yes they were, it was only temporary whilst i had everything in bits (2 days) the cable you see was only for the ignition for the gas hob.
What was the big thick one that ran along the top of the tiles then dived down behind the cooker?
Also - your floor. Do you plan to cover it up again, or restore the old quarry tiles? If the latter, any plans on how and with what? I guess this post is straying into Flooring Forum territory, but my kitchen has also got old vinyl/lino on top of what could, potentially, be a nice tiled floor, and I was thinking about uncovering it....
The big thick 'cable' was actually the gas line! Thye kitchen layout when i moved in was terrible to say the least! the cooker as you can see was behind the door for starters and it had no 'splashback' and a double socket above for the ignition, all is now sorted and new gas lines run and the cooker oput in a more sensible place.
The floor may look like tiles but this is not true. It's a solid concrete floor with red painted stuff on it and the look of tiles is only there cause the old ones were there so long (there were 3 layers of tiles/vinyl etc.. that they made an imprint of squares on the floor.
Anyway, I'm gonna lay laminate flooring that looks like tiles and use the 'green fibre board stuff' underneath, I'll post a pic when I'm done.[/quote]
