More Shopping, less walls and water and gas

This is the biggest bargain from eBay. When it arrived it took me 30 seconds to work out what was in the box.... it's huge, nearly 2 foot high. The spray on the end is 4" long alone... and it weighs a ton!

Well, a few more purchase.... This was the light we found at Morgans, but when I saw this ex-display on eBay for half price I had to get it....

These are for over the mirror in the ensuite - we may put it upside down
We've got 8 of these, initially for the wall in the main room, but we may only use 6 or 4 of them and put the remainder in the bathroom. Shades and Shadows dropped the postage when we ordered this lot!
Sarah found these on eBay for the ensuite.

Again, eBay for the ensuite.
The fancy electronic controller took an unplanned dive when the shop were inspecting it (they were good enough to admit it before sending it so all credit to them), so we had to find an alternative. These retail at £300 but Plumbworld eBay some of there stuff too so we got it for £100!

Been a busy week in the house as well.... The extension first floor is now almost fully plasterboarded - all the more annoying that there is a bad leak over the bow window. The electric UFH is going into the ensuite and Sarah has gone mad at the tile shop! Black slate for the floor and gloss black for the walls! All the wiring is in up there too.... However....

The wall between the bathroom/office and the extension developed a huge crack on Wednesday. When the steel went in Geoff decided it was unsafe (we had agreed before that if it moved when the beam went in we'd have it rebuilt) so the whole wall has gone and they'll be rebuilding it this week. So the bath is 'freestanding' at the moment - and the shower is hanging in thin air. We have to clean our teeth downstairs or in the bath as the sink in the bathroom empties over the electric meter.... ooer...

The new water main was laid on friday as was the gas pipe. We should be getting connected to both next week sometime - the gas is scheduled for thurs/fri, but the water needs organising.

Loft floor is going in next week, ready for the boiler and tank (coming Tuesday - eventually) and then getting connected to the water/gas.

We have decided to get out for 2 weeks during November to get the remaining structural stuff done - mainly the floors and heating. Straight after that the kitchen needs to go in
