I only really stuck it up so it can come down again to fit a thermal blind later.

 

Yes, still dolphins. :(

I had to ask, is that a basin or a urinal?    :ph34r:

 

I said to SWMBO earlier:

 

"I just went to the loo and washed my hands in the new sink!"

 

I had to clarify.

Got to love women! ? A weekend I won't forget in a hurry.

 

Friday night I get home and SWMBO decides "the sink would look better where the shower is"! Just the small matter of moving the window and a bit of re-tiling...Just glad I used screws not nails!

Just when they thought it was all over...

 

I was going to dump the tile off cuts:

I've got these and 5 boxes of 10 unused tiles. (Long story, but I got more than ordered).

 

Got to decide what I'm doing in the cupboard. Well, I want to tile it...SWMBO wants to "save the tiles for when we do the ensuite"...like 50 tiles are going to go very far! They'd finish off the cupboard though.

Maybe a full width, removable panel mid way up the rear wall, so I can get to the supply valve and my arm in to the back of the Geberit still.

I might tile around as far as as the vertical slot where the loo rolls are going to stack

I'm feeling it might be time to re look at the magazine fed bog roll dispenser idea!

It's that disembodied hand again - are you the Munsters (or that might be the Addams)?

 

Here's hoping that it doesn't goose the postman.

pre boarding

 

That reminds me of one of my favourite plumbing-sounding words: Prebend.

 

Quote

"Prebend

1.the portion of the revenues of a cathedral or collegiate church formerly granted to a canon or member of the chapter as his stipend.

2another term for prebendary."

 

A prebendary is not something done to you before you get an invoice from the Council. It is:

 

Quote
prebendary
noun
 
  1. an honorary canon.
    a canon of a cathedral or collegiate church whose income originally came from a prebend.

 

Having made the obligatory extend-onoff's-thread contribution, I can begin my day.

The back wall will get a quick coat of something pre boarding out just so it looks all neat and tidy when I take the removable panel off.

 

Did you work for Bentley in a former life ...?? 

 

Why not install it as a truth panel so future generations can see how it all began ..?

 

and then just move on to another project and call this one ....

 

...finished.....??
