You're welcome.
Africandaisy, if you really have your heart set on bamboo, go for the strand woven, but if you're putting it down over a concrete slab, make sure it's really really dry. Put a double moisture barrier down. And make sure when you go to the shop you ask them what the moisture content is. Make sure they give you instructions with it. A floating bamboo floor would be a safer bet.
Sorry I was incorrect in saying moisture test bamboo, you can't test it with a moisture meter, it needs to be oven tested to be 100% sure. That's why the shop needs to supply the moisture content to you.
