First day blogging, just moved to new tatty house in tatty sea side town. House is over 100 years old, previous owners were sort of arty but not very practical...have weird grapes painted in living room and Teenage Mutant Turtle in dining room. Love it though, its our first real family home - first time buy was 2 bed flat that I never loved, and never knew why I did not fall for it. I've falled for this old house though, even with the damp, slugs, weird smells, and holes in walls.
