I couldn’t go to bed if I hadn’t showered.

Same here. Shower after exercise or work and if it's been more than a few hours between that and bedtime I'll have a second quick one.

B otherwise I feel like crap then C depending on what ive been doing.  Its the main prohibitor for doing anything multi day that doesnt have a proper way of washing.

When ever I've tried to not shower in the morning I regret it.

For the record - wake up to a shower to be clean for the day.
Sweaty day / physical activity - likely another shower in evening.

Morning shower unless I am planning on getting mucky in the morning then after that. No point getting clean to then get mucky.

Evening, without fail.  Just feels wrong getting into bed feeling a bit grimy!

Routinely in the evening. You can't really get dirty lying in bed, which is also the place I least want to take the day's grime 😀

And also after a ride (including after my commute in the shower at work)

Every morning with fail. Of an evening if I’ve exercised or feel like it. I’m an office drone so don’t really get dirty or grimy throughout the day. Plus I have this amazing barrier to grime and dirt known as clothing!

Freely admit to only changing the bed clothes when it dawns on me that it needs doing. I don’t live in a ****ing hotel so it’s only my own sweat and juices I’m steeped in.

My granddad would get out of the bath to wash his face. His reasoning being “I’m not washing mi face in’t same wata mi arse has been in” a great Yorkshireman

After exercise.

If I’m injured or ill such that I can’t exercise, it’s always a bit of a mystery to me as to when to get clean!

Interested to know if the evening showerers are manual workers or office based

I'm an office monkey and even with working from home by myself long before the pandemic, I'm a morning showerer every single day and an evening shower after exercise or post ride at the weekend.

Evenings usually after tea or post ride. Work in the building trade so tend to get home smelling like graft. Do like a morning shower when I'm on my hols though.

Couple of times a week, but then I dont do much to get filthy, and I change my clothing near daily.

One thing I do like is just sitting in the shower, and I'll happily sit in there for an hour. I have always liked sitting in the rain, so must be related to that.

Anyone wear their socks in the shower ?.

When do you wash (Shower or bath)

Once I'm 'on the clock'! Nowt better than getting paid* to complete the 3 Ss 😁 (*when WFH. Tbf they get enough of my time for free anyway.)

I'm a morning person more often than not, and if commuting into the office by bike, will shower before getting ready, quick freshen shower once at work, then another brief freshen on getting home.

I only shower if I think I'm going to get lucky. So, not for the last 6 years now.

Morning on a work day, whenever I like on a non work day. Plus evening if been out for a ride. Like a bath after a long weekend ride.

Workday mornings before cycle commute to work . Weekends, slum it unless (a) going out: then before; (b) intense exercise: then after.

Another bugbear of mine, is people who wear shoes in the house, just why? Seems pretty grim to me.

Totally agree.
Another thing that surprised me during lock down , when video calling friends was people wearing outdoor clothes indoors.
As soon as I get in from work , I shower and change into slobby clothes. Wearing jeans indoors seems silly.
I couldn’t leave the house in joggers though ,so I have to put outdoor clothes on.
This also leads me to not to be able to compute having to put outdoor clothes on when we have friends over for dinner. We need an intermediate trouser between jaggy bots and jeans.
Another instance is being upstairs in a hotel and having to put outdoor shoes on to walk down carpets indoors to a dining room that’s indoors.

Follow up question – how often do you change your bed sheets and pillow cases?  I am at least weekly, sometimes more in summer.  And don’t start me on sleeping right under the duvet with no top sheet like an animal, and hardly ever changing the cover.  Gross.

No point showering at all to get into filthy sheets.

Yep every week. Fast wash. Nice feeling getting into clean sheets.

Never really got why people wouldn’t do it that way.

Hmm same here or the bidet if it’s not first thing,they are great bidets another thing I don’t get why people have no love for although they’ll happily spend x on wet wipes to get that dish washer freshness 🙂

Just had a morning shower as in a hotel and long day at work ahead. Normally see a morning shower as a treat/ desperate measure to wake up or feel better.

Generally just an evening shower post exercise, but flexible if I showered in the AM I don’t feel the need to shower twice a day having sat at a desk.
