    This "L" shaped one seems to have a beefy shower: http://www.victorianbathrooms4u.com/L-Shape-1700-Shower-Bath-6189

    I know it cannot be l or p shaed, has to be a symetrical and a stepraight side. The first one only loads a bit for me, but might be the idea from the corner i see.:). I am thinking of having a 'bath' made and tiled out instead though.

    Like a mini swimming pool?

    Edit: having googled it, I guess you mean like this: http://www.cabuchon.com/bespokebaths.htm

    I've only heard of Chinese supermarkets since I visited MSE.... never been in one or seen one.
    They're part of my ready reckoner for whether you're living in a town or a city. I'd posted on another thread ages ago that if where you live has more than one chinese supermarket/ mall/ multiplex/ university that's when you know you're in a real city.:D

    The bath in this one (page is for the screen, but it shows a bath in the photo) looks small, but comfortable... and the shower over it looks OK. I'm guessing the screen moves out of the way else I could see some nasty accidents occurring trying to get into this http://www.splashdirect.com/Showers/Shower-Screens/Fixed-Pivot-Screens/sc1645/p18095.aspx

    LOL. Yes, the city I lived 20 miles from until recently had 20,000 residents.... which is really a big village.

    Just googled a "search nearby" for chinese supermarket.... seems to be at least one. The biggest in the county stocks 2500 lines, it supplies most restaurants and they have two shops and their warehouse within 3-4 miles of me.

    I'll put that on my list of places to visit when I get a home.

    I am also looking at bathrooms as i go, trying to get inspiration for a layout for a small bathroom that does not make a shower over bath feel like a compromise in the small space.

    How small?
