Any plumbers on here - looking for cheap advice!!!

If you are a plumber, could you answer me this question?

In my upstairs bathroom with bath, toilet and shower when I pull the plug out of the bath (when filled of course) water bubbles up from the shower plug hole for anything from 2sec to 10secs.

And its not a nice smell either

Not quite sewage smell, more eggy

Is something blocked somewhere? This has only started over the last few months yet have been in house 7 years.

Sounds like a partial block, after the shower tray; try some Mr Muscle Drain Cleaner:

If it doesn't work on the bubbling at least your pipes will smell sweeter.
