Decorating and Diamond time

another special weeding anniversary ... this one the paternal Uncle ... a spa time in celebration ...

And Mum for the last week been decorating the front room... me ... going round in spirals through the layers ... 

It is good see less stuffed cupboards ... I have slowly thinned out ...

And kiddy chuckling with the finds today too, commenting the flat is like Mary Poppins with what surfaces from hiding  ... it was nicknamed the Tardis on moving in ...

I charted the history of this ... the way things soon date .... the marvel at things not seen the light of day normal to those who entertain... or use the home in more ways to use what they have regular in rotation for the seasons celebrations than those who live messily ... and never find things ....

And the way we live with things we tend to forget we can have, in the sometimes usual run of those living in some other homes ...

The minimalists, the show rooms, the mansions to terrace, the eco, the cave dwellers the fascinating array in this country ... the supported homes, sheltered housing and the like ...

And the collections of memorabilia that take over the home, train enthusiasts, dolls, Royal, Wade, the Steiff bears, treasure troves .... and then ... we know some of the rest ...
