I'll be using the Middle East buildings for the bulk of my Mogadishu setting but I wanted some more 'bush' looking ones too for that authentic African feel...

Awwwrhh! I think it looks great, but I'm so jealous that you have a supplier of cork!

I tried contacting the company you mention (siesta) but they have never gotten back to me,.. perhaps sending cork from England to Denmark is too far fetched for them.

Apparently noone has cork in this ruddy place!

For cork you could try the IKEA. They sell thick sheets of cork to put your hot pans on, but you can cut them up just as easily. Maybe the missus wouldn't like it when she's standing with a hot pan of food in her hands and she has no place to put it.

Yeah.. but that would be a very expensive solution I think. And a lot of waste as the sheets they sell are circle round.  ;) :)

That would be extremely welcome. I've tried to contact several danish cork distributors, but either they don't sell to privat persons or they don't sell "natural" finish!

Now on with the thread and sorry for hi-jacking! lol
