MY NEW BATHROOM TILES




These are the mosaic tiles that I ordered for the curved wall in the new bathroom. As Old gumpy wasn't with me when I ordered them we called into the suppliers on our way back from his pre-admission assessment for the hospital next Monday. He liked them (whew) but as his eyesight is not very good he failed to notice the cost. However, he also took a photograph and in the corner of his photograph is displayed the price! When we got back to the office he pointed it out to me. "Have you seen the price of these tiles" "Yes" I said with a certain amount of aggression. No answer to that is there? That will teach him a lesson for sending me shopping on my own! I was told to order mosaic tiles but given no guidance on how much I should spend.

Wait till he sees the cost of the rest of the stuff ordered. He will think that the tiles are a bargain.

Dear Mother in the Wrong - OK, I'll come clean on the price. £62.40 M2 (this includes my 20% discount). I have to close my eyes when I say the price. They are a terribly luxury, but I'm worth it!

Hi Laurie of the exciting job. They surely are flashing aren't they? Unfortunately I AM a closet flashy person by nature. It is something that I have fought against all of my life, but hey, I too old now to bother what other people think and, do you know, that is very liberating.
