When very small I used to love baths so much that I'd never want to get out. This annoyed my parents so they invented a monster called Tommy Splodger who lived down the plughole and would come and eat me if I stayed in the bath too long. They told me the gurgling of the water going down the plughole was the noise Tommy made. I became very afraid of baths.
