    I took delivery of a huge package yesterday (well two huge packages) which turned out to be Arthur’s new wardrobe. It could have been more messy actually, as when I got the note that I missed a package, I phoned up to ask them to redelivered the package to my workplace, thinking it must have [...]

    I might have posted before that we’re getting some work done at our other house in Viola by Birchwood Building and Construction. Work has been going on for some time now, but Phase 1 is over and work has started on the main house. There’s lots to be done, renewing electrics and gas works amongst [...]

    I was chatting with Camille last night while in the bathroom and it looks like we’re going to have to decorate it soon. It’s starting to look a bit tatty and we weren’t quite sure about the green colour since we moved in. There’s a choice to make though. We can either redo the whole [...]

    I may have posted before about the work we’re doing in Staines. Camille is doing a brilliant job of managing the work and today showed me a photo of how one of the rooms is turning out. It’s amazing how quickly things can change. This room was full of junk the last time I was [...]

    Camille is currently working on some interior design for our house in Staines and she’s been asking me questions as to what I like and don’t. It’s funny how you sort of take these things for granted. Whever we’ve bought property in the past, the light fixtures were already in place and you either like [...]

    Camille is spending some time at our house in Staines as we have some construction work going on at the moment. What we are doing at the moment is using the space in the garden (which was a pool till now), to actually convert in to some office/living space. It’s not quite an apartment, but [...]

    Don’ you hate it when you have the heating on, but part of the house just doesn’t lose it’s chill? It must be a central heating thing, but sometimes the radiator coverage isn’t idea in some houses. Back in Malta we never had central heating. When I was a kid, my mum used to use [...]

    I came across an interesting article on how you can save money on property insurance on Property Today’s website. It talks about how insurance companies basically measure risk against property and and how you can reduce the cost of your insurance by taking a few simple measures. Get some decent locks, alarms etc and you [...]

    There’s quite a bit of debate in the UK at the moment about garbage, recycling and refuse collection. A number of councils have started collecting refuse once a fortnight and enforcing recyling. While I’m all for recycling, I think that collecting rubbish every two weeks can be a problem for quite a few people. What [...]

    It’s time to look at some soft furnishings for our house and one thing we need to decide on is blinds. I found some interesting ones here at Terrys Fabrics. I’m not quite sure if we’ll go for vertical blinds yet, but they seem to be a nice option. When I was a kid we [...]
