I am thinking that wooden blinds would be good in the new conservatory — my brother and sister in law got some for theirs a few weeks ago and I really liked them.
Though to be honest they will be pretty low down on the priority list of things we need in the new house.
A sofa and a bed might come in handy before we start on decoration lol
We don’t even have any furniture for the conservatory yet so I guess it’s going to be at least a few months before I need to start searching around for blinds!
The ones my brother and sister in law got were pretty expensive though, when she told me how much they cost I had a jaw drop moment — especially as she was telling me that they got them really cheap. I wonder if they were just expensive because they chose expensive ones, or if all wooden blinds cost a similar amount? Hmm.
I guess I should look into it before deciding that I want some, because usually once I have decied I want something that is what I have to get otherwise I feel let down.
That makes me sounds really spoiled hehe

..in a slightly new guise as it will be called ‘Britains Biggest Loser’, but still huzzah! Big news for Biggest Loser UK fans, it’s coming back! Honestly I thought this was axed for good, but it’s been picked up by ITV and even more excitingly it’s going to follow the Australian format of being on nightly rather than just once a week. Awesome.
ITV1 has commissioned Britain’s Biggest Loser, a daily weight-loss show based on the original US format.
Loser follows the lives of dramatically overweight people as they undertake a strict diet and exercise regime in order to shed pounds. Participants begin in couples, but ultimately only one person can walk away with the cash prize.
A UK version was previously made for Living TV in 2005 and fronted by Vicki Butler-Henderson. It was axed after two series, with eventual I’d Do Anything champ Jodie Prenger winning the second series.
The Biggest Loser format has been adapted in 25 different territories including Australia, Brazil and the Middle East.
ITV daytime controller Adam McDonald said of the commission: “I’m thrilled that this global smash is now coming to ITV1. The phrase ‘life changing show’ is overused in telly but this compassionate, compelling format does just that.”
Executive producer Karen Smith added: “Britain’s Biggest Loser is much more than a reality show, it is a daily, real-life soap opera with inspiring personal journeys and unbelievable transformations which are life changing.”
