photostory friday: i really want to share my camping photos with you, but first i need to show you this

miss 19 and i have been planning the renovation of this bathroom for the past few months.  she was in on it, because this is basically HER bathroom, except for when miss 21 sleeps over and my parents come to stay (or anyone else for that matter).

she also oversaw the renovation while we were away camping
it all seemed to work very well and the work was completed within a month


please don't ask me why i have hideous 2-tone green walls in my bathroom because i won't tell you


ok i will...but not now





clive the builder denuding our bathroom
he left that grey jumper he's wearing here
i washed it
the end




the ONLY reason i got this spa
(ok, not the ONLY reason) 



and the big reveal






my little helper cleaning off the dust'n'stuff

so to recap...

from THIS
to this.


...and now i'm going to burst your bubble by telling you that the BLEEPING spa doesn't work!
lots of noise but no squirting jets, so i have a gentleman caller coming tomorrow to see if he can't get my jets a'squirtin...

[if you know what i mean...]
