Once I'd consumed a (still somewhat necessary) fried brekkie, I thought I'd get creative with the camera and show you our new house. From the outside, it's very much (in the words of my brilliant friend Paula) 'the house you drew as a kid - a big square front with a door and 4 windows'. But with more charisma, we think.
The outside piccies are from when we had snow (it's all gone now), but the inside ones show you what our place is like now that our donated furniture has arrived, courtesy of Andy and Christine from over the road, who are moving in together and were getting rid of some of their surplus. That New Inn is better than Freecycle, I tell ya. I have to say I've never had quite such a grownup house before, and I reckon I kinda like it. Before you go shaking your head at how domestic I've become, however, I need to point out that most of our finishing touches - the rugs on the sofas, the mirror over the fireplace, hallstand beside the front door, and the giant toaster in the kitchen - are in fact the brainchild of my lovely husband. Who knew he'd turn out to be such a domestic godliness? (Let's see how long it lasts!)
