Finding myself a cellar dweller again today, a bit useless and sick of being told not to anything heavy; headed down to the depths to find some limestone coloured sealant for the newly done tenants shower room. And success, found a nearly full tube, but hardly surprising as the cellar is better stocked than my... Continue Reading →
And we’re off! 25 Beautiful Homes photoshoot begins
Bridget the photographer was here at 8am and ready to go, with a car full of pink flowers and a list of do nots from the magazine - no lights on, no scratty bath mats, no weird angles, no shooting into corners!

As a typical Saggi I have to admit to having regular and spectacular emotional eruptions 🙂 The back and dead legs finally saw... Continue Reading →
Menthol in the face – not a good idea….
What a day. Tiles needed for Pjt Deano, of course, as ever, didn't have enough so a run up the M60 required as only B&Q Trafford had the right batch number. The hall and kitchen are looking FAB, and the tiles are only the polished porcelain cheapies from B&Q, £10 per m2, they go really well...
