Firstly the entrance door had no stayback that held top door open and secondly the bottom door was a poor fit as although there was a door draft sausage dod type thing drafts seem to by pass it and a large draft was constantly there. secondly although you had left instructions to flush the loo it wasnt adequate. the tiolet had the oldy worldly touch but i think that it is nut practicle in the modern world and needs the header upgrading. hoping your not to upset of my complains but was asked to highlight my thoughts.
