I don't suppose anyone saw that documentary a few years back where Gene Simmons of the rock band Kiss was teaching kids in Great Yarmouth to play rock? He described the place as "God's waiting room." It also looks as if the property will not be there a couple of years from now... One good Spring tide and bye-bye; no thanks.

It was in Lowestoft at my old school. One of the kids, little Chris, later died due to drugs

I don't suppose the sand bags by the front door in Street View are significant.

Once again I am reminded of how different we all are. Setting aside matters of decorative taste, I simply cannot comprend how one could live amongst so. much. stuff.

Am I the only one who just thinks about how long it must take to dust that lot?

Nope, I thought exactly the same thing whilst trying to work out the demographics of who lived there.

Demographics of who is living there - yep...confusing. There is a cot on the one hand but adapted loo on the other hand.

Mind you - I feel like I'm needing to look at it with sunglasses on - I guess the colour of the outside of the house was the cue. I'd feel like I needed to paint everything white first - just to see what I'd actually got/what the house was like underneath all that.

It also has 2 caravans (one visible in Pic 3) and 7 (yes, seven!) sheds and a "chicken area". No floor plan or room dimensions.

No, not at all Dave. Easily explained by there being a young child's cot in one of the bedrooms. When the child is a little bit older the bags will be emptied into the child's sand pit.


The owners lead an active life as indicated by the surf board. Unfortunately, one of them fell off, resulting in a bad back, hence the need for the raised loo seat and bars.
