So stupid, so fantastic. Hilarious runty little door handles too.

Does it literally just rotate 180º?! That’s the kind of bullshit first-thought solution I love.

It looks like it’s going to be a great space when it’s done, but your numbers are making me scared about my plans for our purchase-in-progress.

Not my bike m8

Better how? Would be good to know for next time. I didn’t notice anything sub-par with them and the cat was always happy sitting on them. Someone else’s problem now anyhow.

Found these from when they were fitted

Here's a far away one. I'm sure I've got a close-up one somewhere, will have a rummage.

Planning to move my radiators under the bay window, probably 3 of these in series, any potentially issues with that?

This is what we did, no issue. They ended up quite tight for space in the curve so the pipework was a little bit fussier than ideal, but it all worked in the end.

I hd some from Silent Gliss, deets in the interior design thread.

I suggest slowing down to circa 5mph on it to get a good look at the stones, just like everybody else.

Actual #csb – drove to devon two weeks ago (moving, not an eye test jobby). First time I've gone past the henge at the actual speed limit. thanks corona!

The World Heritage designated monument is also not just Stonehenge, it is Stonehenge and the surrounding environ, which includes Avebury, the Avenue/Mall, the Kings Barrows etc etc. Pisses all over the pyramids.

Your affection for the A303 is greater than mine.

Step 1: find something that looks good and does the job

Step 2: work out how to pay for it

I think I need to reevaluate my decision making process.

Something like this is up your street, surely? Definitely gets points for being fantastically expensive.

fluoro tripptrapp is 👌

“Hey guys, I know smoking looks cool but is bad for your health. How can I smoke without the harmful effects?”

I think bio-ethanol might be the house equivalent of vaping? The right answer is likely just point your furniture at your telly instead.

The distant roar of the a2 is a bit like being by the sea.

@amey will enjoy this before/after. It is only a shame there isn’t an accompanying Instagram account and some Burrill on the walls.

In the last few weeks I'd open and close them and open them again just because.

Cheaper on a cost-per-use than the bath tap in the shiny bathroom that convinced my wife it was time to sell up (I never even had a bath in it!). Only the child got the benefit of that really, and I reckon we were still comfortably in the double digits on a CPU basis when we moved out. Wish I'd known what the future held before getting that in.

We lived in that house for 7.5 years and only had curtains for the last 8 months once there was a baby about and my wife didn't fancy feeding with the whole street looking in. Wish we'd either gotten around to it sooner or not bothered at all.

Floor to ceiling linen/cotton blend lined curtains, pencil pleat; whatever's near the top of the Silent Gliss hierarchy for the tracks (SG 3900 I think), one bent to fit a bay (wall-to-wall), the other a simple run across French windows to garden. All lovely. From memory it was £2.6k. Fitted Feb 2020, unexpectedly sold the house in October. Buyer initially refused to pay for the curtains, after some further visits and a bit of measuring paid the £800 we asked for them. Still slightly sore about it. Removals guys managed to get a big muddy footprint on one too, somehow. Obligatory flos glo-ball up there too, took that with us.

If you're south London, we spent a small fortune on Silent Gliss loveliness from Designer Drapes in penge and the customer service was great, would recommend them.

hrumph can't make it work. have you considered just eating off your laps on the sofa and sacking off the dining table? ;)

have you got a roughly-scale top-down drawing? I've got a mad suggestion but I want to doodle it before I say it out loud.

haha! It was such a ballache to get it dealt with. Illums Bolighus are the only people with it correctly listed (at least in-store when I was there), so credit to them for getting their tape measures out. There was not a single dimension of the unit that I could get to tally with the published specs; inner, outer, whatever. No idea where they got them from.
