Showrooms: Smoke And Mirrors

We're going to completely redo our kitchen from scratch, literally demolish what's there and start again, so we've been looking at the kind of kitchen sets and fitted kitchen packages we could get.

We went to visit a kitchen showroom, and the salesman was an absolute genius at selling some quite gorgeous kitchens, but the problem I was having was how impractical it all was.

You walk around and swoon at all the beautiful, spacious kitchens kitted out with Smeg fridges and Bibo water coolers and decide you just have to have them. But you're completely forgetting that this kitchen layout is the size of your entire flat - where on earth are you going to fit a breakfast bar?

We were completely sold on one, but once we'd left the buzz of the showroom we came to our senses, and now we're back to the drawing board.
