Nice one. The unexpected ones always bring a smile to the dial.

In saying that, I'm open to new experiences and will give McCain's a fair chance. I'm quite looking forward to it, to be honest.

You have to make your own fun in Korat, after all.

Crack on mate. I'm also curious to hear about how mc cains rate in the highly competitive pea market. There.chips are good but there's no room for imposters when it comes to peas.

Xmas card list? Hope I made it!

Got a fireplace for the bedroom

Stick up your address and I'll send a Christmas card for that fireplace.

(have patience, our postal service is run by swedes, but I'm sure it'll be there next year at the latest )

Its been warm so far this winter. But there's a temp difference between upstairs and down that will get worse when the -20 hits. Some supplimental heat was in order.

^^^ I like the retro 1970s style.

We have a fireplace running all day and evening, when at home.

Wife loves it and battles the cats for the good spot

Umm you've been in se Asia too long if you think that fireplace has anything remotely to do with the 1970's. Its a fireplace. Not a television

the 70s were about backlit fake coal fires with electric bars, Nev is pretty spot on - that is fukin tacky. You could have at least got a modern electric one with a realistic fire behind flush glass. Have you got a sheepskin rug in front of yet?

Anyway, thanks for the memories

Last i checked my car has 4 wheels. You know what .... just like the 70's!! Har har

Wot!

No steering wheel or spare? What do you expect when you pretend to own American crap?

Backspit arguing with people who actually remember the '70s.

Nev is right. And your mantle and trim is dated as well.

So long as it keeps you warm, I guess.

It ain't easy in a world without trousers.

There's no way that's his house or his fireplace though.

This came over my feeds a while ago.

It really reminded me with pretty much any post by backspit....

Backspin will tell you his fireplace has a remote control.

He won’t tell you he isn’t allowed to play with it!

Listen to these clueless fucking doughheads

The all white look is the anti 70's, the anti tacky. Call it boring, call it bland but the last thing it is is fucking 70's. As if I don't know what the aesthetic of the 70's is. Quite evidently it is YOU and the gaggle of fuckwits in this thread that don't know what the aesthetic of the 70's is.
Lets look at the other offerings with tacky and 70's in mind

Here is a 1970's fireplace makeover.

From this .................................................. ................................ to this.



Notice something .... The one on the top is vintage 1970's and it is made over to the clean modern contra 70's look. Which is exactly what mine is.
