There is visible progress today - I've started tiling! The end is in sight...
Wall tiles
Unfortunately, my tile cutter is too small for the big tiles we bought. After failing to hire one for a week because all(?) the hire shops in York are closed on Saturdays, I've ordered a new one from ebay at 1/3 of the price of B&Q.
Here are the nicely drilled floor tiles fitted. These hole cutters are brilliant.

Finally, the sink didn't come with any clips to hold it to the worktop. I queried this with the supplier, who asked the manufacturer. Apparently the silicone sealant is meant to be enough to hold it in place. However, it's semi-recessed, so half of it overhangs the edge; if you fill it with water and lean on it, will it be secure? I don't believe it. So I'll have to be inventive and make some sort of clip....
Balancing act
And of course, the stupid bath waste is still leaking...I've added more silicone..again.
Ian it is taking shape well. I will come and test it all in a few weeks.
