A bit of TLC is needed...
To get this little (18 foot) ugly duckling looking like a swan!

Our town.
Just a quick post, to show the town we now live in:
Today is one year since I left London (the First Mate left about a week before me) and I thought it might be a good time to show where we are...

Where they are.
The rooms, that is:
In these plans (drawn by the First Mate's architect uncle), pink and blue are the rooms in the previous post.
What is marked as kitchen is actually our existing bedroom, separated from living/dining by a passage (red) that travels in an inverted 'U' from bedroom 1 up and over kitchen, and down to double garage at the bottom right. It's a long way to walk around.
So, the next walls to come out are probably from kitchen through passage, to living/dining and some glass doors from the kitchen into the courtyard (green). After that, we'll be able to see from the courtyard right through the kitchen, living/dining areas and front terrace to the mountains beyond... :)
Double garage (as marked) is our present kitchen, and is large enough for two cars and a bike - way too big to be just a kitchen!!
More later, but for now we are going to be moving into the 'new' bedrooms in preparation for the dirty work in the new kitchen, to begin in a month or so.

Changing rooms.
Work continues on the bedroom wing of the house, with the ours and the little 'un's future bedroom now ready to re-carpet.
The colour came out just a tad bolder than we anticipated from the swatch card, but hey, it's much better than the sickly yellow the whole interior was when we moved in!
No prizes for guessing which is whose...
