Jesus - that's incredible budgeting. Our works have taken so long and cost so much more than we planned that we've pretty much given up.
EDIT: Not in a "We're so rich, we don't care" humblebragging way. In a "Christ, I don't care anymore, suck any pleasure/enthusiasm/will to live out through my wallet. I just want builders out of my home so I can go back, spend 2 weeks cleaning/clearing and then collapse when I realise I am only being held tightly in place by the stress of it all" way.
The laminated beech doesn't work out much cheaper than the alternatives (granite/marble/corian/etc) but it seems there's no perfect material, and laminated ply seems like the least old fashioned.

Cheers for that! Will check them out.
I just much prefer the look over wood. I had a hideous kitchen when I moved in and not much money so did it on the cheap. Don't think the whole thing cost more than £600 or maybe £800 including fitting. It's the smallest kitchen in the world mind.
