Default Bathroom reno

I am sitting reading the forum quietly when
CRASH
I am hearing the sound of breaking tiles
I do believe that the bathroom renovation that we gave been going to get going for several months now may have just begun.
Can I come stay at your place for a bit please?

I feel your pain MJT. We have a bathroom reno scheduled in four weeks. It will immediately follow a kitchen reno that's due two weeks. You probably won't want to come here.

You need to get in and break some tiles yourself while you still can. Very cathartic donchaknow.

I'm actually looking forward to it a bit. The old one was utter crap, really old with one of those separate broom cupboard showers.
It's just the bit between starting and finishing that I'm a bit nervous about

My cousin who is a builder is doing the bathroom (last year ) and saving us about $3000 and a mate (cabinet maker/kitchens) is doing the kitchen and saving us about $3000. Yay.

Kitchen is going to have stone benchtops because of the saving. Noice. It's my kitchen, Annie is not allowed in there.

Stone bench tops!! Beautiful, so mice to work on.
We're trying to cut costs too, picked up a lovely marble top vanity for $ 120 and enough tiles to do bathroom walls and floor and kitchen and family room floor for $600. We can do most of it ourselves and tradie mates are the best!!
Good luck with yours, I will post some pics of ours soon

I had a bathroom reno going on while I was trying to do a Social Sciences assignment, other side of the wall. And I don't think those men appreciated the relevance of what I was up to.
