When you walk in your front door, which room do you enter? Oh yes. It's lovely and I am currently training The Boy aka my favourite kitchen slave to fill and empty it. To be fair it might take a while before he is fully trained. Is your living room carpeted or does it have hardwood floors? Depends, there's a fairly blunt set in a knife block, the sharpest ones I use the most and some paring knives are in the drawer. House, apartment, duplex or trailer? How many bedrooms is it? Gas stove or electric? Do you have a yard? What size TV is in the living room? Are your plates in the same cupboard as your cups? Is there a coffee maker sitting on your kitchen counter? What room is your computer in? Are there pictures hanging in your living room? Are there any themes found in your home? What kind of laundry detergent do you use? Do you use dryer sheets? Curtains in your home? What color is your fridge? Is your house clean? What room is the most neglected? Are the dishes in your sink/dishwasher clean or dirty? How long have you lived in your home? Where did you live before? Do you have one of those fluffy toilet lid covers on your toilet? Let's imagine fore a few seconds that I was the sort of person who likes fluffy toilet lid covers (I know it requires a rather fertile imagination but it's only for a few seconds so have a go)... right now remember who else lives in this household... yep 10 year old little boy. Little boy + things that can't be wiped clean within target range in a toilet = insanity (or a higher tolerance to the smell of stale urine than I mine at the very least). Do you have a scale anywhere in your house? Same answer as last time: Nope, I bake by volume rather than weight. How many mirrors are in your house? 1 in each of the bedrooms in the shape of fitted cupboard sliding doors. Look up. What do you see? Do you have a garage?
Click you heels Dorothy, the return
A little entrance hall which leads every room in the flat. It's a just a corridor with loads of doors really.
Wood laminate. Light oak.
It's a flat.
2.
Electric.
Nope but I have a balcony big enough to make a snow man, albeit a tiny snow man.
It's huge. It's a recent e-bay acquisition (because everybody is upgrading to new LCD type screens there are loads of CRTs available for cheap) and turned out to be 2 inches bigger than advertised by the time we went to collect it. The 20" is sitting on the floor next to it awaiting to find a new home.
Everyday crockery is all in the same cupboard, the nice stuff is in the cupboard in the living room.
Yes, it moved in at the same time as MFC. My tipple is still tea though I do like the smell of coffee in the kitchen.
The office area is set up in one corner of the living room. It is soon to be partitioned off with the help of a paper screen (if I understood the delivery advice correctly, my German was never that hot and it isn't improving wiht lack of use).
Not yet. There is a frame with a picture of The Boy on one of the window ledges but that it fr now. I am planning to pick and frame a picture and pick a new one and change it on a regular basis, once I've found a frame I like.
Not really aside from way to much birch and "not quite unpacked yet".
I can't way for my cheapo Aldi tablet to be finished so I can switch back to Persil.
Nope.
Yes, yellow ones in the living room, with tab tops and little ceramic leaf shape buttons on each tab (I have had them for ages but there were no suitable rooms for them in the previous flat); cream and denim black-out lined ones in the master bedroom and cream ones in The Boy's bedroom.
The same as the rest of the kitchen units. The magnets are in a box. No point unpacking them since the fridge door doesn't stick.
Sort of. MFC is a tidy sort of a person so it is better than if I were left to my own devices but definitely not up to his standards.
The entrance hall. It's full of empty cardboard boxes at a the moment which a colleague at work puts aside for me. The pile is growing weekly.
Dirty - why would I put clean dished in the sink?
Just over a month, MFC was a much more recent addition.
Surrey, oh boy does it feel good to be back in London.
Same answer as last time:
1 in the bathroom - a little round shaving mirror on a stand.
A couple of CD shelves. One is empty for now but will probably be the home to random cables and office paraphernalia, the other is the room of maps, dictionaries and computer reference books.
No, we have been promised a bike shed at some point though we are not holding our breaths.
