I am very good at putting other things behind and inside each other to maximise space. I don't always remember they are there but that at least adds an element of surprise! I have been looking at the messy and overcrowded bedroom for ages pondering what I could do with it. It is still overcrowded but better arranged so looks less so. I have a sweet little desk which belonged to my Great Aunt Peggy. I had put it on top of Andy's book case for ages and it kind of worked but I wanted to use it as a desk rather than just storage. It is the right height for a cat wanting to look out the front window, so I thought I would put it there and swap it with the little bookcase my brother made for me, which served this purpose before, but with room for only one. I managed to fit the desk and the bookcase, so now there is room for all three cats.
Andy has a collection of books about Napoleon, and two beautifully framed prints. This one has been living at the back of my sock box for a while as I could not find anywhere for it. Once the desk had come off the top of here I could make a little space for it and Andy's little boxes of cufflinks etc. At this point in my endeavours I was accused of thinking I live in a magazine! I like it though!
Here is the little desk. Now I can blog at the same time as nosing out of the window-should I want to!
This photo is called 'Yes'. As in, 'Yes I do have teddies on top of the wardrobe.' I may not have grown up but I can't throw away anything with a face! I have terrible trouble at work. At least now the teddies and foxes have been arranged tastefully, and the lovely old suitcases of Andy's Dad's are being shown off. Our virus continued so we rang PC world in the end and a lovely man advised us how to get rid of it. If it is any help to anyone who gets a similar thing this is the gist of it. I had tried to do a system restore, but nothing was working due to the virus. To overide this you have to continuously press the F8 key as the computer is starting up. Then do full destructive recovery-but only if your files are backed up as this gets rid of it all. It has worked though, hurray! Now we just have to see if i-tunes will come back!
