Installing a new Kitchen Using Keith Holder Kitchens

We have lived in our current home for 31 years and have had the kitchen revamped a couple of times by just replacing the door fronts. However I have always dreamt of having a granite worktop so after some serious consideration we decided to go the whole hog and rip out whole of the kitchen and start again. Well the units were looking a bit tired and the carcasses were very worn in places and of course this would allow me to have my dream granite worktops.

It has been quite a while since I last did a blog post so decided that as our dog Archie the Clumberdoodle turned 5 on the 2nd April 2022 it was a good time to put fingers to keyboard.

I know we are daft but we do celebrate his birthday, complete with presents and birthday cake. [Read more…] about Clumberdoodle Archie’s 5th Birthday April 2022

How I Trimmed My Bush

April 2020 – My Husband (Steve) bought me a bush trimmer for Christmas so I thought now as I have plenty of time to spare during the “Lockdown” I would give it a good workout.

This was the first time that I wanted to try this out, but unfortunately due the nature of the bush and it’s density it was not “man” enough to do the job and I had to use another tool to complete the job.

After a while I managed to shape it the best I could and here is the finished result. [Read more…] about How I Trimmed My Bush

Padstow Townhouse – Paul Ainsworth At No.6 – Cockerpoo For My 60th Birthday

I hit my big 60th Birthday on 14th December 2016 and leading up to it, I have to say that I was not looking forward to the prospect of reaching this milestone.

Steve (hubby) arranged a surprise overnight stay somewhere as I am not one for parties and especially not a surprise one. I tried my hardest to guess what it was going to be but he wasn’t giving anything away. Now I love arranging surprises for others, but I am afraid that when it is me that is being surprised I find it difficult, as I like to be in control all of the time.
