*goes green with envy @ Kemp's airing cupboard, lol!!

Emma, I have a lovely conservatory, and spend most of my time in here, especially in the Autumn/Winter/Spring. The glare on a sunny day in summer can be troublesome, although it doesn't get too hot...

My problem is storage. The wardrobe we converted to an airing-type cupboard now houses all my granddaughters stuff. My spare double bedroom houses all my son's stuff... and has taken up the built in and freestanding wardrobe, and two chests of drawers, plus the drawers under the bed.

My garage is filled with stuff my father needs to sort out as it belonged to his brother. I have been storing it for 4 years now, and still he hasn't even looked at it. As it is very dry in there, it would be perfect for storing a lot of the stuff that is indoors... and in fact we had started to get the shelving up, and converting old wardrobes when Uncle died.

I have stuff belonging to a brother, as well, plus stuff belonging to the son who moved back home in Sept last year. Plus all granddaughter's outdoor toys. And two leaky damp sheds, so nothing perishable goes in those, mainly gardening stuff.

Plus my kitchen still hasn't been finished, so we need to go and get qute a few more units to complete.

Oh, and we are hoarders, as well.... so Huston, we have a space problem, lolol

Love

That you would add if you could!

In mine there are two things... an airing cupboard as I don't have one, and a decent understairs cupboard that I do not have to get on my hands and knees to get into! lolol

The whole house is in various stages of completion... but I can manage a half finished kitchen, lack of doors on the wardrobe alcove, etc etc I can cope with that and it doesn't bother me.... but I do miss a decent airing cupboard, and all that stuff hidden in a cupboard I can no longer reach, lolol........

Love
