Cow catcher I thought.

You should really start a new thread for something so trivial as this one is dedicated to a serious matter.

oraclesmith, that's what I want.

If that doesn't work just take 3 deep sniffs. You won't give a sh1t then

Just ignore the chipped tile

And fit a cowcatcher to your Aygo.

I always get confused between the toilet - the actual think you tulip in - and the room. For a moment there I thought you had a toilet made of tiles!

Anyway...if it were me...I'd replace it. Its pretty easy to remove a broken tile. Remove the cement below and replace. Then redo the grout.

If the house was forsale I'd just leave it.

I could ignore the chipped tile. But there is a transitive 2-step relation that you are not taking account of:
Partner does not ignore chipped tile.
I do not ignore partner.

Anyway...if it were me...I'd replace it. Its pretty easy to remove a broken tile. Remove the cement below and replace. Then redo the grout.

If it were me, I'd replace it too, if I had a spare. I keep spares but the previous owner did not.

Swap it with a tile that isn't in a conspicuous place (being careful not to chip the good one when you take it off).

Good thought. (though as I said, if I were careful I wouldn't be in this position...)

Yeah, I think it's a bit of a mare trying to get a tile off a wall without chipping or cracking it. You'd have at least two chipped tiles to handle afterwards. But the good news is that once you've got one tile out, the rest (perhaps a dozen or more by this time) will be much easier to remove.
