As the house build moves along (slowly) we’re now being asked by the builders to select our kitchens, bathrooms, tiles and flooring.
Last Wednesday (30th October) we spent a cold morning showing the electrician and plumber where we wanted electrical points, lights, radiators, toilets, showers, etc. so that they could start first fix next week. There are so many things to decide and a constant worry that we might be missing something.
Our visit to Tile Giant in Grimsby was made all the more relaxing by the presence of this furry black assistant who had moved from the warm under floor heating display to get a stroke from Jane. The trouble is Jane wants to return, not to choose tiles but just to say hello to the cat.
We spent hours in this shop and yes the cat was mega cute but having chosen the tiles we then found they were the same as some David and Lucie had chosen.. This meant a trip to Scunthorpe or Scunny on Saturday to find an alternative. The good news is we did find another more perfect tiling solution as well as locating the shopping centre in Scunny (our third attempt), and the nearest cinema which we will be visiting on their cheap night Tuesday….
