In a bun dance

If I'm going to get something, I usually get it in spades - luck (both kinds), children, clutter, dirty laundry, bright ideas, daft ideas...

I think this might take a while

July 27, 2007 By Ellen


We’ve moved on from the idea that another cludgy would be a good idea to wanting a full-on extension with a roof and everything. In my mind’s eye it’s fab – spacious and tidy (clearly the building fairies will spirit our clutter and junk away too). I’ve even figured out the kind of tiles on the wall of the new shower room – the upstairs one not the downstairs one!
The architect came a few weeks ago and we stood in the sunshine and looked at the flat roof. Ping – in an instant as the sun beat down we both saw an elegant balcony with hostas in modern ceramic tubs and groovy wicker furniture.
Since then… nothing. I’ve called him and I’ve called builderwholivesdowntheroad to see if he could help. Everyone’s just so very very busy. Not busy doing anything for me though, are they?
I can see this whole build an extension – it’ll be fab you’d be daft not to – business is going to use up some of my huge stockpile of serenity.
I’m frustrated and no one’s even been near with so much as a housebrick.
Anyone know a good architect with time on their hands?
