The House Renovators

The Return of the Mac

It has been ages since I have posted, sorry for that. Let me give you an update on what has been happening at 2 the Terrace. (is it bad that I giggle inside whenever I say my address? - No 2! hehe) We have bought the log burner, it wasn't cheap but it makes the room look awesome and will hopefully allow us to not need the heating on!, its a result that we are friends with a local tree surgeon so we can have all the logs we need also the previous owner left us with a ton of coal in the back garden in this enourmous coal chest! RESULT!!!!

The curtains and blinds are ordered and e are awaiting delivery of them next tue, we had a result on the blinds- 50% off at hillarys.co.uk and as for the curtains... lets just say they were not on sale!!! they should help keep the room nice and cosy as the sash windowws have a habbit of allowing the draft in/heat out!

We have cut a new doorway under the stairs for our fridge freezer to slot into, it was starting to get really annoying having to buy milk daily. all that is left to do there is put the door surround into the hole and hang the new door to conceal the fridge. We are going to partition off inside the cupboard also so the origional door will be for storage and the new door will be completely isolated and just for the fridge freezer- this is so we can have shelves on three sides of the cupboard and maximise storage- does that make sense???!

We have been hard at work in the garden aswell- its a monster- I am really looking forward to bbq season as we will be able to hold some seriously cool parties! haha. If you don't keep on top of it, it turns into the wilderness it was when we first bought the place- I feel a ride on mower is needed! nothing too big 16valves and a turboshould do it- we are in essex! ha

I'l post some photo's soon- I hate all this writing- pics are much more interesting to look at!
