Re: Five years in Adelaide
 
Congrats on 5 years and your wedding anniversary, and well done for all the changes you have made. The bathroom looks great-inspiration for mine, but ours will cost more as neither of us are handy, we have fibro walls so will need them cleared properly, and we don't know people for "mates rates", so it may be a while (years) before that happens.

The bathroom was a hideously daunting project and left me utterly exhausted. If we'd had the cash I would have gladly palmed it all off to a bunch of professionals!

I finished grouting the outside edge of the tiles. Mirror is up too:

Beveled edge does weird things to the reflection.

Vash, I've just caught up with your ongoing improvements, I'm sure you must have a lot of satisfaction from doing all this. Well done!

Multiply your time in Adelaide by 10, and it will be one year short of when I first arrived there, and finally left again in late 2011. So much changed over 51 years I would need a collection of books to detail it all. I hope you have as many new experiences and adventures.

Thanks Aries, it has been quite an adventure.
