    edit: They are like the fifth ones on this google image page.:) I know they won't be to a lot of people's taste...which might be why I like them. They are really quite large and make me giggle.

    edit again...http://www.google.co.uk/images?q=rougier+lamp&um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&tbs=isch:1&sa=N&start=0&ndsp=20

    I'm sure I linked....its not breaking a rule is it? I've linked to things before?

    Lost - are these them?

    Can I just clarify - it is perfectly fine to link to images and websites. The only issue is, MSE towers have recently introduced a rule where users aren't allowed to link to their own blog pr website, or mention it in their posts .

    So, examples of things which may not be acceptable

    I have a blog
    I blogged it
    Here's my blog
    See my profile for a link to my blog
    Check out my website

    This post by Penelope Penguin explains it really well, and quotes the specific rule in question, and has the relevant part highlighted

    I hope this clarifies things :):A

    Thank you zippychick, I understood that rule now, but was worried that by linking I was going to break another new rule I didn't know about, lol. I don't want to be a rule breaker. :)

    Yes, thats them!

    lostinrates. they not my cup of tea, but i can see how appealing they are . as they just so unusal. definatly a talking point and something a bit glam for the house. they will look stunning when lit i'd imagine.

    i'm very much for tiffany style lamps at the mo. but they are not to al taste's.

    Yippee!

    If you complete i four weeks, you'll be in before us! we can share packing/unpacking horror and excitement. We complete at the beginning of a week, but thats tough for DH who'll not see it till a friday. I plan to go over and clean really thoroughly before having anything com in to it. I know bringing stuff in, especially the stuff that has been in storage, will make mess again, but it will be nice to start from a good clean base.

    We've decided to start packin the stuff we won't need now.
