I really must get round to doing some housework!

This is the sorry state of the kitchen in the old, ruined house in the village.  It has deteriorated so much recently that I didn't dare climb the stairs today, far too much daylight to be seen through them!  

What I find sad is the sight of all the baking tins.  Some woman looked after this kitchen once upon a time, and she would have had a terrific view out onto the sea too.  The ivy and mould are taking over now . . . 

Latterly, in the 70s and 80s, it was a hikers' hostel, but it was already in a poor state then.  Now there are only rats and birds in residence!

Note the bottle and glasses still on the windowsill!
