Some female company probably wouldnt go amiss, having a well odd time here in bristol, feeling all wintery and all that crap, and nothing would be better right now than a cute lass wrapped up in a long woolen coat, and scarf, with my arm around her taking a walk along a waterfront, or through a park.

And the number of times I have been over my overdraft allowance in the last ten years from my bank would be handy, but they are retarded and cant do simple sql queries.

As for actual presents, Ive no idea. Money would probably be the most useful :) Failing that, a double bed, a 3 seater sofa, and some cupboards/sideboard style stuff.

I got nice stuff.. thats why I aint got them yet :-D

Boiler is £1200 before the extras like wireless thermo, flew, installation, etc.
Kitchen has been quoted at 1500 inc installation. Thats for a total of 8 units :-(
Also got granite worktops that need to be cut - thats going to cost another £400.

Still to lay 50sq Meters of Parquet blocks. been quoted £500 for that.

+ the fresh plaster thats been plastered so far still needs painting.
Thats 4 bedrooms, Hall Landing, Front Room & Sitting room... Erm & I still need to tile the bathroom & put flooring down throughout  & new Internatl doors :-D

When thats all done Ill start on the attic. Upgrading the rafters from 3x2 to 6x2 & convert it into a room.

After that Ill be getting the outside of the house thermally Rendered & finally replace the windows for Box Sash windows & the front door & 2x sets of rear patio doors.

Total cost £20k Value - costs = profit of £15K

hey egg, you got a spec or product name for the thermal render mate?
need to get mine redone in the new year (solid brick walled house)

No Idea, but have a look around google & theres grants available if you qualify.. (I dont :-( )
Search for wall insulation.

If its brick, you may be able to get cavity insulation which is a lot lot cheaper. - If theres no cavity, then your in the same boat as me :D
