We moved into a wreck of a house named Miltonholm. Never found out why so when we had finished renovating it ourselves we renamed it...Nakadus...x

Sometimes it's quite prudent to give a home a name: which sounds better? "We put Mum and Dad into a nursing home." or "Mater and Pater are now residing quite splendidly at Cosy Acres By The Brook.":)

After many years of waiting & saving our first house was called ''Atlasta House''

We bought what we found out to be an ex police house.
Making over the garden, we found a little plate... Dunbikin... how cringeworthy is that. Worse than Dunroaming.
