To Bedfordshire (back blip for Wed)

This is the staircase at David and Hessie's house, looking up the stairwell. The staircase initially only went up one floor but, in the anticipation of their first child, they decided that a loft conversion would give them some much-needed extra space.

The plan was to get it well out of the way before their son was born. The plan failed, because builders are builders.

On the plus side, this did at least mean that their son can sleep through the sound of hammering, sawing, and all manner of power tools; we suspect that he may even find it soothing.
