You might want to consider having lights at bathroom mirrors switched from the wall outside the bathroom door. That would you won't be restricted to a limited range of pull-chord lights.
Good idea, but there seems to be a greater selection of those "pull chord" types and hence they seem to be cheaper.
Well you have a choice of both pull-chord and all others if you put the switch outside.
skippy above is spot on with the cat 5e to every room, but also at your flatcreen tv you should if possible bring a scart lead to it, from where you will be leaving your dvd player etc, you can now buy 10 m scart leads from elec wholesalers
Not quite, there are regulations relating to the type of electrical fittings and where they may be placed in bathrooms.
There are more safety issues here than the placement of the switch. As this BBC article states: "Don't ever be tempted to use a conventional light fitting that's not intended for bathroom use."

Hi all,
Electrician will be wiring my new house shortly.Just basically looking for any tips or pitfalls to avoid when specifying to him what I want.
I want to have 2 flat screen tv's hung on wall in sitting room + in main bedroom.After that I am fairly flexible as regards lighting etc.
I suppose any pitfall re: number and location of sockets or anything else.
I also want to have an electric gates in the entrance to my house,i persume i have to get him to run a wire from house to where gates will be?
Also I would like some external lights,i have seen some house,which have nice spot light in the ground,lighting up front of house?
Just like to have some ideas and some of the lingo before i talk to him about what i want to do?
Thanks for any feedback.
