Re: my house and yours?

Just me and my wife. Something to rattle around in. No seriously it is something we can leave to our children as a bit of inheritance. Also no problems when the family come to visit for a few days.
I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it on right move. The garage can take a camper van or caravan hence the height

It looks very nice Bazza too big for me though, I want less to keep clean and in order as I grow older .

As for children coming to stay, I am looking forward to it being the other way around and my staying with them and making use of their power and food for a change
