I really hope I haven't missed it, it just looks fab and I want to read all the alternative facts about you. I just love that amazing shot taken in the dining room which manages to get you in the sitting room, the dining room and the stairs in it. Genius. Stoneycroft is gorgeous and I just love to hear the tale of how you got there. Have you got any photos of your other houses? They would make some great blog posts.

To live in a Home as Historic as yours makes my 100 year old Wild, Wild West abode seem like a mere babe... but I suppose 250 years or so ago around here there was only Nomadic Tribal living, which my Dad's Ancestors probably did. *winks* In fact I lived a Nomadic lifestyle until we bought this place 15 years ago so just to put down roots and have a home without wheels was a Big Deal! I so enjoyed seeing the coverage and smiled at the... ahem, Artistic Liberties the Magazine took with modifying the story. *smiles* Happy Spring from the Arizona Desert... Dawn...

At least they got your names properly assigned and hopefully Kinky Melon got a mention.<br /><br />Can't read the text on my computer screen, only the cutlines and pull-out's. However, the price of the issue appears in large red type, Vix, reminding your faithful fans you've bought furniture for less! (Ikea, indeed!)

I remember moving into a bedsit where I could've reached the kitchen sink & cooker from the bed. It came complete with a mouse and a bathroom on the landing where you put 50p in the meter for hot water. <br />I do think many people are unrealistic about homes now. Thinking they can 'get on the property ladder' with a nice, neat 2 bed semi while they're in their twenties. A good home takes time to put together, and I think you appreciate it even more if you've gone through the roughing-it stage.valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17779608672109805929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-31443481113242496422015-03-14T04:06:35.278+00:002015-03-14T04:06:35.278+00:00How wonderful for you and Jon.
