I wrote this and took the photos a week or so ago, but couldn’t find my camera lead to download anything… Pleased to report that *some* progress has since taken place!
I’ve been a little quiet this week, because last Saturday we moved home.
After three months away, we’re finally back in our pad.*
It was a week earlier than planned, as my Mum’s house – where we were staying — was clogged up from the flooding and the drain situation was getting a little unpleasant. So, everything wasn’t exactly finished when we got back here.
There’s still quite a lot of this…



But also lots of lovely renovations already completed, like this…





So, there’s still a way to go, but we’re in, we’re heated and we can wash. What more do you need than that?!
I’ll show you some proper photos of completed rooms when (or if) they get finished…
*A fact that always reminds me of the amazing Robert Lowell poem, Home after three months away. Check it out if you like a bit of modern poetry.
** If you like these tiles, I’m selling our spares on eBay right now!
