Looks like someone accidentally dropped a castle on a new school wing.

I'll wait for the final building though...

Damn, I just added to a different GD thread.

Looks like a good'un

I can never fully understand how a normal person can generate the huge sums of cash needed to fund these things. Maybe i need to work harder, or sell some body parts.

Always good telly this :-)

[Jasandjules]

Can't wait to see it finished (I hope we do get to!).

He doesn't need a bright yellow hat to make him look like a prick.

I would so like to push him off that hill.


I would love to see a different presenter on the programme, that way I think I could be able to watch a whole episode.

Ah well, back to the footy

I guess one has to spend ones bonus before the chancellor snaffles it up.

They're a banker (wonder if he still is?) and a PR Consultant (whatever that is).

Yes - 2 years ago. But it didnt mention the size.

went out to 7 or 8 contractors and only 2 came back with even a price. Client's funding doesnt seem like a problem, can't help but wonder what put them all off

[jazzybee]

Pink dayglo jacket and hardhat! Odd!

Who says wishful thinking doesn't work. Is that why that yellow hat is wedged on his nut?

Tonight's programme was delayed as he was in hospital in France and couldn't do the voice-over pieces. Guess he must have recovered somewhat.

Poor Hubby is probably killing himself working 100 hour weeks to pay for it.....

[jazzybee]

I'm going to say I like it.

[Tuna]

Got to hand it to them - they've made the process look easy and well managed. Good on 'em. Depressingly nice and successful couple.
