It comes with fixing brackets Gareth but I take your point, whether it is
ugly or not I guess depends on how visible/picturesque your house is, I
personally wouldnt hang it on the front of my 1930s part brick/part
tile/part white painted house but I wouldnt think twice about sticking it
on
the back. After seeing the disgusting patio doors some people have put into
replace the original panelled french doors they obviously have no taste
anyway ;)

let me know about the vent I am of to a barbi soon but will be back later
this evening.

Cheers
Mick
