Very tacky garden wall/fence
Hi someone is obviously making plastic fences that look a little bit like
brick walls. A week or so back I got out of a car somewhere in Kingston.. no I'm not going to say where, and leaned on the wall and it was warm to the touch and a bit bendy. Basically the front facing structure was made to look like bricks. Oh deary me. Has it really come to this? Brian -- From the Sofa of Brian Gaff Reply address is active |

I suppose it depends what they actually look like and I appreciate you may not be able to give an accurate opinion on that, One of the main uses of such brick look panels is for interior decoration of premises which want the warehouse wall look such as Coffee bars, Boutiques and those shops that sell fake old junk as Shabby Chic amongst a selection of magic stones and candles.

Ah, I see, so its probably someone's idea of a good cheap way to make a
fence. Maybe he is in the trade and has half inched a panel or two of these daft things. No you are right I could not see it,but the person Iwas with told me it looked kind of dark reddy brown and a bit like verticle cobble stones, but more regular with slight symetrical cracks as a wall might have.
