    Beautiful website. I really want herringbone parquet like one of those bathrooms in my L-shaped house. And most of those baths too.

    D look stunning a very modern home to give warmth and depth in a way engineered floors cannot.

    I would read.

    I read the daughter of smoke and one this week and really enjoyed it. Not profound but the pans labyrinth comparison was fair.

    I would read also. In the bath. I can kill hours in the bath. Ive had two today.

    You don't get baths in little single hotel rooms :) or in most single accommodation, including studio flats... and even most 1-bed flats. It's really annoying!

    I am glad I've got an en-suite room though... that's luxury for you! No door on it though....

    Our ensite is 8x6.6 and has a walk in wet area shower with a side panel and a standalone both. The toilet is wall hng with a concealed cistern but I admit the basin is small and there is no bidet. As DG states, it only works with the door in the centre of the long side.
    I think....

    My whole room isn't a lot bigger than that. It's a big single, but it's about 10x7. I've certainly seen smaller singles (and smaller doubles to be fair).

    How many baths do you want to have in your L-shaped house, Doozer?

    The first one looks like a cross between a bidet and a drinking fountain.

    Light isn't good here for reading. I am north-facing, there are HUGE trees out the back ... and there are only low energy lightbulbs in here. I was online... that's like reading isn't it :)
    As you can clearly read from a screen, why not pop over to the Saki site GDB posted a few days ago and read a short story- they're only a few minutes each.
    Or for some non-fiction, try the Squashed Philosophers site and have an accelerated philosophy course.:beer:
