Default I have my life back.

Don't ever remodel a bathroom. It is an endless project that will take 3 times as long as you thought and cost 823 times as much quid.

But, here it is. My daughter is eternally grateful because we are now moving out of her bathroom.






The shower. The towel warmer also serves as the heat source for the room.







Pooing room. The original bathroom didn't have a separate poo room, so this whole thing is new.
Now the bathroom is a multi-user facility. Nice.




and the most painful part of the whole project. Putting crown molding in a corner with a sloped ceiling. I ate up about 43 meters of molding trying to get the cuts right.

Looks fantastic. The granite you chose is almost identical to ours. Is it called Venetian Gold by chance?

no idea. my wife meticulously picked it out. I just wrote the check.
The counter and moving some of the plumbing in the shower is the only thing I didn't do myself.
It was completely gutted. Only the ceiling remained.

Nice work, Brian.

I'll assume that you chose not to show us the door to your secret tunnel that takes you to the big underground bunker where you folks in Los Alamos ....

I've probably said too much. Sorry 'bout that.

why do you always say "poo" and "pooing" rather than "poop" and "pooping"? I have not heard that much. I am sure that you have had many ruminations on the subject.
