Sorry guys, guess I won't be posting any more pics! and you can't see any of the old ones. Boooo. If anyone is still interested you can look at my blog. http://www.tashandpaul.wordpress.com.

I have contacted VBA and Building Dispute resolution and they fully supported me, and have informed me to legally they can get it from them,and that I shouldn't be paying them money for their past work done on the house.
