    That's great news @Siwheels73 hope it doesn't take long and there's not to much disruption. x

    Thanks, @Hannah_Scope! Just hoping we have picked the right bath so that the bath lift we have fits suitably

    This thread has been going for months, and I have only JUST realised it started with a typo in the title. D'oh!

    Ha, I found that funny @Siwheels73. Though, on a more serious note, I am sure none of us minded about - or maybe even noticed - the typo in the title! 

    How are you feeling about everything at the moment? I hope the bath and bath lift go to plan, despite the potential chaos initially  :)

    AT LAST, Our bathroom changes are going ahead. OMG, we really, really cannot believe it. It has taken nearly 2years to get to this point, and most of that time would have been completely unnecessary if someone - ANYONE - had sat down with us and asked what the minimum we needed was, and discussed options.

    Due to that, we spent 12 months going down a far more expensive path with the thought that it was the ONLY path available, and therefore getting funding refused due to the extravagance of what we were told was the only solution.

    We will have to rebuild a little bit of the relationship we had with Winchester City Council (I said I would name them!) but I will also write and tell them how they could have done so much better. Photos to follow!
