Phase 2 complete!

Apologies for the lack of updates - moving, Christmas and some work deadlines (yes I do have those occasionally!) have put the website on the backburner.

Anyway, the news is that we have now moved into our new house! Phase 2 took place on the weekend of the 9th/10th November - bit of a nailbiting lead up though due to the mortgage company really dragging their feet to get us the correct paperwork through. Once again we rounded up some kind (foolish) souls to help us (thanks James and James), and a hire van with a tail lift and removed all our stuff from the wonderful barn-in-the-middle-of-nowhere and took it to the new house.

So far so good! We’ve just about unpacked - although as we have been unpacking I keep thinking to myself that was it really necessary to bring that box with all those things I never use and now that it’s gone straight in the loft, we could probably do without it! We’ve had a coal fire in the authentic 1920’s hearth (worked a treat) and the Christmas tree is up! I’ve put together some photos below. Click to enlarge them.

    Good to see that you have installed the Wife in the Kitchen where she belongs stacking, the Dishwasher.

    Also great to see that you have been so generous in buying a house with a dishwasher for her. I do hope she’s greatful….
