But why have I not had time to update my blog? Here are some clues - a trip to Ikea? |
Our van full of things ... including rhubarb?? |
But it has been hard work getting it ready for us to use. While Karen started on the cleaning, setting up furniture, tidying the garden etc ... |
I had to start the new bungalow bird list! |
Thomas' room looks cheerful but homely. |
Even before starting any work, the bungalow already had some important features for us, including no carpets and a wet-room with a shower. But another wonderful bonus is this lovely conservatory. |
And the garden even has this perfect ramp up onto the lawn! |
I made a little nursery bed just to 'heel-in' a few plants we've saved for it. |
One of the things that drew us to the bungalow was the beautiful view from the front. |
It is also near to one of our all-time favourite birding locations. |
It has an accessible board walk... |
And amazing wildlife!! |
Of course I couldn't resist finding a few moths there and was delighted with this Puss Moth... |
Chocolate-tip... |
shoulder-stripe... |
Swallow Prominent... |
and even a lovely Streamer on the front door! As well as somewhere we can visit for regular weekends away, holidays etc. maybe when Thomas has finished at university he could make it his home? |
