our. Dan."

Omg same I didn’t know that was a thing but I for sure have it and I hated seeing the bubbles/holes from it. Even typIng this out makes me feel yucky. :wahh:

Re: Dan's collarbones. Dan has pretty pronounced bones in general right now. It actually startled me in the WITL video.

Don't come for me, but is that normal? Is it just the angle and that he's trying to show off his nipples? Because it looks like he could fit his own hands around his waist.

I would guess that he's sucking in his stomach/pushing out his ribs to showcase his nipples. It's an awkward angle, too, so that might be part of it. He is definitely looking thinner recently, but his overall demeanor seems happier and healthier than it has been in the past, so, I wouldn't worry too much.

You're right about his overall demeanor lately. Both Dan and Phil seem more chill and comfortable lately. I find it difficult not to worry and I know that about myself, so I appreciate the perspective. :love1:

The prices for both Manchester shows, as well as the Liverpool evening show have been reduced quite a bit, if anyone's interested in getting cheap tickets!

Both Dan's bath selfie and Phil's boomerang disturbed me (I have trypophobia) and bathtubs suck in general tbh. They're uncomfortable, small and filthy.
