Hi ๐ I'm Spadget, Rich and I are finally buying our dream house!๐I'll be documenting all of our house based adventures here, from moving day and beyond! ๐ก๐จโจ
@alanjgarden@analyticalhelen@Parody_PM That's great that you don't need to spend much. We were living in a very old house, all the windows at the front were single glazed and we had no wall insulation because the walls had no cavities, also tall ceilings. Still had to have heating on in June. We were paying ยฃ800 pcm
Here are some before pictures of the nursery. The first pic is from the sale photos and the rest are from today, the decorators have been mainly doing prep work.
Day 2, ceiling has had the first coat watered-down as it's going on to bare plaster. Coving has its first coat of @FarrowandBall #Wevet ๐ค๐ค and most of the fireplace is primed...
@SimChipped So sorry to see you're going through this. I've been through similar with work. I'd suggest a complete break from it for a couple of months, reset how you feel about it and come back to it later if you still want to. It's helping me with my work situation, hope it helps you too๐
Aaand here are some of the bits for the spare room so you can get a feel for that too. I'm keeping the bathroom quiet as it's soooo different to what I originally set out to have.
@LedaXI@heysha_diaz @DrRachaelF Exactly, same here. I went to a school with a "no bullying policy". Got bullied for 7 years straight (UK school), nothing done about it, I'm guessing because it's kind of normalised for teachers just like people dying is normal for doctors.
@CaityTrina@paszerine I totally agree with all these comments but the comment that person left on the gallery is so rude! I mean they could always, you know, build their own stuff ๐ฎ
Bathroom updates:
So far, all bathroom installation peeps are booked up until at least October. Got a builder coming round this morning who hopefully has availability, but why does he have availability?
Also totally not going for the original decor plan!
