Farhaad,I have to be honest....I love the time and result that everything you work on brings. Love the reflectors and now that parcel shelf is to die for!

Pop round to mine with it and I can arrange for it to become mine :twisted:

Seriously.....love it!

i thought u'd like it. the nice thing is that the original cane used is so light that u can just about stain it any colour u want. i think a nice light grey (or lime wash), close to your original ones, would look good in rosie
