He made a mess Liz... then he went to the store to get bits and (having been sunny all afternoon) it promptly bucketed down on him! now he's in a kitchen cupboard turning the water off and I have a lovely view!

Ok, so, new plants:

Anubias lancolata and new and old hastifolias in place:

Bit blurry but showing the emmergent hastifolia leaves:

Emergent leaves:

Almost FTS (sideways to avoid glare):

Will do some more this evening when it's dark

I don't think your plants are near big enough...

But I'm satisfied so far with the photographic evidence.

How's the bathroom coming along?

Me neither I keep telling them to grow faster and they just won't listen!

Well... the kitchen cupboard had to have a hole cut in it with a jigsaw because the genius previous owners for some reason installed the cupboard over the top of the stop tap... so that the stop tap was underneath the bottom of the cupboard the straight water pipes now have bends in them so they fit around the vanity unit, they don't leak and the water is back on again. Next step is cutting the worktop to fit the basin in. I'm making chilli for dinner so the house smells yummy. And the children haven't killed each other yet.

Always good when the children don't kill each other...

I was joking about the plants, Caz. You actually want them bigger?
