Through the keyhole, urban style. With pics.:)

[mrsfran]

LOVE your kitchen, Madz.

*jealous*

 

[indigo4]

my flatmate in my room watching bb

excuse the shabby attempt at art...hahhaha

 

[madzone]

What a fantastic fireplace madz. And gorgeous chair.

*want to live in the country*

It is a lovely house but not all houses in the country are this nice

My husband makes the chairs

 

[dilute micro]

Working on sewing a linen shirt. I keep it a mess. I really need to buy a table.

 

[madzone]

LOVE your kitchen, Madz.

*jealous*

As kitchens go it's a bit shit. It's pretty but it has very few units and the cooker is tiny. If we owned it I'd have a very different layout.

 

[mrsfran]

Here is the art on my wall what I made. I painted some canvasses with different shades of red. It's not thrilling, but I like it because I am TERRIBLE at art.

As an added bonus, you can see my cat Hoggy clawing up the carpet.

 

[trashpony]

I have just noticed that madz has a bottle of Gordons on the table. I love her even more

(and your husband makes pretty chairs)

Here's my dull kitchen

And my living room

Extra points if you can spot the cat

That's a lovely kitchen

And the bottle of gin is actually sloe gin - I drank about half a bottle before dinner

eta - fucking hell you're house is tidy for someone with a baby!

 

[mrsfran]

Trashpony - excellent space utilisation in a small kitchen

 

[indigo4]

dilute

how the hell can you sew without a table...hahah i keep meaning to get my sewing machine out but im just incredibly lazy so it sits in a box where it has stayed since i bought it a year ago...maybe if i taught myself to make something other than cushions might give me more inspiration!

 

[moomoo]

Madzone, you have my dream kitchen

I've always wanted a room big enough for a table and chairs.

And that fireplace - wow!

Thank you. Did you notice that you can actually see the ceiling above the spice jars? I live under the stairs. Like a vacuum cleaner or something

Madz - my home is tidy because my baby can't move yet. There are also some brightly coloured chairs and things which I have cunningly hidden. There are also quite a few sick/posset stains on the carpet

Not easy. I'm just getting used to that old Singer myself.

 

[Madusa]

Cant spot the cat, Trashy, but love that Tamara de Lempicka print.

Oh... just had a proper butchers...is it the black ball on the cushion in front the tv?

Thank you

And that's an extra point to you

 

[ShiftyBagLady]

indigo, i have the very same stripy socks that are on your radiator, somebody has great taste in that house

 

[mrsfran]

That's the ceiling?

You've done well.

 

[Guineveretoo]

I spotted the cat, too.

And I had a baby 26 and a half years ago. Can I still use that excuse for my house being a mess?

Don't you bump your head on the ceiling? Or are you a shorty like me?

 

[Firky]

my current hovel - rest of the place is a shit tip as the builders are in and it aint really my place

(misses his house)

 

[red rose]

Have a student bedroom. This is one of the nicest ones on campus, to the right of the camera is a tiny shower room (ignore the orange squash, thats just my only sink so the squash tends to end up there )

 

[paolo]

A few months old, but you get gist...

 

[JoMo1953]

Not easy. I'm just getting used to that old Singer myself.

"old Singer" looks like a Singer Featherweight, if it is they are worth a lot of money....bought one for my mother years ago off of E-Bay...

 

[butterfly child]

you guys are lame.

I'll try and take a picture later, when the cleaning lady has been in.

Or maybe tomorrow, when we've cleared the kitchen extension out and have had our new sofas delivered and installed in it.

 

[Guineveretoo]

I want a cleaning lady! That way, I can be a lazy hippy and no-one will know from looking at my house

I am not at work today, and will do some of the housework I was supposed to be doing yesterday, and then I might take a picture of my sitting room

 

[Madusa]

Great pics people!

Firky - was that 'the' set? Plus is that a cat or a dog on the bed - fucking huge cat if it is one!

Red rose - is that the famous duvet cover? And why have you got a curtain in your loo? is it one of those wet rooms? lol at the squash on the cistern!

paolo999 - love that room - the lighting and pics are great... is that a lounge? Looks huge!



Come on Butters - get the cleaner to get a wriggle on so you can take your pics. I want a cleaner!!

 

[Firky]

It is my cat

He is fucking HUGE


Err no it wasn't the set, I just realised what you meant

 

[girasol]

my current place is civilised, and homely, but doesn't make for an interesting pic.

Here's the bedroom in a wonderful housing association place I lived in Islington from 1992 to 1995:
(that guy was my boyfriend at the time, he used to get into fights often and had a black eye, and my beloved cat)

the other side of the bedroom:

my bed:

It was an old victorian house, so the rooms were big! I was very sad to leave it, as it also had a superb garden It was converted into a very posh house after we moved out.

Also, note the absence of a computer anywhere in the room! Shocking!

 

[hiccup]

Just clearing up my desktop and found these.

Garden:

It's small, but I like it. No lawn to mow either. The Tesco bag's got washing pegs in it. I need a more stylish pegbag I think.

Kitchen

The bit through the door is a sort of added on bit that was built out into the garden. Note the worrying lack of wine in the wine rack.

 

[mr steev]

I thought I had some pics of our old flat on my pc, but it seems that they may still be on my phone (which I think I've lost over the weekend )

I did find one of my shed though...
