New for 2011! Shower screen

Earlier this year we decided to install a shower screen so that our guests can finally have a proper shower! We've had a few requests for a proper shower and I too have missed having one. But it wasn't an easy decision because we didn't want to lose the wood panelling or make the bathroom look smaller. Nevertheless, we decided it was the right thing to do and went ahead.

So 2 weeks ago I spent a weekend at Gannets:

• Removing part of the shelf along the wall under the mirrors
• Building a new frame at the end of the bath to support the riser rail and the shower screen
• Removing the wood panelling along the side and end of the bath
• Tiling the side wall and new frame.

In the last few days we have completed the work:

• Erecting the shower riser rail and shower screen
• Installing a replacement mirror.

You can see the results in the updated "Gannets" Facebook album. The relevant pictures are:

• shower screen closed
• shower screen open
• new view of the bathroom

So now we can offer a proper shower at Gannets! It's been a pleasure doing the work and we hope you enjoy using it.
