This small bathroom wasn't ticking all the boxes for its owners, who wanted a more stylish feel, less shell-like curves, more storage and if at all possible a separate shower due to both environmental concerns and issues with chronic pain - a subject I know a lot about!

Never having had chance to visit Grand Designs Live in Birmingham, I was very excited to find out that our TV meetings (hoping these new ventures take off!) coincided with the 9 day property extravaganza which is Kevin McCloud's Grand Designs Live London at ExCel.

Yet another kitchen ordered, picked, hoisted onto trolleys (Mr Moregeous's job), lugged through the tills, then dragged over to DHL (with their extortionate delivery prices). Oh, I yearn for the good old days when you didn't have... Continue Reading →
Property – Bathing Project Squeeze in gold – what credit crunch?!
The media madness of my election video has subsided and it's back to reality, no more exciting TV interviews so I've had to make my own excitement at Barton Square picking lights and wallpaper for Project Squeeze.
