Our Classy New Bathroom is now complete !!

It's done, all finished, big sigh of relief !!

One of the rooms you put off doing is the dreaded bathroom, in fact we did put it off until the very last minute.  It's not just the fact the you have to do without a bathroom while it's getting done , it's trying to find the suite you want, the planning and the chaos it all creates.

We took the first step and decided to drive round the industrial estates to look at the bathroom suites available.  I really wanted a slipper bath but my plan was to have it sat on the floor. I didn't want the claw feet design.  Well we searched and searched and not one bath was right.  We gave up that day and decided to head for home.  

Hubbie had been insisting that we should have a quick look in the kitchen and bathroom store around the corner from us but I didn't see the point if we couldn't find anything in the larger stores. Boy was I SO wrong.  We walked into the store and there it was waiting for us, yes it had the claw feet but somehow that didn't seem to matter anymore and sat right next to it was the most gorgeous old fashioned bathroom pedestal I had seen.  The 'I told you so' look on hubbie's face was very plain to see.

Not only did we find the suite we loved so much they also provided the installation and all works needed to ensure our new bathroom looked amazing and at an affordable price too.  All the work from one company and less headache for us.

Now the work is all over it was certainly worth it in the end, we love it.  A smile appears each time I enter, all upheaval completely forgotten about.  Hope you like it too x

Bath time for unique story-telling project at the Bath Festival

The Bath Festival of Children’s Literature starts a unique storytelling event involving 20 authors and bloggers.

Twenty top children's authors and bloggers will take part in a unique and joint storytelling project courtesy of The Bath Festival Of Children's Literature.

Marcus Sedgewick, John Boyne and Annabel Pitcher - all appearing at the Festival, which is sponsored by The Telegraph - will be part of a team launching a collaborative story (starting on Thursday 8 September) written in real time with readers following the story as it moves from blog to blog.

A new addition to the story will be posted at each of the 20 stops, concluding on the 16th October. The first installment will appear on the Bath Festival of Children’s Literature blog where readers can click through to the next installment.

Every other day a new piece of the story will be posted and as it is being written in real time it has the potential to touch on any genre imaginable. Artistic Director John McLay said “We are hoping to highlight the creativity and dedication of both book blogs and author blogs, through which potential readers are enthused and entertained. There is an amazing amount of support for the book industry via blogging and this is a great way for Bath to capture that and do something fun and unique”.
