Before And After

Thank you all for your kind comments, stars and hearts.

Madhatter remarked that it is a privilege to live in such a fine building and indeed it is.

Now that we are in lockdown for another 11 weeks (at least) Pat and I really appreciate our home and garden.

We were inspired and guided to put in a lot of time, effort and money, to transform what was a building, abandoned for some 28 years.

Today’s extra shows the interior, as we found it on our first visit. The image is a scan of a film colour print.

The main photo was taken today. Quite a change.

There have been many highs and lows that have occurred on this journey.

Perhaps, I should write a book.

The second extra is a closer view of the thumbnail. It is a plaster sculpture of Mercury illuminated in the evening sun.

Originally from an estate house in Royal Deeside we discovered  Mercury, somewhat forlorn, in an "Antiques and Collectables", Aboyne.

I think we paid £10.

Best Wishes and Good Health to Everyone as we continue our way together through this time.
