Love it, just like you say, bonkers but cool and how great in a mad way is the guy doing it.

Oh I heart GD. I don't watch much tv and really look forward to this.

ColdSancerre · 28/09/2011 22:03

I do like that GD. Well done them!

mousymouse · 28/09/2011 22:09

I'm a teeny weeny bit jealous.

My mum phoned in the middle of it, so I missed a lot of the detail, and was wondering what the MN jury thought! Not a lot of comments tonight.

I loved it! Nice couple, and what they did was amazing.

I liked but he stayed tight lipped on how much it cost didn't he! I'm vare curious!

catsmother · 29/09/2011 13:52

Was absolutely fantastic .... I don't often want to move into the Grand Design homes, though I can usually admire some aspect of most of them, but I'd go there like a shot. Should think that looking out all warm and cosy with a storm raging outside would be wonderful actually !

but on another thread re awful celebs.....someone posted that Kevin Mc was awful and arrogant in RL and now my heart is broken Smile

mousymouse · 01/10/2011 11:50

I really liked the layout/space they have created.
great use of space.
could see this on akward slopy sites as well.

This week!

Lovely barn and design, but quite an intense couple. Or as DP said 'she's a bit barmy'.

But they have quite a large budget for not needing to buy the land.

Tigresswoods · 05/10/2011 21:13

And now I want to fast forward to the final 15 minutes.

mistressploppy · 05/10/2011 21:19

Hmm

ColdSancerre · 05/10/2011 21:26

I really don't like her. She wants it to be different but she can't say why, it's like she just wants everyone to look at her and exclaim over how unique she is. And she hates the countryside.

He seems a lot more committed.

HoldMeCloserTonyDanza · 05/10/2011 21:28

Yes she couldn't bear to live in an ordinary house Hmm

She's too special and unique!

ColdSancerre · 05/10/2011 21:49

Now she doesn't want her unique house, or at least just wants to whinge about having .

I do think GD always seem to go out of their way to show the true side if not good side of those doing the build. It has never come over as a paint them as evil and twist their words type of program, so I do assume what you see is what you get. And what I see is someone who isn't very likeable and won't stay there long.

mousymouse · 05/10/2011 21:50

waiting for the big reveal.
I like the roof and the silos. but the rest? great space but not for living...
am thinking of possible 'bad mil' threads from living with the pil for so long :o

OP posts:
mistressploppy · 05/10/2011 21:51

Yes, yes, ColdSancerre (drooling over your name btw) that's exactly the feeling I get about her

mousymouse · 05/10/2011 21:51

museum is the right term...

Don't like.

mousymouse · 05/10/2011 21:56

I like it but wouldn't want to have to clean live there

OP posts:
ColdSancerre · 05/10/2011 21:57

Mind you she looks a lot younger and better with blond hair depsite the roots.
