    WoW!! The pink!  What is it about houses for sale that all have an awful pink room?
    The bedroom look lovely now.  Nearly there.

    thanks I wasn’t sure you could see the pictures. Yes it was horrid that pink shinny too so when the cheap light fitting shone on it (crystals) it looked like fat splatters. This is the from before

    Looking good TG.  And the front door is such an improvement.  The planters give it a welcoming feel as well.  The new gate looks better than the old one - well chosen.  All the changes add kerb appeal.

    Hello Bugs.  Haven't seen you around for a long time.  Hope all is well with you.  You appear to have added an extra e to your name.  I have acquired a H.  Needs must.  Stay safe.

    Forum lockouts, gave up for months.

    All well here thank you. Retired last year, bought a narrowboat which has been great. That's my excitement🙂
