There are fewer that are
1. reinforced not just the very thin/cheap feeling acrylic,
2. 1700 x800 (more that are 1700 x 750, but we do want the width)
3. Extra deep.
We really want to keep the width in the corridor so getting the width and depth would be a real bonus...or even just basically right. Squeezing in the girly bath would be the bonus really.
This one is reduced by 75% or so. 1800 x 900. It looks deep enough that you could have a diving board at one end.

Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
On Heir Hunters there was a case where spinster died intestate. Her sister in law had lived next door (?) and been friends forever, went on holidays together, etc for decades and looked after her as she started to become less able etc. Thing is, the sister in law's husband had died - if he'd not died he'd have inherited it all when the lady died.
Once the lady died, the sister in law wasn't entitled to anything under intestate laws as she was not a blood relative and had no children (children would have inherited in that case). Instead, the Heir hunters had to do the tracing exercise - and managed to drag up a hitherto unknown 2nd cousin from miles away to get the lot.0 -

But we need 1700 not 1800! 1800 by 800 (or wider) are easier to find I think!
(That is a really ugly bath panel too, but we'll be tiling it in anyway so doesn't matter0 -
I'd have accidents getting out of that as the sides look quite thick. Where I was lodging late last year there was a bath, with a half a tile of width round it ... upon standing up in the bath, my legs are too little to step out of the bath to safety - and in the last few seconds of that reach/stretch I'm in danger of my foot losing grip in the bath, or simply getting it wrong.This one is reduced by 75% or so. 1800 x 900.

. It's got a leaf waterfall tap for goodness sake!!
It's just delicate and pretty!
I can't find the pic of the tap. Am I being dim?Do you know anyone who's bereaved?

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0 -

Ah I see now. Yes, I agree with you then.Its cunningly disguised as a silver leaf on the picture of the bath itself...
Hadn't blown the pic up to big enough size to be able to see that. Thanks. Do you know anyone who's bereaved?
