    She's telling them nicely: Your "style" is !!!!!!.

    I loved how she made "fashionable" sound like such a dirty word.:D

    Over personalising is a big mistake that many amateur "developers" make.

    It winds me up though.

    Because I can't stop thinking that it was idiots like this with their cheap and easy acces to credit and their over-the-top consumerist tendencies that have contributed to the mess we now find our country and economy in.

    My missus says I should lighten up. But it so annoys me.

    But these ones are about to get their comeuppance, you can just tell.

    i say lighten up too :D

    but yeah, i agree 100%. it doesnt annoy me watching their stupidity and arrogance in their choices/ lack of realism etc , the only bit that annoys me (now, this is evil :D) is that so far theyve all had to 'just keep hold of it until the market picks up again' - (yeah right! :rolleyes:). what i really want to see is the baliffs turning up, and them having to sell their beemers to pay for their beans on toast :o:rotfl:

    I don't mind paint colour: its easy cheap and will change anyay. Its when people want you to pay upmteen thousand extra for their vile one off concrete bath that you're then going to have to pay someone to smash out.
