That looks very good indeed.
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

Do you mean around the floor tiles CQ? You could always change it in the future. ::)

No I mean edging around the top and sides of the tiles. You can buy beading which you fix to the wall before offering the last row of tiles up to it. I didn't fancy cutting the angles so didn't bother. I don't think it matters and it will all look fine once the decorating is al done.  I've still got to silicone around the bottom of the tiles where the wall meets to the floor. So, off to find the masking tape  :D

Many years ago when my parents moved into a brand new chalet bungalow my sister's idea was to call the place "Twoloos" - a novelty having more than one  :lol:

Their new address was eventually named  "Two Ways" as it was on the corner of two lanes.

 :D  Or Tolouse  ;)

I am on the next leg of the outside loo utility and have today ordered the tiles for the utility bit, above the sink and around the window reveal. Erk. Bit worried about tiling this myself

I have ordered some lovely tiles from the local shop. They're Fired Earth pink melange and are the loveliest soft shades of lilac, pinks and creams, very pale and understated. My husband over-reacted when I said pink. Men  :nowink:
