My thoughts, ramblings and attempted on-line build diary of our new home in Co. Limerick, Ireland.
Welcome to my blog
We moved to Ireland with the notion of building our "dream" home in May 2007 after purchasing the site earlier on that year. Mr C is Irish and originally from Limerick but he remains in the UK during the week, his job is running www.cruise.co.uk and earning the bucks that will hopefully allow us to "live the dream."
It's taken us almost two years but ground will be broken on the site by the end of May 09!! A lot of blood, sweat & loads of tears (all mine!) have gone into this project already, we left a fabulous house behind in Newcastle...and now for my Kevin McLeod bit, "can the new build can live up to my expectations and the old house we left behind"? I'm not sure...keep watching my blog and you'll find out!!
i am so envious, this is what i imagine my little postage stamp of a kitchen looks like in real life.....it is stunning....i love that grey....i have it everywhere , i think it's not possible to get enough of it ....your lights are fantastic too.....blue shelves in bedroom really great too as is stairs ... amazing....
