When my parents first moved into their place the bathroom and seperate toilet where entirely blue. As in blue tiles on the walls and floors combined with blue fixtures. Most of the walls had plywood panelling stuck to the original early 1900's walls and it took a lot of effort for things to end up restored.

well why not posted:and coloured tiles, and homes dug into loving rock face, and rooftop pools, and shag carpeting, and louvre doors, and chrome bathroom everything, and wood panelling There's some shag rugs in the house that we're absolutely throwing on gumtree. Chrome bathroom everything check, the tiles are brown through the house. We're looking at something a bit brighter for the laundry reno

well why not posted:1950 - 1970 had a lot of opinions w/r/t brick and archways Our 1975 place generally has arched windows as a general theme. Our front facing and upstairs windows are arched and so are the garage doors. I actually like that look on a rendered house.... On the outside. Thankfully no actual interior room dividers, which always are a poo poo use of space, though the bathroom has them over the shower and bath, and little archways etched into the cabinets and arched mirrors. That will all go in favour of some boring modern thing when we renovate I expect. Throughout the house there's stained cedar wood -everywhere- and I'm torn because I want to modernise and refresh it but it's also done with actual wood and quality fittings. Our main bedroom the previous owners just slapped white paint on it all and it looks awful. (Though this is mainly because they clearly had no loving idea how to paint and didn't sand anything down first, so there's just fat globs of paint everywhere)

i did about maybe an 1/8 acre worth of mowing with the pushie and then immediately gave up because i dont want to collapse. My neighbour that owned me by saying I smoked too much dope for him to feel comfortable lending me his ride on has made amends by promising to keep his ear close to the old oval office network for cheap second hand jobs that are in good nick. My chickens adamantly refuse to eat grass unless it has been pre clipped for them because they are precious things that would die if I stopped paying attention to them for more than the time that I sleep

Smashed about 2.5L of water and some Powerade in the few hours, now everyone is at our place. Broke in the bbq that the guy left us, it is good as. Good cast iron plate, smashed a bunch of burgs and onion on it for everyone

We had some friends come over for home made pizzas and grazing platter munchies. One of them is a building designer so he gave us some advice on what the gently caress to do with our tiny, terrible bathroom, then we all had some drinks while relaxing in the aircon as it was too hot outside to really do much else. The kids enjoyed playing 2 player Untitled Goose Game A good day

Mum's making roast lamb and I'm having a coffee against my own rule of not drinking it past about midday. I took Friday and Monday off to spend the extra-long weekend down in the Hunter Valley visiting wineries with mates. Whilst it was fuckin' hot, it was pretty grouse and I got to see some mates from Sydney I'd not seen in 9 months. Can recommend the Hunter as a good winery spot, just avoid the big names with the screaming hordes of wasted white girls and you're golden.

We could schedule a whole week of aus days - start it off with Yeah Nah Cunts Were Here Already Day, then Sorry Day, then No Wuckers Mate Day, followed by No Fucken Politics Day and round out the week with Best Fucken Country In The World Day. Bewdy!
