and now i think about it my bathroom is exactly the same so maybe a
nice extractor fan.,...or two one in reverse would do nicely :)
something to look at, bit of a pain in the ass giving up the cupboard
tbh, hmmm challenging.....need some magic ventilation into my
downstairs cupboard ideally but i really don't see that happening,


on an extra note, anyone have any experience with floating floors,
from the new house instructions (house is now 6 years old) it says the
floor is tongue and groove chipboard with polystyrene underneath?!!!


whats the odds of there being room to run cabling under there?!

Thanks
noel
