Thanks.
Aargh! (but it matches the email address...)
try ikea. they have some 3' x 4' ish mirrors for about 60 quid well, they did in bristol a few weeks ago. YMMWV
a) There's been a thread largely condemning the use of the word 'peeps'. b) Your email address starts 'allo'...
nope! it starts allo@ha as in greetings of the hawiian ilk. :-)
When you've finished, it's £140 6mm no bevel.
So go to IKEA and buy a cheap one.
I will now treasure the one that's bigger, has holes cut for hanging and cost me £15 at the local glazier 20 years ago!
out at half that price.
Thanks anyway MrP.
You won't get it for half...you may be lucky and get it for a tenner a square foot, which will still make it £120
Bought about the same size (to order) myself, drilled at 4 corners, cost me bout £35 5 years ago.

I have one propping up my garage wall. 4'x3' bevel edge, used to have a nice gilt frame now covered in what otherwise would have covered the garage wall. No guarantee it will improve bedroom performance but yours for a modest sum:-)

My modest sum would be 40GBP,but you're probably somewhere out of reach of this neck of the woods. :-)
If 750mm x 950mm (29.5" x 37.5" ish) with drilled holes and bevelled edges is near enough, I've one in good nick that I took off the bedroom wall a couple of weeks ago.
Email me if you're interested.
You'll need to collect from Leeds, though...

I'd call that generous:-)
I'm fond of complaining that I farm within 15 miles of 1 million plus people which gives a rather centre-ist view of location. Mid-West Herts.

I'd say about £120 these days...
Thanks for the offer,but its too small.
mmm, 400% inflation in 5 years, must be some sort of civil war I hadn't heard about in Sherwood.
What is the mirror for? In theory a mirror needs to be only half the height and width of a person, in order to see the whole of themselves in it. Do you have someone there who is 96" high and
72" wide? :)I can buy a framed mirror that I can see the whole of myself in, for about £20 here in NZ. I can't believe UK prices.
Have you never heard of over the fire place,the mantle piece is nice and chunky/wide and a mirror smaller than a mantle piece looks out of place, a couple of inches smaller is ok.
It's called VAT(Value Added Tax). :-( a two ounce pkt of tobacco in france or any othe european country outside the uk is about 2.25GBP(if that?) in the UK it's 10.50GBP...hows that for gov ripping us off.
