Hi LawrenceR, looks like I have been foiled lol, I actually saw your pics and did more or less use your knowledge, lol

It has come out fantastic, unfortunatley I still cant seem to manage to load any pics up onto the threads, but have sent some pics to thimtheenchanter to have a look at.

I think the only difference really was the false floor we put in as we didnt have a full size shower tray, it works really well and takes no time to take it out for a shower and replace in when finished, giving us a level floor for the portaloo to sit on.

lawrence, you know what really got me mad, was I had just bought a complete wet room off Ebay, at stupid money, we asked the guy loads and loads of questions, gave him all the measurements and he assured us that it would all fit, and when after driving a 290 mile round trip to collect it and get it home, we found that it was in fact 2 inches too big.  the options were to move out the wall from the shower room (taking up living space in the van,) or to find an alternative, and thats when I got onto the UKCS forum and found your thread and pics.

I can tell you I was pretty down when the bought wet room wouldnt fit, as we only had about two weeks before we took the van away for the first time to the S Devon meet last week, but with your knowledge and a couple of pretty good ideas of our own, we managed to get it all sorted and it works, and was cheap, and more than satisfying knowing that you have done it all yourself.

Thanks and lets hope others out there see it and use our ideas, like you say thats the reason we post.
