Where I live
I was going to post this pic to illustrate why I don't get any trick or treaters, but it didn't seem appropriate somehow.
So am posting here in the hope that if I show mine, you'll show yours! My flat is on the ground floor of this building - the windows you see are my front room. |

Decorated for last Xmas. My only asset in life is mortgaged right up to the limit. |

Here's my pad - shows what happens if you reach 'old fart' age and status and have been lucky to move at the right time in the UK housing market. It all started with a small two bedroom job needing loads of work in a not so popular part of a town called Epsom.
We've moved a total of 5 times (so far - well, who knows...) in our 30+ years of marriage. This came up at the wrong time from a family size point of view (we still had our two boys living at home as teenagers and we only had two bedrooms in this place), but the right time price-wise. We managed to get an extra bedroom added in time to prevent the domestic equivalent of World War 3. The house is the gate house to a park and was originally just the square bit with the funny chimney stack sat in the middle of it. It dates back from mid 1800's and has been extended a number of times since the 1950's. There is a wierd-looking main house in the park itself, that has been divided into five separate houses. I'll post a picture of it later. The main house claim to fame is that it was used by Joe Kennedy when he was here as US Ambassador during WW2 - like to think that JFK may have run around my garden when he was a boy....

*Awesome* digs, CF. The sunroom/greenhouse is tres groovy. Must be rather pastoral where you are.
I'll post a picture of my wholly unremarkable suburban early-60's ranch hovel sometime soon. Looks a lot better now that the toilet and dead monitor and lawnmower are out of the driveway.

CF - I love your house!!
We just rebuilt ours over the last two years, because our original house burned down in 2003. We used the same foundation, so we went from a one story rectangle box to a two story rectangle box. The character of the place is all on the inside, as the outside is a bit boring. |

I agree with the rest CF, wonderful place! Looks like it has a lot of character.
This is the part of our house that I like the best : |
