    The Ebay link is to buy from the Works ebay store. Free postage so cheaper that buying direct from them
    if you only want one :cool:

    Bulk buy direct from the Works would work out cheaper.
    I might be bulk buying them if this house move goes on too long :rotfl::rotfl:

    We are waiting for the survey report for the house we are buying. It looked really good but we need to check it's not about to fall down :eek:
    Other than that waiting for the solicitors to be what they do.

    I have no patience so it's hard to wait :o
