Arriving back in Exeter
Dec. 9th, 2012 10:04 pmA much longer than expected journey back to the West Country after the train was diverted through Newport to avoid engineering works around Bristol Parkway. This wouldn't have been quite so bad if the train hadn't been quite so busy — I was stuck next to a group of guys on their way back from seeing Rancid in Birmingham — and if I hadn't been in a hurry to get back before the supermarket closed.
Arriving home, I was delighted by the transformation wrought by my landlords. With a couple of weeks of work, the removal of a few bits of annoying built-in furnature, and the application of a light & minimal colour scheme in place of the blues, purples & greens of the old scheme, they're given the old place a wonderfully light and airy feel.
( The new look... )
And while I'm not looking forward to all the reshelving and sorting I'm going to have to do to get things straight, I can see enough to know that it's going to look pretty damn good once it's finished...
