I have been back to the site and reorganised the photo sets. Ness Gardens should now be at the top. Really good site this. You can arrange them so they display in the order in which you took them.

Thanks Beth - Cabana is such a great bloomer for me, and I love the colours on it. Crown Princess Margareta is another bloom machine. Thanks bgrose - Caramel Antike was new last year and I'm totally crazy about this rose. Sally Holmes is the single petal rose and I'm hoping my plant will do well, it was in a pot last year and was not so happy. It's grown very widely around here and is always a traffic stopper ... at least I know I slow down my car for a better look :o) Thanks Leslie - I've had so many requests for full bush shots that I thought I'd give it a try. My plants are pretty close together so it's a bit tough, but I think you get the general idea. Aprille

Flyleft, Wolfgang80 and Dedtired - (1) My bathroom was original to 1926 so the faucets were on the same wall with the hot and cold handles across from one another and a diverter in the middle. The tub spout is in the same location and I had a shower arm at the top at about the level where the tile is now. As I gutted my bathroom, I was able to decide where I wanted the new volume and temperature controls. I decided I didn't need a separate fixed shower arm, and by using separate volume controls I didn't need a diverter (less expensive than installing a diverter). (2) Re my toilet, there aren't any issues with access, unless a pipe breaks behind the wall. My last flushometer worked for about 80 years (except for an occasional servicing by my super)so hopefully this one will last for awhile. (3) mltifctdbikrchc - I like that, although I have enough trouble with bikrchc. You wouldn't know I have a motorcycle by looking at me (plus I worked for an accounting firm for almost 20 years) Of course, the rest of my apartment is an absolute mess now.

I had the same problem over the base of my peninsula, a big, blank white wall. I added an old clock I'd antiqued black and hung three paintings above it. I'd like to add one more large one someday . . . when I find one I like that works with the others. Here's a link to that pic over on my Rate My Space room : "Paintings Hung in Kitchen"
