I thought we were keeping the fact that you were ‘ Handy Andy’ in a former life our little secret MH ?

Anyway the problem with any fabulous project is that the stuff around it suddenly seems tatty and dated

I suggest to finish the look you make something like this for your mum . You know , Uber modern , sleek , superb craftsmanship using only the finest materials .
If you could manage something like this for say £800 I am sure your mum would cry with happiness .
