    Thank you everyone for your kind words; I have to admit, I wrote the poem in 15 mins after returning from the pub feeling merry. I'm not that creative so the drink must have helped.

    I will post pictures; I was contacted but the Telegraph on Thurs and Wickes on Friday explaining the process.

    I have 20K to spend on kitchen, appliances, tiling etc. I moved into an old cottage a year ago that was owned by on old lady- I have a list of jobs as long as my arm and funds had run out so it will be quite a transformation.

    Will keep you all posted!
