    Do you know any tradesmen or do any of your collegues/relatives/friends know of any? If so see if any of those deal with Howdens & ask that they order your kitchen units on their account.
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.

    Was that just units!?

    I have sent you a pm - I didn't realise what the Glendevon Cream was - we've already bought one this year which we had delivered to a different county and we're buying another one in the next couple of weeks so I know exactly the prices on many of the units.

    I can get that price right down, without question.

    I've sent you a pm again. I'm more than happy to get you a quote; without a doubt it will be cheaper.

    I don't know if you have access to them with only a few posts? At the top of the page it will say 'welcome merhopkins - You last visited: " and then your pm box is there. You literally click on the words 'private messages' to access it
