    Next time, Cath.

    Building plot is interesting but not a WOW. Actually a barn conversion but of a modern barn that I don't think the planners would be too precious about.

    Pizza express with clubcard tokens. Bought another loo seat that will actually fit and used M and S vouchers for nice room scent and handwash.
  • Wow..house looks fab. Love the stove Al :D

    Hi Squirrel I should think so. It looks a bargain by our standards too.

    So last day of half term and it has just evaporated.

    Things still to do
    garden fence
    sorting cupboards
    paint touch ups
    tidy garage and greenhouse
    paint beam thingy
    cracks to fill.


    hmmmnnn. I guess we have achieved a lot.

    Not really. The two that galvanised us into action have sold.

    There is a place that is too perfect but also sold I think.

    I have been eyeing up a barn conversion which would be good if we could negotiate more land.

    There is a farm which is too expensive...
