Washy, just a few more tips for you!

OLD & NEW

The freedom to mix across historical periods and decorative categories is guaranteed to provoke exciting and highly personal looks. The style is about contrast – a giant beanbag against Georgian wood panelling, a modern lounge-lizard sofa set beside vintage chintz curtain, or junk-shop finds displayed in a minimal gallery-like space.

Always be on the look out for new finds – the old & new style is constantly evolving. Highlight the clash of antique and modern with quirky decorative touches. Remember, old doesn't have to mean antique – instead, it may be junk or second-hand, and new needn't be expensive designer acquisitions, it can be a high-street bargain.

For a sophisticated backdrop paint your walls in Ochre White™ from the new Dulux Heritage Classic Whites Collection.

mad brummie · Jan 5th, 2004, 01:03 PM

do you work for Dulux ONED????

Washy · Jan 5th, 2004, 01:07 PM

This thread is starting to sound like conversations I have to have with 'er indoors. Can we spec something else.....

mad brummie · Jan 5th, 2004, 01:12 PM

I think we will be bak to full speccin duties when the spec lists come out for the facelifted cars as people will be looking at getting one, me included

AidenL · Jan 5th, 2004, 01:16 PM

Yeah, we need the new price list and specs..........

Too true. I have to change a SK into a MINI.......

Not sure about a cooper or an S at the moment....I think I want the extra guages though

AidenL · Jan 5th, 2004, 01:25 PM

I wish the speedo would stay in the middle, and put the extra gauges on a pod beside the rev counter......that would be
