Yes, be very careful with the French "overdraft" facility. We went into the red 3 months running earlier this year when there was no work. On each occasion it was much less than our agreed découvert, and on each occasion our account was brought back into credit in full within the 30 days. During the 4th month, when the account was well in the black, we received a letter to say that our découvert was now nil, rien, zilch.....and it will probably remain that way for ever.lol, this ain't the UK :-(

lol...that's why I've come back here for my daily fix after many years in the TF/FE wilderness, but it's a bit like turning on the Archers after 6 months - same old, same old. Not exactly a lively bunch, and still backbiting anyone who asks for help :-(

Unfortunately, it's a lot of faffing about to make a few samosas, but I love the round pastry sheets that fit the flan tins :-)

Hello Gluestick, no it's not a wetroom as you have the showerscreen to keep the room from getting soaked, therefore the whole room doesn't need "tanking", but of course you would have to use hydrofuge placoplatre, like in any bath/shower room. Yes installation really could only be carried out in a new build or a renovation project, but I much prefer that easy clean look to the shower cabin we have, which although expensive is a bugger to clean. Once a year just wouldn't be enough unfortunately...

We were lucky enough to be left 2 beeg bahgs when the sand was delivered for our fs; I use them for garden rubbish which is great as I can just shove one full of leaves into the back of the break, and the guy at the dechetterie helps me tip it in the benne....Soft sand is called river sand at our local quarries....it's sometimes black, but sometimes they have some that looks as if it's come straight from a pale golden beach...

...and please don't fit horrible sliding doors as cleaning the tracks is a nightmare. Curtains are an absolute no no. My preferred shower is this sort of thing, but bought in France of coursehttp://www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/roman-embrace-glass-linear-wetroom-panel-various-size-options.aspx

Lovely hot dry days here in 31, and cool at night. OH is replacing a roof this month and it's mighty hot for him up there, but he took a punt when he booked the job in, wrongly guessing that September would be cooler than July and August.tant pis..
