A friend of mine went to a builders merchant last week to order 1,100

Have they really gone up that much, or did they just decide he looked
gullible enough to single handedly fund their Christmas bonus?

Probably about right as some bricks, especiaslly LBC's, have gone up
considerably. I recently had some heathers at £450 per thousand plus
Vat. Surprisingly though there are also some bargains about. EH Smiths
are knocking out Oxten red multi's at £185 per thou plus vat??
