I have bunged a Gregory in the post and will bring a Maggie on the night.

This is marginally less sensible than Thom's request. Now pack it in you two!

 

[Wobblers]

I kinda liked the abject misery scenario...I'll have to make do with just my everyday life now...

We could make you wait half an hour to get served if that would help!

I do hope all these puns are beginning to 'ckick'...

Sorry... yes, I'm getting my coat....

Will these bungalows have my favourite bungalow feature, the shutters that wouldn't cover all the way across the window even if you could actually deploy them?

is that a bungalow feature? I'd have thought you were more likely to see them on two storey houses. Waggon wheels I grant you.

I'm a bungalow fan. It's building without architects. I love the colours (although Littlehampton is the place to go for pastel pinks, greens and blues) and I love the expediencey of the 'chalet' roof. I love the materials - the felt roofs, the parged timber walls, and I love the fact that the door is oftentimes slap bang in the middle of the front elevation. It's a reminder of the times when people weren't afraid to build for themselves.

I thought the halftimbering on the one in Rayleigh was brilliant.

Thom - yes and you're on the list......

 

[Aperitif]

perfect thankyou

No it isn't. you didn't leave any space between the 'thank' and the 'you'.

 

[Aperitif]

Titus on Page 3 of that as well?

What's 'hot' on your desk this week Frank - anything interesting?

 

[frank9755]

Nah, it's only the desk that is hot - not what's on it!
