Two toilets together, most undesirable. I'm always a bit mystified by twin basins. Call me odd, but I quite like to wash in peace. We have one of those slow shutting toilets. I find myself shouting at it to 'hurry up!'. If I weren't quite such a lady it might be 'hurry the **** up', but obviously that is not the case here... Keep up the good work, you are doing marvellously and once it is all finished, you will magically forget all the pain! xxxfrecklefacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15881334320685123475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704928024259198234.post-63276768733450215792014-02-17T11:54:30.860+08:002014-02-17T11:54:30.860+08:00ha! just enough ranty-ness to keep me entertained ...ha! just enough ranty-ness to keep me entertained - in fact, the simmering rant is actually a thoroughly lovely tightrope wall of language.

Yes, $29 may seem like a hefty price to pay for a toilet deodoriser, but heck Post-poo drops is good stuff and I swear by it. Only need a couple of drops, so it lasts an age. It's also worth every cent when one has would-be arsonists in the house.Makeminemidcenturyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15304535583168822160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704928024259198234.post-45289000724906712062014-02-17T05:45:46.574+08:002014-02-17T05:45:46.574+08:00Keep it real, Kylie, always keep it real!

I'm also so very sorry you had to go through all those struggles. If it's any consolation at all, the glimpses I've seen of your bathroom look REALLY good!! That glimpse of the sky:-) I'm concidering subway tiles too for when we'll get around to our bathroom reno. Can't say I'm looking forward to the prosess...

We have recently bought and renovated new premises and the new toilet is driving me mad! I am constantly cleaning large deposited cruddy bits off the bowl. AND I totally agree with the self closing lid thing too. I await your next post Miss.

I didn't realise, I probably have not been following your blog for long enough!<br /><br />I often gaze at the interesting old, empty shop fronts around Broken Hill and think they would make charming homes. Perhaps not always particularly practical though? <br /><br />The Aesop product is funny isn't it. I like their products but haven't ventured into this territory before. Self closing lids...I have never heard of them. Have I been living under a rock I wonder?!

As for the post poo drops - $29! Holy crap! Buy yourself a box of matches for 50c girl. One match lit after vigorous bathroom activity burns away the smell - it's the less spectacular way of setting light to your farts!

That kind of thing is stressful enough when it's running smoothly, but when you have to deal with problems, you feel like your head is going to explode. I'm beginning to feel that way with my contractor. After moving in and loving my little house, leaks developed in the bedroom and bathroom ceilings. He came and out repaired the leaks, but he's taking forever getting the ceilings patched and retextured. Grrrrrrrrrrr....I'm getting very unhappy.<br /><br />I can't wait to see the reveal photos. I know they will be lovely.Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.com
