    Is there anything wrong with this work - with pics

    Its not the best job in the world but I have seen a lot worse, one thing to mention though, is that if the pan connector in your pic is any indication of the finished position of the wc pan, then you want to be careful when you screw the pan down, ie that your screws dont hit those pipes.
