Long overdue work to our little '30s semi

[Johnmed]

After a long wet winter, writing my dissertation for my MA, and the 75 year old Pa in law recovering from his broken ankle.... We boxed off the render. I sorted the gates out with some new wood and gave the front an undercoat and top coat today. Now I need to strip the painted brick and tidy stuff up, oh and paint the other two walls.

Ooow pretty.

I'm not sure if you can still buy brick acid?

That looks great! It's a real improvement.

Thanks.

It's not the fanciest house. But it's all ours and a bit of TLC is going a long way.

I was not taking the P, it genuinely looks pretty. And brick acid is something that would remove most things from brick.

Small update. Our front lawn has of late been looking more like Monet's water garden. So I've ordered some plum slate, and levelled the grass with sand, topped with some membrane.
