There is not much space to fit a 40" flat screen, 1000mm X 580 in a corner position, but that is the only place it can go. Whether a smaller 32" inch model would be appreciated !!, bigger is always better, lol. Lurking. Ps. those cupboard doors don't close because of the quakes. lurks.	Lurking (218)

One can get a full picture through the menu options, but that square screen is two thirds the width does not hold up and has to be kept being menued for each channel change. She thinks a 32 inch flat screen would fit the space, but I would prefer the 40 inch, which would be a better definition no doubt. Thanks for your reply. Lurking.	Lurking (218)

1273723	2012-05-05 22:40:00	...also, I used to have that carpet in my bedroom, but with a purple and pink color scheme. Not even joking. It was so bright you could almost see it glow when the lights were off.	pine-o-cleen (2955)

EQC did not say they would be pulling the rest of the chimney out tho. Lurking.	Lurking (218)

It was so bright you could almost see it glow when the lights were off. Yes that carpet is 44 years old and the Grandkids have worn it through, not that we mind that. EQC state they are going to pull it up to get under the house to level it all up. This was our intention before Feb 2011, but the hearth would have to have been taken out to make it look right, ECAN had blocked off the open fire and gave us a pretty poor heat-pump. The place is so drafty now we have Gary Lowe putting in an another additional one, last year it was pretty damn cold and we don't want to go through that again. Lurking.	Lurking (218)

Add a bit for the bezel, my 46" bravia has 2 inches each side which makes it 44" wide - exactly 4" more than the calculator said it would be which is right. Most newer TV's have less bezel than that, some have virtually none	dugimodo (138)
