304 Stainless Should Do.

Posted on 27, Oct

For designer stainless steel for your designer home, it has to be said that you can find all sorts over at Trendir. There’s still some life in that old stainless steel dog yet.

Some Rusty Planter Pics

Posted on 3, Oct

Do you recall how John trounced the competition alive in the Trawden Container Competition but I was unable to show you with what? Well now I can.

Not that it should present anyone with too much of a problem in the UK, but seeming today qualifies as a potential [...]
