This London station clock is one of the favourite items in my living room. Hi Countrylover, I like the London Clock. Very nice. Wanted to get one from Ebay as well but it was too expensive. How much did you pay for that and where did you get it from ? Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most I see locally cost $50 & above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

countrylover 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2008 We finally had the kitchen cabinet installed today. These are some photos of the internal frame. They will come back to install the doors on Monday. A closeup of our dish-drainers and canopy hood. Storage compartments above the washer for laundry and display items. We asked the carpenter to use carpentry to hide the water heater, as it looked really awful. After installation, we realised that our tiffany lamp is too huge and close to the cabinets. Need to ask our electrician to relocate the lighting point, else we can't open and close the top cabinets. Also, noticed some scratches and defects on the laminates and a part of the cabinet wasn't as agreed in the final design. Will feedback tomorrow and hopefully they can rectify it for us.
