    I looked and looked and looked.. Anything i saw for the corner in my bed room was wither ****e or too big or 300euro.

    So, what i did was head down to Homebase, bought some covered MDF (really nice cherry wood finsh). 2 lenths of 2 x 4 (about 6ft each). I got busy with a jigsaw and power screw driver.

    Couple of hour later i had the corner desk i wanted. Fit perfectly. Perfect heighth. And everytime i look at it i know i made it (can easily tell by the non straigh jigsaw cuts).

    Anyway..
    new desk from somewhere like argos/ikea 300euro ( the ones i liked)
    new desk DIY styley 50euro.

    That is some desk alright.

    It is pretty cheap and easy to make your own desk. An 8 foot by 6 foot sheet of plywood is ony €37. It is not much more difficult than a flat pack

    If you build they will come.

    Build, Build, Build. The sliding tray for keyboard rollers can be expensive though. I think they cost me 30-40 a pair! Very handy for when u are eating at the computer.

    I take it the Lian Li desks are not available in Ireland?

    Of course if they were, I could only imagine what price we'd be charged :o

    You could also have a look in the dcb group catalogue, they have loads of those curved corner type desks.
