Tiling   
Hi folks.
We are in the process of preparing the bathroom for tiling.
We have found 2 kinds of tiles we like that would be separated by a border.
However the bottom tiles would be flat and the top would be wavey / bumpy.
I know it is purely a personal choice but would this look silly?

Similar to this set up http://www.internode.co.uk/loft/tiling.htm although
the white tiles would be wavey / bumpy.

Thanx Topper.

You think I should have put in a deep fat frier instead of a shower 
then? ;-)

I guess that only you can decide for sure. I would have thought that if 
you choose a suitable boarder (aka listello) tile then it ought to allow 
the transition from one to the other without looking odd.

bath" one ?
