You have the wrong sort of tile old man.
The Dutch use "hard" tiles in all kitchens and bathrooms and in all the years we have been going over there none of us has ever slipped.

I don't live in flamin' Holland though. This is shite GB.

Anyway. The point of all this is the fact that we've now got something on the floor, that looks virtually the same as what directly underneath it, and is nearly as slippy....AND I've now got to take the bloody door off to sand it's bottom down to enable it to close. cussing:

In other words....£100+ wasted. cussing:

If all these 'incidents' had taken place in a public place, we'd be minted now.

That is true!  ;D So £100 plus your time and the electricity to power the tools.  rubschin:

Do you think that Mrs Growler knew this was going to happen and that is why she didn't kick off about the pan?  rubschin:

... I did have one big fall where I slipped in the bathroom and smacked my lip on the bidet. It swelled up a treat!

Does it only affect lips this way. I have an idea

So it makes the bidet swell up? What do you want, a giant basin?
