Finally, After 6 months!!!

Petetourer · 11th November 2014, 22:58

Well, as some of you will probably know, I am in the middle of a house move....

Yesterday (6 Months after having our offer accepted

) We finally got the keys to our new house...

The waiting is not over yet though, as the place (Although quite new) requires a complete re do...

Probably will not be in till after Xmas now, but started by ripping out all the flooring in an attempt to rid the house of the smell of dog pee!!!

Anyway, some pics... Will get some more posted when finished and then it will be off to the South West for me!!

The bubbling you can see on the flooring is where the dog pee has soaked in...

Opening the fridge door also invoked this reaction

Even though it was empty

So that will be in the bin with the rest of the kitchen

Final pic is of all the flooring, ready to go up the tip

Good luck with it all mate, hope all done quickly for you so can be in by Xmas.

It makes you wonder about some people, the house looks to have a garden so you would think they would open the door for the poor dog to go into the garden

Look forward to meeting you in the sunny south west

'Tis a lovely looking house and I'm sure you will get it to your liking very soon

May I say the car in the drive sets it off a treat

Kept it simple and drove straight in.

The house will look great when done

It's a bit of a mixture mate. I am stripping everything out and decorating. Then I am getting people in to fit the new kitchen, bathroom, en suite, cloakroom and finally the flooring.
