New House!

Tuesday 20th February, I become co-owner of a whole house! Very excited, but also quite nervous about being responsible for looking after something so old, and rubbing the Grade II listing people up the wrong way.

Picked up the keys in the afternoon and stepped foot inside as owner for the first time in the evening. Was a really cool feeling. Being me all the time since we made the offer I've been expecting the worst - sale to fall through, roof to fall off etc. and now it's actually happened!

Hoping to move in on Sat/Sun, and first use of the wood-fired stove should be Tuesday after the chimney sweep has been (selfishly, I want a really cold spell of weather so the fire can do its thing).

More to follow when I we actually move in!
