just finished a dashing job, hand cut all the quoins and ornate banding around the windows, dashed with golden pea on a cream dash reciever looked the biz! also the quoin s and bands all in the cream reciever, the owner has now painted the the quoins and banding brick red! :( gutted
 
that's a crime against humanity >:( no offence though bud but all that seems to happen in Swansea is that bloody golden dash with quoins on quoins. there's a mid terrace council house round here that's like a quoin extravaganza!! and yes it has them on all windows and doors, up both sides joining next door, both sides of the porch and little windows and even on the front garden wall!! makes me chuckle everytime i see it.
 
yeah south wales is dash city central mate, you only notice it when you go away and come back and think f**k**g hell look at all this tasty dash everywhere. one day my acrylic facade transformation business will make a killing :)

we havent spoken since i set him a task and that was, there are two types of cyma rectas what are they and whats the difference? pity i used to enjoy talking about how rich he was.
 
yeah what we call dashing is what you guys may call pebble dashing or dry dash!! the quoins are easy to do use batten and sum 5 inch skirting i got a jig for cutting out the v joints( look on e bay quoin cutter) sum people do go overboard here in wales though ;D but still looks impresive :o
 
some people got no taste!!

haveing pebble dash on your house is a perfect example of no taste, its just ugly.

Its the equivalent of having your hair dyed ginger.
