My favourite room in our house is the lounge/dining room. These are it's four corners...



This is the mirror I painted last week...

Today we finished off the last room in the house (6 months after moving!) and cleared out a load of junk from the study. Ben made use of it to do a job application today...


And this is the current fridge message, it's from a poem by Yeats but we keep running out of letters...

Our new home 2

Our new flat is starting to feel more like home, especially with the arrival of some very patiently and eagerly awaited furniture. Our first grown up furniture (ie not flat pack from Argos) was mulled over for a long time and we finally took the plunge a couple of weeks ago and bought our first proper dining table. Ben has been busy fixing mirrors and curtain bits to walls and I painted a mosaic mirror last night.


I'm still discovering new parts of Diss, especially as the weather is starting to brighten up at the weekends and I can go out running. There are a few quaint courtyards with delightful shops - if you've ever driven through Diss you might have only seen the horrid main road lined with supermarkets and heard the rumble of the (supposedly) regular London to Norwich trains, but it has many hidden delights and is a lovely place to live.

Pictures to follow later once I've cleaned the house!
