Still over the moon with new bathroom, lovely to be home from in-laws and to have a room that's entirely 'us'. Will take a couple of boxes of tiles and some trim back for a refund tomorrow, Mrs E has been told that she can spend the refund on fluffy new towels
£3.53 to Monthly Project from a MB, 91p OPed.
This week has been one of eating nonsense, drinking too much and takeaways. Back to normal from next week
Happy weekend all.0 -

Glad to hear you're happy with it. Can't think of a punishment worse than having to spend a week with my in-laws though. :rotfl: 2018 totals:

Luckily they weren't there Alex, but they're good people, very friendly
80p OPed, £500 paid to S&S ISA on Thursday has cleared. I'm either an investing genius or very lucky, caught the dead cat bounce quite the thing :rotfl:
