Hi, everyone, we've just got back from new zealand - well 2 weeks agoy, but only just recovered from the shock to the system of landing at cold heathrow airport!

great place to visit, so much space, and so many things to do (including a bungy jump) - but not sure tiling is one of them, too many earth quakes - and you thought last weeks was bad enough!

visited a tile shop in christchurch whilst there, yes very sad i know but you have to find things out. majority of tiling jobs seem to be commercial and floors. it seems only larger cities, with fewer tremors, have tiled walls - from our experience - sealed shower units (like tardis'), and plastic walls. and such big tiles! oh, and the fashion there is tiny, tiny spaces - or no grout at all!!!!!!!!!!!

and as for plumbing..............................:lol:
 
**** there goes my dreams of introducing large format porcelain to the antipodean corner of the world:mad2:

Most refreshing month ever
Would love to retire there - if only the kids would get the hint and move out :yes:
