Glanza-Love Posted October 22, 2010 Author Share Posted October 22, 2010 thanks mate.was always paranoid that it wouldnt look that decent. its a major step in life so i wanted to get things the right way.i think i relised how exspensive a house is when i left with over £100 worth of paint and all it was, was like 2 big tins paint, 1 tub of emultion and 1 tub of gloss.. i was like wow!
