    Most offputting.

    And the vertical ridge on the left makes it look like it's a caravan makeover.

    This was what I actually went out to snap, but the light was all wrong as I went at the wrong time - and there were too many random kids who kept shooting up into view over the rocks, then wading across.... so I took some snaps as I was there and will go back when the light's better.

    Let's face it, I've no experience of posh interiors - never seen one in real life...... so my opinion isn't the opinion of the posh target market :)

    We saw friends last night who told us that the investment return meant we should get solar panels. We apparently need to act quickly so phoned the people they used a few months ago, they haven't phoned back :(

    You are too late to get the FiT that was offered before but it can still be worth considering as current prices for a full system start around £7500.
    I do work alongside an electrical company who fit them and they think there will still be a market, mainly down to installed system costs dropping.

    I couldn't tell you what the new FiT is though.

    Michaels parents system will take 10 years + to get even with a long term high interest account. You may well be able to do similar with a £7500 system on the new Fit.

    That's what you need to look at if your considering proceeding with a solar system.

    Lydia is hot on this subject :D;)

    Are there any more curly nice people?

    Is zag one or have i imagned that?
    Yes I'm one, until I cut it very short then it's straight.:D It seems ironic that hair grows faster in the summer just when you don't need it to be so thick.

    Getting hints from my betters that I should get it cut :eek:

    Is that the opposite of an infinity pool?

    Infinity pool is a man made pool and pumped watered made to look like its out at sea,

    whereas that is filled with sea water and the concrete walls are all too visible.
