I know what you mean, this Yorkshire cottage we just went to was the height of luxury, one bedroom with an en suite, one living room/kitchen all in one, and one cupboard room with the freezer, hoover, ironing board etc AND AN EXTRA LOO in it!When we go on holiday now the one thing we miss is having two loos. #firstworldproblems

Now that really is posh, a loo in a cupboard! 😉I know what you mean, this Yorkshire cottage we just went to was the height of luxury, one bedroom with an en suite, one living room/kitchen all in one, and one cupboard room with the freezer, hoover, ironing board etc AND AN EXTRA LOO in it!

When I was 10 ( 1970) we were living away from our home city and my parents wanted to move back nearer family. We did a council house swap to a less salubrious part of the city and we didn’t have an inside loo. We had a bathroom with bath and basin but had to trail outside to relieve ourselves! Or horrors of horrors use the pot my mother placed in the bathroom! Bearing in mind we were a family of five ( I was the oldest child) it wasn’t ideal! Luckily we moved less than a year later.When I was very young our loo was down the garden. Mum wouldn't go one day till Dad came home and removed a toad that had moved in. We also had a tin bathtub! Some people moaning today don't really understand poverty. But they were happy times!
Luxury! We had to share the toilet toad with five families!When I was very young our loo was down the garden. Mum wouldn't go one day till Dad came home and removed a toad that had moved in.

Glad you are so tolerant but I can "tell a hawk from a handsaw" when the wind is right. House: access track diabolical, land overgrown, garden 4ft high brambles all over it. Drainage defective (rainwater) invisible (sewage). Much vaunted improvements are basically cosmetic since the new insulation is on the inside but nobody has pointed up the outside to prevent damp...Needs about £150k spending on it and would then resell for 20k less than the combined purchase and do up cost. I ain't moving!Morning folks. 6.7 and a unicorn! Yeah! @Snowwy see photo below.
Been a bit distracted since I got up, the garden is full of baby starlings, there’s loads, and they are very noisy and demanding! Still being fed by their poor parents. My feeders are decimated, especially the fat balls and I’m replenishing the bird baths all day, they love a splash about. We also have three of our nest boxes occupied, two by blue tits and one by house sparrows. House sparrows don’t appear to have chicks yet but the tits do. I some how don’t think I’m going to get much done today!
@TinaD yes, you’re mad, but we wouldn’t have you any other way.
@freesia big congratulations on your HS and almost unicorn.
@goodybags glad the op went well and you’re being well looked after. Hoping for a swift recovery for you so you can get back to the bungalow and carry on decorating!
Have a great folks, another nice one up here in the north.
