This week Stu and I were travelling out to Cambourne near Cambridge to carry out an en-suite installation in a former loft conversion.  On Monday we put together our materials list and then headed off to do some shopping, popping into around five different merchants.
 

On Tuesday I started stripping out the soon to be en-suite room, while Stu set about running the hot and cold water feeds up from another en-suite below.  Getting up and down two flights of stairs every time was certainly keeping us fit; maybe we should have installed a lift first.  Stu drained down the heating system and then plumbed in a new towel radiator in the existing bathroom the following day, while I put in some new structural support timbers for the new floor area and then laid new floor boards on top.  On Thursday Stu had to plumb in the correct size towel radiator in the bathroom as he had fitted the wrong towel rad on my say so.  I got my towel rads mixed up and Stu fitted the wrong one in the wrong place, whoops!  After that he ran in the first fix hot and cold water feeds to the en-suite toilet, sink and shower unit.  While Stu did that, I ran in the shower waste pipe work, put down the wet room shower base and fixed some additional floorboards to give a one level floor.  I then started on putting in some new stud work to create some new false walls.
 

Stu had to re-hang the living room radiator on Friday due to the fact the youngest member of the family where we were working had been using it as a warm seating area and nearly had it off the wall!  Stu then ran in the sink waste pipe while I finished off the stud work and started to insulate the new walls with cellotex insulation ready for boarding on return from a well deserved break.
