Default Contiboard, oh high street where has it gone?

Yes its stupid. What is wrong with wood veneer? I had some shelves put up
using this and it was a bit of a hunt to get the right wood effect in the
right sizes.
I blame Brexit.

There was a time, before Ikea, that folks used to visit Homebase and other
usual suspects, to buy that fake wood effect 15mm melamine foiled
chipboard to knock up the odd cabinet to house the HiFi, or to use the
same to make gravity defying shelves.

There was a tasteful choice of either shades of brown wood all the way to
silver and black.

Wind forward to 2019, and it seems the only colour available from sheds is
white - unless I find a specialist retailer?

Grrrr...
