Finishing the bathroom tiling took some doing. Every time we thought the last tile was in, we remembered another corner that needed something. Last of all, we decided to tile the base of the window box. It is so convenient for toothbrushes and razors that we can't keep it dry, and the plywood has started to suffer from damp. As the plywood box is a structural feature in the wood frame, it must be protected.

Tiled shelf in the over-sink window
While doing the bathroom, it was quick and easy to lash a few tiles around the sink in the studio, too.
Grout around the bath
Dave and Rowan refit the sink
Paris paints the door
Our scabby furniture is replaced, for the time being ...
I mentioned to Rowan that I'd like a mirror with a shelf to fit by the window, and the next day he turned up with one, made from the off-cuts from the door trims. It was a thank-you for putting them up in the music room. They've now found an apartment and will move out soon. We'll miss them. And the mirror was a lovely touch.
Mats and curtains back in. Still no floor, but everything ready.
But best not to have any house guests when the floor gets done - we'll have to get to the loo along a plank!
