I dn't like laminated flooring, makes me cringe

In Thailand there is so much nice wood flooring to be had; teak parquet, for instance, can be around B450 a sq m, or less

In the begining I could have agreed with this, although it didn't exactly "make me cringe".

I remember when we were in the sales office looking at each other when they mentioned "wood laminate" floors upstairs and we made a point of checking it out when we were shown the "Show House".

Eventually we decided to "let sleeping laminate lie" as it was inclusive in the quoted house price and we could always have it re-laid at a later date.

Also, as we are not "full time" permanent residents yet, we decided to leave it for the moment although we have seen some beautiful "Teak Parquet" in a friends house, and we will eventually replace it.

Thanks for the imput ...
