We’ve just been researching vinyl at various shops. I prefer to go to smaller shops but carpet right is open.......who knew floor coverings were essential items 🤔🤔 and the shops are open. Anyway we’re popping to look at some vinyl in the morning and will get whatever is in stock so the bathroom can move on.....he needs the vinyl before the toilet goes in situ. But only mentioned this on Friday 😏😏January spends - £587.582
