They were saying in the news this morning that he actually went much faster than they said in the live broadcast - 833mph! He looked like he was in serious trouble when he was spinning so fast, good old mad austrian managed to get it under control though.
Jeds it sounds like you have done your research! I'm sure the world will not end - but it may not be able to support an evergrowing population in such luxury. Who knows. I cetainly did not know about antartica expanding!
You could try http://www.homesupply.co.uk as they have bathroom suites, not sure about size specifications. I take it you have looked at all the main large retailers?
Last resort - get a new toilet?!?
That happens in a hell of a lot of industries but yes, I'm pretty sure that the necessity of funding and the cliquey-ness of the academic circle can make going against the grain bloody hard!
Jeds I am not expert and often though that the world was buggered even if it went zero carbon emissions right now - although a have a friend who has a PHD in environmental science and he seems to think differently. As I said i am no expert but he certainly is and the evidence would point...
I love the 'miraculous' sale at halfords, the permanent sale is always quite curious.
You could try looking at www.homesupply.co.uk for some of the fittings like your kitchen taps but I am not sure if you will be able to get everything there. Depends if you want to go to a 'one-stop shop'...
Considering you havent tiled for over a decade you did a pretty good job, planning can always be a ball ache I can picture you sitting on the toiled staring at the wall head in hands desperately trying to figure things out!
Brilliant. Seemed a bit strange to me as well...
Definitely dont sell it to the builder - he wouldnt have offered you money for it if it wasnt worth something.
