The bathroom is really taking shape now, the new toilet was plumbed in and the wash basin has been hung on the wall but there's still a bit of work to finish it off. The bath has also been plumbed in and the bath panel was fixed:











Now, whenever anyone tells you that white is white is white, do not believe them! Someone (probably a salesman!) told us that it didn't matter which brand of sanitary ware you bought, as if you mixed them they would match as white is white. Not so! The toilet is a very bright white but the wash basin is a creamy white. Too late to do anything about it now but if we could remember who told us, and it turned out that it was the supplier we bought them from, we might be asking them to change something.


The last remaining slates have been fixed on the kitchen extension roof. It's a pity that the seagulls have already started to use it for target practice.



The ceiling in the left hand bedroom has now had the final pieces of plasterboard fixed in place after checking that all the plumbing is OK for the en-suite above and it's now ready for plastering.

After a clear up, space was found to store the kitchen which will be delivered on Monday. The new lounge suite also needs to come over soon as it wont go up the stairs to our present accommodation.
