P&C London's Profile

PS for the shelving I was thinking something like this Ikea piece because it's very open, even got glass shelves, or obviously whatever matches the rest of your style:

"Rooms that are all closed up, blinds down, curtains drawn, especially if it is daylight and there are lights on."

Sparkling before 4pm = crazy b***hes gonna chase me...

Sorry I didn't read all the comments but, Sandra Felton, my guru of not being a total slob, says making your bed means the single largest and most intimate piece of furniture in your house, is radiating harmony.

There ya go: we mostly do duvets (comforters I think in the US?) and if you can't be bothered to pull yours up and straighten it, then yeah, you probably have other stuff going on!

@TELLAGRAHAM "I am curious @P&C LONDON, why you call decking slimy and trendy? I am going to take a leap here and guess you are in the UK"

Yes totally, and that has informed my view, I should probably have mentioned that though, so you're right to call me to account on it! ;)

Decking here is basically a woodlice (those nasty, squirmy white ones) and slime-fest haven, I can totally see how in AZ or CA, decking is the bomb! (Can I say that? Will I ever get to fly transatlantic again?! lol!!)

Those bathroom tiles are stunning, but why is there not a single thing above that fireplace? Is it a safety issue? Just my personal taste of course, but wanted to ask.

It's beautiful, and that's about all I can say - enough detail to be interesting, enough space to be stylish... pleasure to see, thanks!

I winder about frost as well... shame they've not taken advantage of the way copper repels slugs & snails in some way, to keep the nasties off your herbs - solid copper planters would be $$$ but a thin strip here and there might work?

@Pamela at ClockworkCrow I'd never heard of rubber mulch until today, but it's the kind of thing I might have been drawn to, so thanks for that tip on avoiding it! Sounds nasty when you think about it.

Yup, after I posted I realised I agree with EJBRAMMER - do we get this level of sniping when someone blows $20 on a throw pillow, that won't even give joy to an innocent animal?

Or $20 on paints and varnishes that are deeply toxic from manufacture to decomposition, just because they're the "in" look right now?

If "food pantries" are the only legit place to put disposable income, this whole site, its ethos, and a million retailers would be closed down overnight.

Dogs (all pets) prolong human life, improve human health, and are living beings who surely deserve the occasional bit of fuss?

I like that, always feel like a part of me gets left behind when I move... maybe this will bridge the gap next time!

Cheap commercial hair bleach, like L'Oreal Pre-Lightener, will stick and cling to tiles and remove the kinds of gunk you'd think you need to get industrial for... source of experience, removing grey body-detritus from shared bathroom 9 years ago...
