I have also spent the rest of my time attached to my laptop everyday searching for this elusive home! So no luck on that front yet I can feel a Kirsty moment coming on where I can hear the words compromise, but it really is not in my vocabulary but I think it might have to be! But, I would like a sitting room like this ...
a dining room like this
a pretty bedroom
maybe a bathroom like this or maybe not
I love the beams and ceiling light in this one!
Lovely to dream
I can hear someone (the OH) saying and pigs might fly!!
Now for my give-away I can’t believe all the lovely comments I have had and I will be drawing someones name out of the hat on Sunday morning.
So 2 more days to go!
Happy 90th birthday to your father. I'm visiting from Brenda's Welcome Wagon. Beautiful photos of the water.
ReplyDeleteHappy 90th to your father - he looks well on it! Good luck with the house-hunting - try not to compromise! Abby x
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your Dad! We recently went to the New Forest - it's wonderful there. I'm hoping to go back about June / July time when there will be some lovely foals.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the house hunting!
June.

Yes, now that would be a wonderful home but you forgot pictures of the grounds too!! I've just been reading your previous posts and I, too, loved Edna O'Brien as a teenager - The Girl with the Green Eyes too. I shall have to look out for the book you mentioned too.
ReplyDeleteoops, I meant Brenda's blog. It's Friday, what can I say. Sorry Brenda!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Happy Birthday to him!

ReplyDeleteIs there room for another one in that dream house of yours. Oh my word what beauty!
Keep searching it will arrive - just waiting for you to find it.
Many happy returns to your father.
I have always wanted a big bathroom... dramatic coloured walls, dramatic plants, large fireplace, lots of big church candles and a huge sash window with uninterrupted views of sea or countryside. Or... one with a skylight so I can lay in the bath and stargaze. I can do that now, through a large sash window, but have to bend over to pull blinds down before getting out so the neighbours don't get a shock!
ReplyDeleteHi jill, wow, the images for your perfect home, truly are perfect!!! I would love a place like that too! My in laws live in the new forest! I am glad you enjoyed it down there, it is quite picturesque isnt it? Especially in the summertime when you can walk through the woods and enjoy the prettiness!
ReplyDeleteHave a really lovely weekend!

Hi Jill,
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Birthday for your dad, (love the pictures in the background).
I was thinking, what if you contacted Kirsty and Phil for real? Maybe they can help you find your new home, who knows? Would be funny to see you on tv, I can watch their show here too. Anyway, good weekend and good luck with the house hunt,
Maureen

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your Dad! A handsome looking gentleman. Is that an RAF tie? My lovely mother was 91 in January - she's such an elegant lady. How wonderful we still have them with us. I'm a bit off blogging just now but wanted to send best wishes to you and your father. Cx

Hello Jill,
ReplyDeletewhat a handsome man your Dad is, a belated happy birthday.
You should have popped in for a cup of tea and cake, you were not that far away.
You really shouldn’t have put pictures of my house on your blog! ;0)
