Ah ha, another one for the Annoy thread: Grand Designs homeowners*, especially the anchors with the old violin factory

* Honourable exceptions: the couple with the Huf Haus; the couple who redeveloped the old leccy sub-station (with a Mini in the living-room); the woodsman who built his house from local trees and clay 8)

Wasn't the Huf Haus one where, the male of the couple was an architect and they were building on the plot of the recently demolished house he had designed and built only 40 years previously.

Design and build a house to last 40 years, what a brilliant idea. :?

So these people spend a great deal of time, effort, angst and money on a 'grand 'design' home and there is another one just up the road. :?

Is that ALL rhyming slang? :?

No they really did have an old violin factory. This is one I've not come across before.
