When I built our 'tower', I was determined that it should remain as primitive as possible. No water, no electricity, and no mod-cons of any sort. Simply a bed, a cupboard, and a few candles for light.
It remained like that for several years, but last year I did run an electricity cable to the interior for the convenience of a couple of bedside lamps.

Lady M has now been suggesting that we install a basic bathroom onto the side of the tower. This would involve taking water to it, installing a new fosse septique, and destroying the new garage that I recently built for the mower.
So, will I be giving-in to her wishes? Not bloody likely! I might do a more professional job on the electrical installation, but nothing else.
I like it as it is!
Oh come on! You've got to keep your Lady happy. I agree with her 100%. A small bathroom is a necessity, an essential. Especially as you get older. You may be sleeping there by yourself next summer.
ReplyDeleteLady M, get Kimbo on the job!!! Without Cro knowing 😄😄
It's only a short walk to the house bathroom... that will have to suffice!
DeleteYou say there is a garage. Could that be converted.
ReplyDeleteNot really. It's OK for the mower, but a bit flimsy for anything else.
DeleteA gazunder and a water jug should suffice.
ReplyDeleteThat's my preference too, but it's more of a gaz-outdoors, than a gazunder.
DeleteMakes me wonder if Lady M is trying to sort out some alternative living accommodation for you....start worrying when she suggests a cooker and kitchen sink as well!
ReplyDeleteHa ha.... you could be right. However, it is my favourite bedroom!
DeleteAre you troubled by mosquitoes there?
ReplyDeleteHardly at all, but I've just bought a couple of battery-powered Mozzie deterrents. One for the tower, and one for our bedroom in the house. I hope they work!
DeleteA nice space,
ReplyDeleteIt looks out through a huge window onto perfect open countryside.
DeleteThe bedroom looks like a scene from a fairy tale. A bit magical. That said, I do think a small bathroom is essential.
ReplyDeleteThe bathroom in the house is on the ground floor, and not far away. I'll keep it as it is.
DeleteA gaz-outdoors may be ok for you but I am sure not for Lady M.
ReplyDeleteOr most other people!!!
