Funnily enough, despite what I said in my earlier post about walls, I was looking at those stone wall effect ones just the other night! LOL.

The one I saw only had the print on one side though, which kind of put me off. Is yours only one sided, moonstone?
I'd still prefer polycotton though, in all honesty.

I may look a little harder, when I can be bothered! (Not in any rush).

You always looked well 'ard to me. Or it may have been the way you were walking.

Stop it!

Kind of reminds me of the Mae West quote "is that a gun in your pocket or are you just excited to see me"

Mcguire, I kid you not. I'm laid out on the assessment bed being checked by my consultant for my last op.

He says, "is that an iPhone in your pocket?"

I say "no, I'm just pleased to see you".


It's funnier if you've been waiting for 4 months to get an appointment.

yup...ours are one sided...the non-printed side is basically a bleached off-white cotton colour...on sunny days the wall pattern shows thru on the blank side, but i can't say that the plain side bothers me...if anything it's a nice colour that reflects a lot of light...plus it is definitely better than having to look out onto the garish stripey plastic windbreaks we endured for many many years...oh and the stone wall effect really does look extremely cool from a distance...

iPhone 4 or 5...? Bit of difference in size. Made me laugh out loud by the way.

You now realise your on the special NHS visitor list. No consultations without two members of staff being present....

LOL. 'pparently, he's a huge Apple fanboy. The irony is, mine's a Samsung Galaxy. I wouldn't entertain a Cupertino product. But yes, I'm on some kind of NHS register, "special precautions necessary"
