[The Sheriff]

Just had a visit for measure and free quote for some vertical blinds, 3 windows about 4-5ft wide and about a 4ft drop. While he was measuring he showed me the samples, seemed a bit thin and flimsy but he assured me that's what they are all like and reminded me that there is 50% off at the moment.
He finished measuring and I chose the material and he put all the info into his little gizmo.
Right sir, he said, that comes to ...........£749......half price......£374.50.

We'll....I laughed...I laughed and laughed......I was still laughing as he got in his van and drove off.

£750, I could get new windows for that.

THE most expensive blind supplier there is.

You could pick those blinds up for circa £150 and fit yourself from the likes of Ambition Blinds

Blinds2go have great reviews, I think that's the way I'm going to go.

These direct sales companies make me laugh.  They advertise a 50% sale, but don't advertise any prices so you don't know what you are getting 50% off! 

Any 'national' home improvements company should be given a very wide berth in my opinion.    Find a local independent if you don't want to DIY.

Yes, there ok, used them before, I rate Ambition Blinds higher to be honest (the material is better quality and the same as that you get from Hilarys)

He's only jealous that he doesn't have a portable 40ft fridge to keep his house cool in the summer...

Dunelms made to measure...

Maybe you could go for curtains instead? Would look nice with some nice matching cushions.

How about a chaise longue?

You got to be kidding............Curtains! cost a ficking fortune for one bay window for 2 pairs to ensure a fit, and we never close the the ficking things..............
