1) Tuesday 11th August - the downstairs toilet
gets a new white corner washbasin. Those very-dated
tiles need to go.... 2)
The Toilet was replaced too. Remember the old green one?
Horrid! This is a Twyford Interflush water-saving
toilet. Coolest toilet ever! Note that the old toilet
was much bigger so it left a bit of a mess at the back
where there is no paint behind the cistern.
3 & 4) Pictured Wednesday the 19th August these
photo's of the dowstairs loo show the new splashback
tiles going in around the sink. These are leftover tiles
from the Kitchen walls and were skillfully tiled here by
Mark. |

5) Monday 31st August - the tiling and repainting
in the downstairs loo is complete. Here are the new
tiles all grouted and sealed up. 6) Here is the
toilet with the area behind filled, sanded and painted.
7) In connection wih the install of the KWB
Easyfire Wood Pellet Boiler in the garage; we now have
yet another new Thermostat in the Lounge stair-well. It
is in a somewhat less-than-suitable metallic-grey
plastic. It has several knobs and buttons to keep Milla
amused as it is within her arms reach. We see trouble
ahead. 8) August 2010 - he first of two new
radiators for the lounge after the old ones rusted away.
This one was leaking water profusely and desperately need
changing before the next winter. We took the chance to
choose the 'next-size-up' radiator as the lounge area is
hard to heat. |

9) The second new radiator at the window facing
the front of the house. The old radiators were imperial
sized whilst the new ones are metric. We managed to get
the next bigger size on seven of the new radiators
around the house. Only in the master bedroom did we
specifiy one slightly smaller because the original one
there was too big. 10) New Room Thermostat and
combined Boiler Controller fitted in the Lounge in
November 2010.
11) The new Room Stat sits next to a panel
that shows the output of the Photovoltaic solar electric
panels. Next to that is a readout of internal and
external temperatures. |
