Day 3 of no social media: I fell in love with a £2500 sink
I am in love. The colour. The shape. The brand. But we can’t afford it for a downstairs toilet sink. Even though it’s a work of art. Somethings are just not meant to be. I definitely think I was more focused at work, I achieved a lot today and feel on top of my work…

Day 2 of no social media: bathroom tiles prep
It’s day 2 of social media and it’s been fine, I feel okay. I am still reaching for my phone too much and I keep posting things in my head, which is insane. But it’s good. My evening consisted of laying the floor tiles for the bathroom and realising that I need another panel of…

Moment in time
Last holiday I got dual nationality with a Seychelles passport. This time, they have changed the laws so now I can have residency as well. I am so appreciative that I am now a proper Seychellois, just need to learn the language and that will be another tick of my list. I know and appreciate…

Bathroom update…
We started having our bathroom ripped out. It didn’t take long to destroy and now it’s time to redesign a new bathroom. We have Pat who is doing the majority of the work and getting in professionals for the tricky bits but I thought you may like an update. It’s messy, and gross we enjoyed…

It’s true, I can’t wait to be sinking my toes into a beautiful Mauritian beach but honestly I am so happy to when I am home. We recently put in a log burner and we love it. Wood has been expensive however it’s been a mild winter so far, so we haven’t had it on…
