We are in!









We picked up the keys today about 11.30, just in time to meet the carpet guy who arrived at 12. The previous owners had dogs and although they did a great job of cleaning the carpets they need to be replaced, all of them! It felt great to finally get into the house and everybody who visited were really positive particularly about the size of the house which helps! We still have to pinch ourselves as seems incredible that we are now home owners so close to the beach in such a lovely area.

Alex was keen to show off the house again for the blog. They did such a good job of cleaning it, that it didn't look too bad but it does need a lot of TLC and paint. We are pleased to have our stools back next to a breakfast bar, its just so 'social' or so Alex tells us. Alex took off his pants for you all so you could see him do a practical demonstration of our laundry chute, although Oli did try to turn into a Oli chute later on. Alex still enjoys making fun of our double doors leading onto the roof in our room, can't see why?! We found a new room on our last visit but couldn't get inside as it was so full of rubbish. We were pleasantly surprised to find a work bench so I can do all my DIY work in there. We wont see much of that room then. The outside of the house is nicely paved with a side entrance for the bikes as demonstrated by Al.

The boys had a fantastic day of running around an empty house, lets hope its not empty for too long!
