    Unfortunately, not anyone that skilled. I will try to see what I can come up with. I'll post some pics up if I do get it done.

    Just to let you guys know... I ended up building my own little desk. Got the parts from Ikea... ran me up about £16. Not bad if I do say so myself.

    Bought a pack of 2 shelfs (PAX Shelfs 75x58), and 4 of these stands. Going to add some cable trunking to make the space look a little tidier.

    Anyone got any other suggestions on what I can do with this space? Was also thinking of a pull out keyboard, but the one in Ikea (here) is not very good, in my honest opinion.

  • We picked up a cute little desk at Tesco yesterday, on sale for £10 or £7.50 (not sure, we bought a bookshelf too lol)

    It's very very cheap. Looks small but decent
