Whoever can solve this one will have my eternal thanks!!
I have resealed the gap between my bath and the tiles 5 times. I have had advice from a man in a hardwear shop. I have even bought expensive sealers, but I still get a few drips from under the bath lip and quite a trickle from where the shower door joins to the wall. I have silicaned everwhere but still it drips through. The tiles were fitted after the bath was in place all by a reputable plumber last March. I have even tried using duck tape just to elliminate possible drip sites, but it doesn't work. I am thinking of haveing it all installed again!!!

If i recall as the side supporting the shower splash gaurd is fitted you have to seal in the bottom of the U strip with silicone...else water gets through the screw holes, plus check your grouting is water proof.
