I like the way they've been camouflaged by the shrubbery, another couple of years and those gutters will be invisible

You can tell that a lot of thought's gone into it all. Design, installation, maintenance...

The slate contrasts nicely, shame it'll be obscured soon

I believe it's actually pre Jack. Obviously a family trait.

It will all be gone soon. I'm on a promise and met some very nice men today from Thornton Engineering. They are not on that site though Tahir. The one in your signature.

I didn't bring up my serious concerns about the house martins and hens nests and how cross both are going to be about being evicted for a year. (The house martins rebuilt this year after the trauma of a new roof on the house which left them homeless for awhile.)

Some thing about the name Thornton's just inspires confidence it has to be said.

That and 2 1/2 stone!

Mind you Thorntons in Barnstaple has closed, so I think I may be disappointed and not get my usual stash of truffles this year.

Oh sorry, wrong Thorntons!

I agree, much nicer chocolate to be had. (Anywhere really but anything imported by Lidl beats it easily. )

Good grief, we haven't got that far. There's just been a lot of muttered warnings. However I think we might have some idea before Christmas day. Is this a good or bad thing?

Words like commercial biomass have been thrown around as well.

anything from lidl, or anywhere else is better than American chocolate. I quite like divine chocolate.

I like Lindt for mainstream stuff. Or Co-op own brand.
