I thought I would resurrect this thread, as we've been in our rental for a month now whilst waiting for our house to be built, and there is one thing that is driving me up the wall!

Only one bathroom!

I can't even have a **** in peace any more! For the next 6-9 months I have no room of sanctuary!

We've got 3 in our place and 3 floors. Somehow my wife knows the exact time I'll be in there before she shouts up for something. It's like a shitssense. My 5 minutes of quiet time are interrupted every time!

What exactly is half a bathroom?

It‘s always irritated me when I see a house description that says, for example, 5 beds, 4 and a 1/2 baths? I think it’s a stupid Americanism that estate agents ought to be shot for using....

Suspect this maybe ought to be on the rant thread?

As my wife is an estate agent, half a bathroom is a toilet and basin only.
