    They've laid that floor wrong. Needs turning 90° in a lot of rooms. We had to replace the floor in our old flat because they did that. Annoying as we had to put cheaper stuff down because that's what we could afford at the time.

    May you find your sister soon Helli.
    Sleep well.

    Very deceptive interior compared to the outside. I have no words for the horse in the front garden, other than to insist the sellers take it with them!

    Very odd layout to the house, even if some rooms are beautifully done up.
    Price last soled 2018 - £670k  :D

    It may have been a very different house in 2018.

    Perhaps, perhaps not but 67% increase for putting a horse sculpture in the front garden🫣

    I might be missing something, but how exactly does one get furniture up this staircase?

  • I just found out I’m colour blind. 

    The diagnosis came completely out of the orange.

    Interesting layout. The utility room is off the garage, which itself is off the bedroom.
