    Mmm, not sure about the skirting, I want to be able to run the hoover straight in on the floor without having to lift it.

    The skirting is purely an option, but is one of the things you will need to decide on.
    If you don't have a skirting or floor-frame, you'll need to work out how close your door and drawer front bottoms can get to the flooring before it makes contact; too low and scrapes, too high and you'll have a visible gap along the bottom when the doors are closed - where dust will get in :smile:
    Keep looking at pics, taking these factors into account.

    Can t see anything wrong with the existing storage solution.....but then being a bachelor brings a whole raft of advantages.

    For the draw part I would be tempted to just have a removable panel and then use storage boxes under there.
