This is the existing floor plan

New LCD and AV Equip


Here's the new Philips 37PF9830 (on the motorised stand it comes with).

Still not on the wall yet (the new stud wall behind needs plastering first).

Also shown:

Denon AVC A11XV A/V amp (bottom),
Denon TU-1800DAB tuner,
Sony RDR HXD910 Freeview/HDD/DVD writer.

You can also see my old (Gale) speakers. I'm hoping to replace these with a pair of B&W 805s


But I've also just seen the B&W XT Series - so maybe I should look at XT4?

Garden is looking nice...


Wow, the builders found our long lost path when they were digging the foundations for our new extension! Maybe it was a bit extreme to not do any gardening for the past 3 years because we kept thinking 'what's the point? we're going to have an extension built soon.....'
