    Wood grain effect uPVC. Get some plastic Corinthian pillars for out the front at the same time. Adds 1000s to the value of the house.

    Can you not get oak and supplement with curtains drawn during the colder nights?

    I'll see if I can be bothered working out how much it cost my client for me to do that later.
    Damn!

    Sizes don't fit!

    There's a reason that the phrase "yes dear" and the name "she who must be obeyed" were created, they fit this type of situation completely.
