Thanks keystone. I have found lot of details about tanking. Let me read on that and understand how to do it!!
I dont know how strong the wall is, by the sound of it, it doesnt sound very strong. Is there a chance that I damage the wall while trying to remove the tiles?
Also, you think that it is not possible to stick a wall panel and seal the edges where it meets the tiles with something? the walls jujst have to be splash proof rt? They dont need to be water proof?0 -
Hang on a minute - brain slow tonight. Its a rental so landlord won't want you doing too much. Have you thought of one of these:

Anything from £ 20 at Argos upwards.

We got a shower thingy from er hombase I think, which attaches to the taps and you attach the shower nozzle to the wall, the we put one of those square ish shower rail up and make sure the curtains are tucked carefully around the taps and wall.
I hope that makes sense.

Thanks keystone and sarah. I think what you have suggested is the most feasible option for me. Will give a bisit to homebase and argos this weekend.
Thanks
