Well, there's no going back now. The West Wing is most definitely kaput and I'm feeling elated about it, in a weird & slightly hysterical manner. I keep looking at it and laughing, not *quite* believing it's almost all gone. First the beautiful roof slates came carefully off, stacked ready to be re-used in the... Continue Reading →

No prize, but a definite blog mention & a big smackeroony should we ever meet 🙂 I've got my own ideas,... Continue Reading →
We don't *do* guest blogs here at Moregeous as a rule, but today's an exception!
