Main reason being that because of the way everything is arranged, we either have to spend a mountain of money or have something very shallow - and Ideal Standard do a range of cabinets (Space) that are only 21cm deep which integrate nicely with their compact sink and toilet from the same range. So we won't need to move the door, or go for a folding door, or take a jackhammer to the poured concrete floor to move the plumbing (idiot builders), but still get a nice tidy run of cabinets to replace the fugly sink, toilet+cistern and pipework that date back to when the conversion was done in the mid eighties...

And the missus said no to buying an Aqualisa Digital shower. Dammit! Despite it not only having pumps and a microprocessor control, but an optional remote control! A wireless remote control!! What's wrong with the woman?
