Room planning prog

Just wondering if anyone knows of any free room designy software? I want to plan out our bathroom on squared paper but can't be bothered to draw it all out or buy graph paper.

I know that you can use Visio to do room layout's, but I don't know about a free trail with it though.

I'm sure MFI had one online... at least they used to

Ikea do one I think.....

Google SketchUp maybe?

I used MS Visio when I was planning switching stuff between two bedrooms. I found it pretty easy to work with. It has loads of basic shapes you can use and modify and is totally drag and drop so you can move things about easily.

If you have, or can get hold of a copy, I can recommend it

Thanks for the suggestions - going to try the Google one first.

I tried MFI and couldn't find anything and I used the Ikea one with the kitchen and know that it only works with Ikea's own products. I want to put my own dimensions for the units/suite in. I suspect MFI would be the same.

Don't have any access to MS Visio and it's not that crucial so I don't want to spend money on it.

Thanks anyway

Surely all you need is a pencil and the back of a fag packet?
