I have one that's about 40 years old, it was passed on to me when I had my daughter and then not needed sadly and then I used it for my son and it's back in the attic with all the other baby stuff lol

I think somewhere I still have the enamel bath Mum used for us lot and then I used to use it on top of the cooker to dye my undies pretty colours lol

Pretty sure I grabbed it when Mum died and the house was cleared.

Has bit the dust! It has a star shaped crack in the base and can no longer be used to wash cats bedding or the back door mat in. When we first bought it, it was to use as a sink as we lived in a cottage with no plumbing. We also could kneel down in it and get ourselves a good wash down. Then it was used for the job it was meant for. Of latter years it has carted the washing out to the line, ajob I think it will still do. Made by Bex, it was about the best value for money we have had.
