1930s Semi by the Sea: What Would Kim and Aggie Do?

Our last visit to the building site revealed that the team left our old toilets, sink and other house debris to sit heaped in our back garden – an eye sore for our neighbours. Being one of those people who manically vacuums and dusts before anyone visits my house, I was mortified by this discovery. We have such lovely new neighbours – they’ve been very good about putting up with the disruption of the works – and they certainly shouldn’t be punished with a view of a 1960s turquoise WC.

I can deal with the fact that the interior will probably be a mess for the majority of the project, as one would expect on a full-blown renovation, but the outside mess brought out the Kim/Aggie in me. I showed Paul No. 1 the heap of junk and asked that it be cleared immediately – and be kept cleared. I hope it hasn’t crept back by next week.
