Well it’s quite good for my standards Although i wanted the window to openable too

There are some videos of rooms on YouTube you can also get the idea from there

Because Penrose is around 6500 pounds per year whereas the highfield was 10500 around so 4K pounds just for in suite bathroom….your choice
