I absolutely love it! :thumbsup:

After a year of searching for the right house, we definitely found it! I just can't wait to move in now - Actually ... I can't wait to see the kitchen come together! And the floor laid!

Once we've done the kitchen, we'll have a break for a bit, I think! ;)

We'll give ourselves chance to move in and just live and enjoy it! Nothing else is as offensive or desperate as the kitchen was! :D

Yeah, I can imagine it's really difficult for you over there! ;)

to be honest, this house is more than we were really looking at spending, but we got to the point that we'd run out of houses to look at, lol - Came to the conclusion that we would have to get some more moneys together to get what we really wanted!

Looking good you two :D

I looooooooove the fridge! Knowing us it'd be half empty most of the time but still, so purdy :thumbsup:

The flooring looks lovely, I was going through brochures of flooring a couple of weeks ago, yum ;)


Yeah...we've already upped our budget and it's still not enough for where we're living at the moment. Going to have to compromise and move out of London probably :wub: sad times

Hanna and I are in Manchester at the moment. I am sitting in a global sales meeting and hanna is "working from home" in the hotel. While I was bored, i had a look at house prices in Manchester. I really dont wont live up here but I was amazed at what sort of house we could get for the money up here! Why o why does london suck so much?!!!

doh boss keeps talking to me

Depends what you want though - K and I quite like the slow pace of life, lol - We're not hustle and bustle people, really! Hehe!! :P

Sounds like an interesting global sales meeting, lol, considering you're on TMF!! ;)

Kitchen design looks good, hurry up with those units, next time go for ready built ones, much easier.

Not necessarily alot cheaper, tradewise we use a custom german company that builds your kitchen for you at a much higher quality, which are simularly priced to say crown. Not going to go into depth with kitchens etc as im sick of them (Dad works for a kitchen place). However it looks awesome from the model, and the units look good so thats all that matters.
