We recently bought a new house and have been busily doing it up since April. This weekend we were mainly steaming, scraping and scrubbing the walls in the entrance hall. It's a horrible job as there are layers of old lead paint to steam and scrape off.

I managed to escape for a breather in the garden. It is more builder's yard than bucolic idyll, but there were some highlights.
