Oh and I found those paint chips last week when I went paint shopping with Chris... LOL... he left me and went off on his own because he said there was no way the store would believe that I needed all those chips to decide what colour to paint my bathroom!! Poop... what does he know, they let me walk out of there with a three inch thick wadge of them and loads of those little clips to hold them together!!
