Personal news

Post by legspin »

As and from 5.00pm yesterday my wife and I are the owners of a house (well, us and the bank anyway).
You have no idea how much of a sea change this is for us.
Now all we have to do is start reading the Daily Mail and we will be fully converted to the cult :D

Congrats...nothing like owning your own place. The feeling you get by sitting there and thinking 'I could knock down that wall if I wanted to....' is fantastic!

Slugs! HE created slugs! They can't hear. They can't speak. They can't operate machinery. Are we not in the hands of a lunatic?

hey congratsz!!! yeah and its a huge headache too esp if its a bit old and has lots of sprucing up to do.

i just bought an apartment that was built in the 70s and ... its quite evident in the dull green, salty looking lil mosaic tiles. I've just given them a good scrubbing... phew. And the result isn't far from how it looked in the beginning hahahaaa.

I've brought the wall down (for a hefty S$520) to give the living and kitchen a lofty look... making a lil breky counter in place of the wall.. and could always double up as a dj console hmmmmmmm
Quack! Dip, sip & Go!! Or, just do the kitty shake.

As Sam Gamgee said "Well, I'm back"

That was actually a lot less painful than originally invisaged

Hopefully photos to follow soon :D
