I made spag bol for the first time yesterday - ad probably my last!
In truth I should say my classroom assistants made it - it was my cookery day in school and I hate it with a vengeance!
My can-do recipes are very limited and involve a freezer tins and microwave !
A staple for me at university.
That is to say i made and ate a lot of spag bol, not staples.

I've got to rip out the tiles or just the grout in a bathroom. Redo the walls and maybe replace the tub.
There is a company that makes tub enclosures. Walls and everything measured and then formed in fiberglass.
Has anyone here ever purchased such a thing?
It goes over everything and it is permanent.
I think I'll request an estimate.
The grout season doesn't start in the UK until the 12th August.;)
(Apologies maybe only the UKers will get that as not sure if you have similar hunting time for grouse in the US)
We have panels you can buy that fit over tiles to line the walls here but not sure if they are fibreglass.

Just had it done this past summer. I had the tub/shower done and 3/4 high of the bathroom walls done. Very happy with it so far. The only thing I didn't like was the sales lady. She said certain things would be done, that wasn't. It was just some patching work that wasn't going to get covered.
The cost was cheaper then cost of my old bathroom that I had totally redone with tile, drywall, new tub, etc but this was a lot faster. Bath Fitters was the company I had.

Hi meech, so pleased you're ok- we often wonder how you are and what you're up to.
All ok with me thanks just plodding on as usual.
Lola has given me a few worries this winter with his changes in behaviour but seems to be seasonal stuff.
Is work OK - same place?
Glad he's doing well though! Hopefully he gets back to his old self soon. Work is good, busy and very long days but I do really enjoy it. Same place:)

Nos da, Roomies!
Not see you again, tomorrow.

Seeing as how I am in Weight Watchers, I hope to score POORLY in regards to Gluttony! ;)

But WAIT!!!!! May I nominate a PROXY participant for the Gluttony chapter of of the game??!?!? One of my cats, Julio, eats anything and everything- even things he shouldn't, which later require SURGERY to extract them! He eats his regular food so fast he doesn't even chew it! :) He is the very DEFINITION of Gluttony!!!!!!! I'd win for SURE! :) @Tidgy's Dad

Adam, I edited my previous post to inquire about my substituting a PROXY participant....:)
The cat is permitted to enter as a separate contestant, but not to get you more points.:)
Since Tidgy has started guzzling again, i may enter her.
We could have a pets and animals section for this contest.:D
