Dick Smith Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Did it have a plastic shower cubicle in the middle of the bedroom at the foot of the bed? And a hole in the floor on the way down the corridor to the loo? If so, that one's in Sourdeval. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
