Have almost finished this three bed semi in a suburb of South Manchester.

Going landlord Louboutin loopy!
I am going seriously wrong somewhere. My lovely tenant in our gorgeous monochrome apartment is all excited about the photo shoot next week for 25 Beautiful Homes and I called to her place last night to measure for a loft hatch to make access easier into the mezzanine storage area.

6.45am they bloody rang! What sort of a time is that to deliver a range oven, how uncivilised can you get?! The friend who's bought the lovely Rose Cottage round the corner from my house has only gone and won herself a top of the range Belling Range oven in a competition run by Period... Continue Reading →
