Shower Power

Rob has taken all the bits from all the broken showers and made one shower that works in the small bathroom. This was working well until we discovered that the drain water was leaking into the small third bedroom. So we can't use that bath/shower for some time! We then had to be brave and use the large but very ugly bathroom with hideous black bath and sink (at least we removed the pink toilet seat). There is a large but damaged shower in there. Unfortunately, there is now something wrong with the draining i.e. it takes forever for the shower to drain and if you take too long in the shower (which is more than five minutes) the shower almost overflows! This now means that we need to take short showers or use the dreaded black bath (with no rail for a shower curtain). Talk about being between a rock and... an ugly place!








Art Room

We have temporarily made the Wendy into an art room. These are some old pics of the process. We would like to set the computer up in there but not without ADT Security! Now, just to have some time to create some good art :-)

One Mystery Solved

We found out that the concrete supports in the garden are from a junglegym! Our house used to be a nursery school (Montessori) and one of the mothers came to see our granny flat for rental.
