So it's all over, Christmas was my usual mix of driving up and down the M1 and eating and drinking copius amounts of food and drink.
In between I spent a day and a half finishing our bathroom. I got professionals to do the tiling and plumbing and in my head they were going to leave the bathroom in perfect order for us to start using it again. I was naive to say the least. We got porcelain tiles, normal tile drill bits dissolve when trying to drill in to the damn things. I ended up getting diamond tipped hollow drill bits at 20 odd quid to the job. Each hole took at least 5 minutes to drill, using a water spray to dampen the bit and keep it cool.
The bath panel took me almost 5 hours to fit, using an electric plane to take a quarter of a mil off each time, I was determined to have no gaps, no easy task when there doesn't appear to be a straight surface in our house.
Here are a few snaps of the finished article.

I got a gorillapod in my christmas box, I have been attaching it to every available surface. It's a great yolk altogether.
