It’s been nearly three years but we FINALLY have a flushing toilet once again - a massive milestone in this big renovation project.
The floor is down, sealed and grouted so we’re ready to assemble and plumb this glorious new throne for the downstairs bathroom.
As you might expect, this goes very smoothly without any mistakes, misunderstandings, frustration or any other issues. Stay tuned to see how we get on!

I live in Mozambique and acquired some land in the bush, 7 kms from the road. It took me nearly three years as well, borehole for water, tank for water, hole for septic tank, build a bathroom, pipes, pipes, pipes then buy a toilet and get it installed. Long project, but the joy of a flushing toilet in the bush! Congratulations….

How you've both managed to make the installation of a toilet become a video which contains drama, sinking hearts, soaring souls and a breath holder (in the best dramatic sense) is a testament to your skill both as videographers and property rehab experts! LOVE watching your progress on this house and garden. Good work, both of you!

A massive milestone indeed!! We installed our flush toilet (on my birthday!) in the summer of 2022 after about 15 years... And on our other house it was more like 20 years 🙄 Okay, both of these places we only lived in for up to half of each year, but still. The last straw was when our three children, plus two significant others (who we had not met before) came for Christmas and severely overloaded the composting toilet. Guess who cleaned it out. 🤢 I can certainly identify with your jubilation!!
