New Beginnings

I am starting this blog to document our lives and work on our new house. We are first time buyers, and this is really our dream come true, but lets see how long that lasts!

We have a lot of plans for this house and unfortunately we haven't got off to a great start with the previous owner essentially being a &£@* (insert your own 4 letter word). But now that we have spent 2 days clearing his rubbish out of the house and garden we are ready to get started!

There is quite a bit to do and we really want to do as much as possible of the getting contractors in before our rental contract expires and we need to move all of our stuff!

I am afraid the next couple of posts are likely just to be full of pictures, acting as a 'before', but I will endeavour to post any small projects that we do in the meantime - there are a few pieces of furniture that I want to revive.

I hope you will enjoy reading about successes (and I am sure failures) along the way!


Amazing sky on the day that we completed - the photos of the actual house need to come with a bit of a warning as it was pretty gross!
