When my neighbour had a bathroom refurb she used that cladding on the walls in bright scarlet red with silver and white marbling through it . Then white with red and silver veining/marbling through it on the ceiling . Totally stunning . I love love loved it and wish I had the balls to be so bold . I'd actually go for it but the auld fella doesn't 'get' it and thinks it looks too weird , so ...... ,no bright red for my bathroom . Bedroom though ? Yep. Well, accessorised in scarlet at least . Got the curtain fabric left in , and fabric for a puffball patchwork 'scarf' for the bed . I'll pick the rest up as and when .

Oh fabby !
This is the donation page from their site .Address is at the bottom .
http://www.smallsforall.org/donate/

They don't say in their site , but I supported a similar campaign about two years ago aimed at supplying an orphanage in Africa and the story was heart breaking . Apparently because the blossoming girls were bra-less they were considered fair game for assault . Sort of "She was asking for it by bouncing her boobs around " attitude . So there was a drive to supply the place with bras as a means of protection for the older girls from predatory dirt bags . How sad is that .
Like I say , this site doesn't mention that but I daresay it would come into it to some degree .

This has been going on for years in Africa and no one does anything about it and its' maddening, that's why there is so many unwanted pregnancies. As soon as the kids reach puberty they are raped in lots of places.

We've got it on the bathroom ceiling, white with a light narrow silver trim, looks great.

Our bathroom is more beach hut effect. Wood on ceiling and halfway up walls https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...6318b04a74.jpg but walls and blind are sunshine yellow with white tiles around shower/bath. Thinking of doing a sage green wash on wood.

Now I like that! but the OH wanted white ripple effect tiles all around the walls, she won! I only like tiles around the shower and walls like yours, SP, but c'est la vie!

It was closer to 20 but that's what happens when Brendan pops up every few minutes!
I think of Margaret Thatcher, myself

I love that look , and I love yellow in the bathroom . That's what I used to have , half tongue and groove and then yellow walls above that, but after our refurb I went for a mediterranean look in the downstairs bathroom with white and terracotta tiling . Had the bath boxed in with chipboard that was then tiled over . Looks nice and vaguely Bath House . (Don't even think about it Bangle . Dirty boy !)

Identical in style to this (even to the plant and push button cistern ), but different tiles .

Good afternoon guys .
Still chuckling over baby Bear (great name for him Evil. I shall use that on the BB threads) getting instant karma last night . Might be just me but I strongly suspect that they didn't try that with Jason Burrill . Jason was genuinely scary and built like a brick shit house . Baby Bear is young and fit enough but his aggressive posturing lacked any kind of menace . Good enough to scare HMs but not anywhere near Jason's shit-yer-pants Incredible Hulk impression .
I'm gonna make a note of that shrub you guys were discussing . I quite fancy that for the patio area and I'm trying to whittle my plants down to easy-care ones like that .
Pulled my back out yesterday afternoon while washing the vinyl ceiling in the bathroom , so I'll be walking like I pooed my pants for the foreseeable (big sigh) . I never learn . On the plus side a few ebay things arrived today and reminded me that I might not be fit for too much walking but then ebay doesn't require walking , mwahahaha. 😈 . Credit card bill arrived too but that can wait till the last minute for paying .
I feel for you, I hope it's skeletal and not muscular? The latter takes forever to heal and hurts like hell!

Take it easy Heather, don't go making it worse.

Can you post name of charity, turfing out some of my clothes so bras can go somewhere useful. (just seen post with link..thanks.)

Bought some lavender plants today, going in pots until next year and then into garden when it's been cleared.
Do you not get the plastic bags through your door? Every other day I get one asking for donations, sometimes a couple a day arrive. I'd much rather donate clothing than money as I don't trust thst financial donations are entirely going where they are intended

I love that, classic but modern and fresh looking, can't beat a nice calming sage green either.

Bath houses are so 1970's-2000's, Grindr killed them off. Why would you pay 20 quid when you can order in

Christopher Biggins has been removed from CBB house. Must have been bad considering Baby Bear only got a warning for his behavior?!?

He should have been booted!
Maybe Marnie complained about the bisexual comments as she is openly bisexual
but Biggins of all people???

Apparently because of "the amount of offensive coments he has made and the number of complaints people have made against him he has been removed".

Oh and due to his removal the series is now being renamed Big Brother.

No live outside of town and across the other side of M5 from the main village only about 30 -40 properties and they can't be bothered with us.
