Watched strictly last night, down to 5. Don't know the results yet. Haven't asked hubby.
@Colin I watch homes under the hammer, it's a down to earth program. It's on at 10.am Monday to Friday, i always record it and watch it in the evening.Hi,
Bron and I didn't bother watching Grand Designs last night alp; the short description in the TV times was enough to put us off.
It's amazing how these people can obtain huge mortgages for something they want rather than they need whereas many struggling families can't obtain a smaller mortgage for something they really need. The whole world seems upside down these days. Would they obtain such a mortgage without being the subject of a TV programme?
Flat roofs are definitely bad news whatever they are covered with; moss isn't welcome on roofs yet how many are following like sheep and adding sedum to their roofs; I'm sure if one person had a pile of manure dumped on their front room carpet saying it's the in-thing then others would do likewise.
We want nothing on our roof with the exception of a chimney; no solar panels at all which I don't trust feeling they are just something else to go wrong. In say five years time how much money will it cost in maintenance alone for one of these huge houses. I think Grand Designs is now breeding sheer stupidity but as I've said previously the person spending the money calls the tunes so although I'm very unimpressed by many of these houses I really shouldn't criticise after all we aren't forced to watch the program.
Here's something I find much more interesting and something I can relate to;
Kind regards, Colin.
