No. The old owners had carpet fitted over the top of the parquet flooring. So there was underlay and then carpet on top. And the fitters had even nailed the carpet gripper rods right into the...

Wow, forgot about this thread. I will have to make a follow up thread soon showing the house and garden with before and after photos.
Still actually working on the house. Lots has happened...
In Tom's room I'm just papering one wall with Laura Ashley pirate paper, with the other walls painted white.
Hallway we might paint if the walls look ok once stripped. My game/study room is...
No cable here, and I would not touch Virgin with a barge pole.
I will find out this week on Thursday what is happening. Strange that the previous owners had infinity here but now the line...
Just 2 walls of Tom's room thankfully. Rest of the house is papered, but a lot of it is pealing already and just pulling a piece in the hall and the whole sheet came off, so most should be easy. ...
Doing the hardest wallpaper in house first. Woodchip! Actually not too bad as my dad's been helping me and he has some wallpaper stripper that works quite well. We can't use a steamer because of...
Finally all moved in now. Very stressful and tiring moving Monday. Our house completed really early in the day at about 10, but the keys to the new house didn't get released until 14:30.

My parents told me that when they were young you were considered rich if you could have carpet in every room, and only poor people had floorboards and a rug. Funny how times change and go full...
A lot of people do still have carpets in all rooms of their houses (other than the kitchen). However for quite some time now it is more common to have wood or laminate flooring downstairs and...
That is also true. My wife only keeps her own stuff.
According to her all my stuff is junk and clutter and taking up space she could be using as a guest bedroom. Amazing logic, to have a...
Very much the same. My wife won't get rid of anything, keeping shoes and clothes even when they are worn out. And old furniture, which I've nearly managed to get rid of.
Only 3 more days to go now until the move on Monday.
I've been off work this week to pack the whole house up myself and I'm slowly getting there. Biggest job was the loft as it has been...
You looked up the street called North Bersted. My road is Greencourt Drive and that is 6 metres above sea level. With no history of flooding.

Is that because of it being in Bognor?
I hadn't actually noticed the gate was different. We actually want to replace it with a solid one so people can't see down the sideway.
I think you are right that the Googlemaps images are quite...
Yes that's right. About 5 miles, whatever that is in KM. And just over 1 mile 1.6KM from the sea. And they have lots of parks and playgrounds, plus a pier and small amusement arcade. Bognor...
:lol: It definitely takes motivation to work on a garden and keep it nice.
Our existing house, being a new build, has a fairly small garden and we have always hated how restrictive it is,...
After a long process we are finally moving house!
We finally exchanged at the end of last week and are completing (moving in) on Monday 19th October. Moving from Fishbourne (Chichester) in West...
