Catching and tackling the looters and robbers was something else.
I remember when you first posted up about it happening Phil.

It was shocking to see and how you both coped with it was nothing short of amazing .

Out of the ashes came a beautiful Pheonix of a new home for you both

I don't know why SWMBO wants a new bathroom - there's nowt wrong with the metal bucket (with holes in the bottom) hung above the bath, and the watering can standing there to fill it [/QUOT




Good morning Rod no I can't see anything wrong with that it sounds like a perfect shower just like the ones that we had out in Egypt that served us well

No expense spared - I even bought a new drill bit to put the holes in the bucket - didn't want any ragged edges, as that would have been unsafe
