Could be big picture, like a life goal. Could be what you want right this moment. What do you yearn for?

    Sounds not too far off the house we got tbh. Though no obvious signs of smoking, just a musty damp smell. Replacing the 4 layers of wallpaper was fun and then plastering the patches where the plaster just about fell off the wall.

      Well, I’m glad you managed to find a place, and that you’ve got the necessary wits about you to make it a nice home :-)

        Necessary wits being hey let’s remove the peeling wallpaper and paint this room!

        Followed by - oh shit why are bits of wall coming off with it. Why is the bare block behind visible. YouTube, how do I plaster a wall?

          Indeed. I once dated a girl who left dead flies on the windowsills as a deterrent to the other flies, but didn’t think to clean out the moody fruit in her kitchen.

          She’d been in foster care from the age of 12, and had zero preparation for life.
