    If you like go here ( http://www.9wsyr.com/content/bridge_street/voting_contest.aspx) and vote for counter top #3. It will help. If you have an aversion to loading the vote for a local geek - I understand. He may not and packet flood you, but hey thats the chances we all take, right? :p

    You have to fill a form, but it doesn’t have to be real information.

    Voted... even if I can't stand Julie Abbott...... The stories IO could tell you about how she acts off the air....... She likes to frequent the shops in Armory Square, and if you recognize her and say anything, she turns into the rudest person you'll ever meet.


    Anyways :)

    #3 actually had one of the better looking kitchens, apart from the putrid sink color, lol!. Now, the pink kitchen with all the stains in it. THAT was definitely a puke job! :puke

    But I voted for #3, anyway. ;)

    I thought the pick one was so bad it had to be staged.

    @ Wench - You don;t know him..well sort of. He is the guy I bought the dog day care from. He works IT @ St Joes.

    @ Calltaker. next time you see her shout "Hey aren't you Carrie Lazzerus?" That should get her to start acting nicer. ;)

    Brilliant canary yellow might look good on some things, but I personally prefer something that I don't have wear my sunnies before entering the kitchen.

    @ C.P.:- Yeah I was thinking that the pinko was staged at first. Then I remembered that some guys I know actually have a worse kitchen for real. :eek: Needless to say, I don't eat there, when they offer!

    I'ld vote for your mate just so he can get a new kitchen because I can see things that could improve kitchen efficiency and be easier to keep clean (that other swollen bench top is also screaming for help).

    Granite bench top...:drool just so long as you don't put stove hot pots on it.

    Good luck to your friend...hope it all works out!

    Cheers

    :D
    Granite tops are ok for pots direct from the cooker( i have them) the only thing to be a little bit careful of is cutting citrus fruit directly on the granite,here in Belgium they treat the granite to make it ok but i am not sure about the rest of the world (i should think it's ok we are just a little backwater in Europe)

    Guess the granite tops I've seen so far haven't been treated as yours. I'm careful with mine. I use pot mats - won't risk hot pots and always use a board on the sink for cutting fruit/veg/etc...so far still looking good as new 7 years down the track, so worth the money long term (good bye to swollen benchtops!).

    By copy to CP: I'm sure your friend would enjoy a new kitchen. Again, I wish him luck.:wave

    Cheers
