A Little Trip around the Urban Cottage

We thought you might like a little look at the Urban Cottage and its inhabitants.  It's looking pretty fab at the moment, we've done lots of work recently - not least some expert floor painting by Lovely Spouse and a sooper dooper set of new timber double glazed sash windows downstairs! Its a pleasure to live here in sunny Hackney!

Springy Spring and Summery Summer

It's such a beautiful day, its time to get things started!
Miss Lu and myself have been itching to get this project started.  So, we've created and photographed our banner and finally managed to get it up on to Blogger!  We are now officially blogging!
It feels good!
It feels like the right thing to do!
So.... this blog will be a place where we share our interests, projects, makes and dos as well as pointing you to things we think you might also like.
We hope you enjoy it.
