OK a challenge for the congregation

I'd consider simply removing the built-in wardrobe and making do with a chest of drawers and a separate clothes hanger on wheels. You'd make a lot of space that way, and with extra 2 feet of width you'd have 5 feet to play with which would be adequate for a loo, sink, and shower (or instead of the shower a smallish tub with shower attachment).

we will be putting built in wardrobes against one wall.

the temporary bedroom will become a guest bedroom when we extend.

I thought that was your plan, or maybe you mentioned it initially.

But that makes a built-in wardrobe even less necessary - I mean how many clothes and clobber will guests bring when they stay?

Good point but I expect to be in the room for a year or two.

I still think a built-in wardrobe is a bit dated and OTT, especially for a bloke, unless you're into cross-dressing and need a good selection of dresses to chose from and a large mirrored alcove in the middle to apply the slap.

I mean how many clothes and shoes do you have?! I can easily get all my clothes into one chest of drawers, with a couple of suits and a few shirts and trousers hanging up on a rack.

Mrs V will occupy much of the wardrobe. At least that is the current situation.

Now that's what I call a cooperative partner - She occupies the wardrobe and you occupy the rest of the room

she does comment I'm big when we are alone in the bedroom

I have an office in one of the other bedrooms, my junk goes there or the shed.
