On this day 18 years ago we first saw our house.
Writing about it soon after, we mentioned that one of the things that appealed to us was the fact it didn't appear to need too much work we couldn't do ourselves.
Our first photo of the house
So much for facts! (or is that "so much for appearances"?). After 18 years we now have a house we can comfortably live in, in a state where we don't have to apologise for the grime, grot, dust, and ramshackled-ness of it all - but phew. Of course, there is still more to be done: we haven't quite recovered our "spare room" after filling it up with stuff from other rooms, the entry hall (which we never use) is so full of overflow that you enter at you own risk, and I'm struggling with getting curtains up in a very restricted space.
But we're getting there.
