The trials of a new bathroom

Things have been banging and crashing at the new home of Miss Ginger. I moved in teo months ago to my house that needs lots of work. the worst part of the house was the bathroom. As you can see it was seperate and had horrid tiles all over with a smelly old carpet. After having a shower you felt like you needed another....
 So it ust had to go! It was a nightmare two weeks. My two children wnet to stay at there dads, and me and the dog and cats had to deal with the noise and dust and wonder the streets during the day to stay out of the way.
 It now looks like this... Now i am pleased but is it the end? Oh no! the shower the shop sent was leaking, the toilet seat broken, and the sink was the wrong (too small!) so many arguements later and two weeks on, i am still waiting for the new parts and then an arguement as to who will fit them. my plumber wants paying to come back, it wasn't my fault so i don't think i should pay and the shop is offering some discount on future purchases.... I will not be having another new bathroom so that doesn't wash with me. So tomorrow it is down to the shop to have an arguement - hopefully in front of of people who want to buy from the shop. I do think they are trying it on because I am a single woman, but hey, i am a red head and they should know i can stand up for myself!! Don't you just hate it when you think you are getting conned?

Oh well, I love the bathroom so far and hope to have a decent sized sink - I did order and pay for it! and a shower that doesnt leak would be good! Wish me luck...
