I have a bath every night, no matter the weather. 30 mins reading my current book before washing and shaving. I have a bath thermometer and keep the temperature at 43.5 degrees c. Usually some muscle relaxing herbal bath salts. It's the best part of the day. Pure bliss.

You don't have kids do you? If you tried to do that with young kiddos they would join you, or if they've gone to bed already, you'd fall asleep in there instead.

I have two kids, 3 and 10. This is my time, after they're in bed.

Excellent, go you mumma!

We're too knackered by the time the kids (and pets) go to bed (3 and 7, and a border collie 11-month old puppy)
