I never can look at those stains around the mouth on light coloured dogs without shuddering although I'm mightily impressed by how high the owners can lift their bicycle not to mention two trombones with stands!

I imagine their neighbours might be glad they are thinking of moving out, perhaps to a detached property...

Just the right height to smack you in the head on the pedal as you walk past

By the looks of it, that carbon road bike could be considerably lighter than one of those trombones.   

We also have the larger version of that Ikea rug which they are standing on in our kitchen diner.

And here is a wonderful song allegedly about a trombonist which was mentioned in today's Guardian Thursday Quiz, the lyrics are a hoot! Big Long Slidin' Thing

Does "You're my lobster" refer to mating for life, or that one of them wants to boil the other alive then feast on their seared flesh?

Neither.  It refers to the fact that the room is fitted with an energy-efficient thermal door.

Sold last year. https://www.zoopla.co.uk/property/uprn/422000060016/ Quite a transformation.

This is another sort of fun, how long before we can spot any of these ideas in places for sale?

Quite a few seem to have a public toilet vibe to them. I don’t mind a bit of polished concrete but not sure about the concrete walls.

Whilst I've yet to see acres of concrete, bare brick walls do pop up from time to time. Giving an air of an unfinished project to my mind...
