We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "The Medway Handyman"
saying something like:

Could anyone advise if this gap between the cistern & the wall is
too big to
fill with silicone?

Bluddyell. Is there a pipe running across the back, I seem to see?
Anyway, if it was me I'd look at filling it in with a ply shelf or
something similar, tiled to finish.

I thought it was April fools days at first !
That is one hell of a gap.
I cant understand why the OP didn't think to cut the waste pipe that
goes through the wall.....


Odd, but that wasn't on the list of jobs she wanted done, she hadn't even
mentioned it!

I was asked to tighten up a loose monoblock basin mixer next to it.

Bathroom was put in & tiled 6 months ago by a 'bathroom specialist'.
Apparently they said it had to be like that because of the soil pipe. The
room was gutted prior to installation.

I'm going back to apply the Curmugeons suggestion.


So problem solved. But why did you not take photos when you worked in the
brothel :-)
