Dundee/Perth Lamite Flooring Fitting
I was quoted £30 per square metre for the fitting of laminate flooring in my hallway by a local joiner. This fitting was an awkward shape as it needed fitting around the stairs etc. I was recommended Selective Surroundings of Dundee by a local carpet shop employee. I was quoted £10 per square metre, a saving of £180!…

Where do you get your meat? I live literally 1 minute walk from a huge Asda supermarket in Glasgow and the meat isn't very good.
