At last a shower
Yesterday on the project we tackled the shower - - - after discovering that the closure end panels would not go into the top and bottom rails the other day i had resolved that issue by doctoring the front face of one half of the joints.
Putting it together in such a confined space wasnt easy but after some j - -j - - jiggling we manged it and from then on it was plain sailing - - - well almost. We had noticed the shower head didn't look right when it was assembled it was far too loose flopping around on a little ball joint that obviously was meant to allow you to have the head in slightly different positions. I phoned the manufacturers and described what we had and was told "well that sounds OK" - - -b******t holding a bucket underneath the head, we still had some wet silicone about, we switched it on and the water came out the top of the head and hit the roof.
Phoning this time the suppliers and going through the usual irritating options i finished up 14th in a queue - - - No thanks! - - - we fired off an e mail with pictures and expect an answer about christmas.
The hand set bit of the shower also had a washer missing but some swapping around of other washers meant we finally had a working shower
Tadaaaaaaa! Letting the silicone go off we indulged ourselves in the evening luxuriating in the warm water. First shower for a week and a day, it's OK when you imagine having no shower for a week but in reality after the second day the novelty has definitely worn off !
While Sally prepared dinner i realised that the shower head could be botched, having zero confidence that the supplier, victorianplumbing.com would come to our rescue. I assembled the bits and then filled in the void where obviously a huge rubber washer should be with silicone and then the whole unit sat on the hearth by the log burner in an attempt to help it go off. It will be tested shortly.
I'm, going to have a few days off from the project now we have all 3 new facilities in place. Cant wait to stride the hills!
Its Sally's birthday today - - - what more could a girl want than - - a shower - - - Happy Birthday

The Express banners have Mr F as the only bloke to talk to Mr T over the pond - - Mmmmm and a list of the 10 best veg that are good for you - - -
I thought this front page of the London Evening Standard looked cool, having picked it out of the paperboy front page line up i scan every morning. On going to their webpage it isnt there and the spirit of christmas is not in London it appears - - -
