    It is bigger than I would like really.
    Useful to have annexe potential with parents getting older though.

    The banquette is the hideous built in round the wall seating.

    You must mean 'vintage', not hideous? :rotfl:

    When I indulge my rightmove habit, I have to decide whether to look in my actual price range, or my dream price range! As we have no plans to move just yet it's all a bit of dreaming really :o

    Second house would be a good opportunity for us if planners would let us rebuild/massively extend it :D I would love the land and outbuildings :T

    Hi Alchemilla! Thought I'd pop round to yours, but I'm not sitting on that banquette, no way :D

    And I absolutely love that unf*** your habitat thing, its brilliant! Much more inclusive than decluttering :rotfl:

    Hope you're feeling a bit better today, sounds like your lurgy was appalling :(

    Hellooo!

    I'm not sure you could sit on it. Think one would slide off that vinyl!!

    More washing done and broken escutcheons replaced.

    Wood in and I think I have found a new place for the pew that is languishing in the toy graveyard.

    More power to your elbow Al. Glad to hear you've shaken off your bug. Have a wonderful HT... Make sure you find time for yourself in amongst all the DIY miracles you are achieving.
