www.timlayzell.com and get one of his prints. I've seen his stuff at the FOS for the last god knows how many years, and am finally going to dust the cobwebs off my wallet and get one. Absolutely fantastic auto-art (I'm going for the Goodwood racers one)

Got a Dexter Brown print at the FOS about 6 years ago - well worth looking at too.

How about some pictures, paintngs etc that you like. PH ran a thread about motoring related artwork a while ago, I will try to find it.

In the meantime I have this (now hanging on the wall). It was created by a guy on another forum I visit and relates to my car so means a little more than just a random picture.


Ah, but can anybody see what it is? Eh Cotty?;)

You need Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen...

When you find him, get some six inch nails and nail him to a bland wall...

Job's a good 'un....smile

Unlike some of the usual culprits here, I'll refrain from busting your chops about being just a bit more of a gayer than we prefer, so to that end......


















....stop being so fking wet and bother your arse by going to B&Q or Homebase, and get a couple of bloody paint booklets from the paint section, and look at the cting pretty pictures to get a few ideas and see what colours appeal to you - that's what the fking rest of us do!
Then spend a couple of weekends going into some damn shops that sell furniture and fabrics, and get your hobnobs out. When you feel a tingling sensation, you'll know you've found what takes your fancy.
Alternatively, buy a couple of design books by various celebrity designers, and read them for inspiration and tips on how to co-ordinate.


Whilst this post mightn't have livened up your living room, it may have a number of member's computer display, so you'll just have to make do with that.

If all this advice is a little too full on for you to make use of, then buy the Ducati above, and learn to ride the balls off it.
The living room can go VBRJ itself, for all you'll care.

Do what was previously suggested, get a woman, once she moves in,
soon your living room will magically appear cluttered and colourful and you will have so many cushions there will be no space on the sofa for you

Dual purpose

Makes your living room more exciting with a few of these on the floor especially in the dark

And you get the room redecorated every time someone new pops by

A few more remotes would offset the candles though !!
