Did a bit of tidying in the garden over the weekend, so it's looking good:

It's all we hoped for, we had a 2 bed mid terrace down South and a gigantic five bed house up here for less money, makes no sense. My wife got a well paid job in Cambridge, I got made redundant down south and at the moment i don't need to work. Life is pretty good and a lot quieter up here.
Here's my "before" - garden as it was when I bought the house
And now ( well, a few months ago )
And indoors was even worse! Kitchen consisted of just hot and cold pipes, nothing else ( no cupboards, tiles or anything!), threadbare carpet in every room, heavy embossed wallpaper everywhere, that had had several coats of emulsion in hideous colours over the top ( but many years ago- it hadn't been decorated in over 15 years ) Owned not by an old granny, but a couple in their 30's!
