  • Don’t let your dreams be dreams.

    Obviously pointless as I’ve got a shower door down most of the edge, but pokey-outy tile edges and the accompanying trim always annoyed me. A silly detail in a bathroom full of silly details that, now we’re selling, I doubt will be appreciated by the the next owner (and I doubt I will be able to afford to implement in the next place).

  • I have also been extremely exigent over a lot of details across the house, all of which will go unnoticed to the next owners and certainly will not add any value to the house when I come to sell it.

    Case in point - I dislike Switched Fused connections so I got them all moved in a kitchen cupboard, onto a board so the kitchen tiling can be "less cluttered" - zero added value.

    I also forced the plumber to chase the new boiler pipes into the wall so the kitchen tiling would be flush (and not boxed) - again absolutely no added value.

    The list of superfluous requirements continues across the house - you just become your own enemy, burning money/time/efforts well knowing that you will sell the house within 5 years.

    But hey, that's what you got to do, right?

  • This is nice but quite mad.
