Right here are the rules.

You have a budget of £1,000000

You have to find a hideous house with rank decor and nasty stained shagpile carpets. Extra points awarded for gold gilt taps and bars or entertainment rooms and pink flamingoes on the ornamental pond/rockerie. AND if anyone can find a room which has carpeted walls and ceiling they will win hands down

Happy hunting.

I like the faux wattle and daub ceiling (from a house built in the 20s!) on that last one.

Nbg · 20/02/2006 19:10

blue leather anyone?

charliecat · 20/02/2006 19:20

i think this is vile

pootlepod · 20/02/2006 19:47

fairly hideous

more beams than you could shake a stick at

pootlepod · 20/02/2006 19:53

I have had to go slightly over budget as millionaires have quite a bit of taste round here- not so for multi-millionaires.

number 1

number 2

number 3

CountessDracula · 20/02/2006 20:06

pootlepod your number 3 is a classic!

Some really horrendous offerings - how much money do these people strip off the prices of their homes doing this stuff

And what is it with people who put kitchens in their bedrooms? (see picture 6 of 8 on the ngb blue leather one link)

CountessDracula · 20/02/2006 20:06

so who is going to be brave enough to post piccies of their interiors and have us rip them to pieces?
