'Eco' and 'sustainability' ticked off in the first minute, we should play Grand Designs bingo, special bonus prize if she is pudden'd by the end of the programme.
And they are going to set it all out with a bit of string in 16 weeks. What can possibly go wrong.

All the bits arrived and seemed to fit. Kevin seemed to forget deriding the string...kenny wrote:'Eco' and 'sustainability' ticked off in the first minute, we should play Grand Designs bingo, special bonus prize if she is pudden'd by the end of the programme.

Re: Grand Designs
I likes it.
Staircase is a bit meh, especially for all the effort they put into it.
But did they leave the toilet untiled? Obviously a woman's idea; any man would know the wood would be stained yellow within a month.

Re: Grand Designs
I did like that... although, from certain angles, could not help thinking that it looked like porta-cabins stacked up.
So, did they have any privacy in any of the bed rooms?... blinds?
Did any of the windows open?... bet it's cosy in the summer.

Re: Grand Designs
Some features were ok, I like the minimalistic timber style when it's done well but it was just a big rectangular fish tank with some nice timber cladding.

Re: Grand Designs
I liked the manufactured timber frame, I liked the staircase, although I think I would have put a venier on it. Their furniture didn't go with the style of building. and what's up with Kevin ,has he had the snip ?

Thought this was a new series - all I am seeing is the same bunch of fairy folk building a gang hut out of some trees?
