A Work in Progress

After a week of banking screw ups, we managed to take possession of our house on Friday. And got straight to work stripping the wall paper, which is in every room - yuck. Although it was kinda neat to uncover the paint colours other people were trying in the different rooms.

It is even on all the ceilings, who's dumb idea was that!

The yard is a huge mess and is going to take a lot of work to make it look good. It didn't look that bad when we viewed the house but I guess their lawn mower broke after they got an offer!

Hi Sarah
Just doing a little lurking and have been reading about your travels and adventures! Great stuff - glad to see you are able to take advantage of the location. Where is your house?
Cheers
Elspeth - in Delta

Yes, where is the house? SO British-looking. How many people get to walk through your backyard to get to theirs? We should talk, give us all the details!
Congrats!

The house is in Epsom - so we have moved further out. It is a longer commute for Doug but it is nice and green out there, our house is right across the road from the common, and Sarah is closer to work (lucky girl).
