chaos

This is as far as we have got with the packing

trailer park

We have just returned from our first outing in our caravan staying at Big 4 Holiday park in Ballarat.

We now own a big caravan! I guess its an 80% chance or crazy plan will come to fruition and we will be gypos this winter, although I'm not sure if you can be technically a gypsy if your caravan doesn't move and has split system air-con and WiFi! There are still some issues about geting the beast on and off the block that we have to resolve then its full steam ahead with our adventure in mid July.

Caravan

Could this be our new home? It would only be for 3 or 4 months.... Here are the positives as we see it

colourful

Decorating my kid's bedroom has never been high on the priority list. Recently however, in preparation for the photoshoot and OFInspections I made an effort to put some colourful things on display.

We have sold our house! The auction was due to be held this Sat but we accepted an early offer. The new owner has a public profile so we know she (obviously!) has great taste. Its lovely to know the house's quirky charm will be appreciated.

Here are some snaps from the last inspection. The front room has finally been finished and presented as a 'grown-ups retreat'

concrete exterior

Oh I love this! Millard House by Frank Lloyd Wright. Breeze blocks & concrete working beautifully together. I think the colour & tone of the concrete creates a soft, natural appearance. It is probably an impractical render for our new house as its not a typical cladding option but we seem to keep thinking about it.
