            I like the mirror fencing Trunky, there's only one drawback I can think of......an awful lot of years with bad luck if you break it! :heehee:

              Would probably do that to my eyes too in bright sun.

              Really striking effect ... but it does distort the view from behind it though.

              Mmmm. Don't think I'd fancy the job of cutting the grass next to that fence. :oops:

              Which does pose the question of how birds would be affected. Any kind of large mirror outside can be quite lethal to birds, as they don't always recognise it as a solid object and will sometimes attempt to fly through it.
