Thanks Masona. I am waiting on my builder to get a price for one. It will be useful to compare his offering to the one you found. As this is going to be positioned just outside that back door, the more discrete the better so I am thinking of one of those things you can put bricks or...

There is a fence to be sat on here and I'm parked right on it. I take the points about the need for tradesmen to put food on table, that you get what you pay for and that though some products say the same thing on the packaging they are not the same. But I am not comfortable with the...
