I often think it would be better for comments to be ordered newest to oldest, rather than having to go the end to see newest comment. I always read from the bottom (beats eyes in the back of your head!) up until I get to the last comment from yesterday. By the way @Luke Buckle still waiting to know where that pool is????

Update:. I have continued on with the same tiler. however, feel like he is not honest. fitting me up wherever he can. Apparemtly he has on,y quoted me for stainless steel suorround around my niche and if i want white i have to pay for it. he would not put the architrave back on the door, as he is not a carpenter. this cost me anextra $100.00. although my quote says tiling to the ceiling, he had not quoted to put wall board to the ceiling, this cost extra. i feel a little jaded. He contacted an abstetos removalist, when he was shocked to find it, only for the quote to be double the subsequent quote i obtained from an abstetos removalist was half. his grout lines are way above the 1.5mm specified. i am a novice at this, i thought a quote included everything. How i am to know the little extras.

To Nicole K..OOOOOOH That sounds really classy! Why didn't anybody come up with that earlier on? I don't drink...but just for the decorator touch, if I had that fridge and that space, I'd get the calssiest alcohol shelving and fill it with the most elegant bottles available......suppose the real thing would cost a mint...so I'd hunt for the bottles and fill them with the appropriately coloured liquid...food colouring dye and water ought to do it. Maybe just one real bottle....my brandy for the upset tum. What a good idea!

You could add a chaise lounge or a comfy chair and table for a reading nook or an office area if you need one, a computer area but whatever you do don't over clutter it keep it sleek and sexy and or a comfy chair as suggested with a little side table for reading, I also like the idea of a place to put coats, shoes etc if you must enclose it. Maybe even a small wine bar? with a couple of stools. I decided to google is and will give you a link to many pics to give you more choices. https://www.google.com.au/search?q=pics+of+what+to+do+with+space+behind+floating+stairs&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjFy-n9p4vZAhUEF5QKHSvhAOMQ7AkISg&biw=1280&bih=893
