    Pebble dash is horrendous. It would depress me driving into that every day. Hate everything about it. So old grey + depressing.

    Seriously: why in Earth would you go on national TV as a project manager and show everyone and their mother how you add more than a third to the budget and talk such gibberish to justify this?
    He should be smarter than that.

    I can’t agree more. They’d have been better off to say budget was 1million combined fir purchase and renovation.

    I think it will turn out Dermot is sticking with this love of Pebble Dash in order to win a bet with someone. Sort of "Jesus that's awful. Even you couldn't convince them to keep that.. You're on. And I'll bet you double I'll get them to use it indoors also"

    Just because you're qualified as an accountant or project manager doesn't mean you're a good one.

    Ffs plywood. I swear you could just record bits every week + replay them. 900k for house + plywood kitchen that you would get in 1980s in council house. Everyone's dream.
