The end of a long story


We have a bit of a history with stair carpets, but after nearly 19 years of marriage we finally have a new one.  If you ask Calvin or me what we remember about viewing this house before we bought it, it would be the feeling we got on this landing.  The sun was pouring in through the windows and we just knew this would be our home.  The house has undergone many changes since then, not least the extension which nearly doubled it's size. But the last thing left to do was replace the stair carpet which, since the build in 2007, stopped halfway up, changed to lino and then re-started again past the new doorway.  We must have just got used to it that way but it probably looked very odd to guests!

Oh, there is just one thing left.........we need 3 new doors for the children's bedrooms
(we have the handles and hinges, we bought them in 2007)

 Maybe that will be a summer project Dad????
