We Are Going on a Field Trip to Check Out UK Crazy for a Change
Share News:
Hellooooo there poppets, get your passport and pack a bag because this week we are going on a field trip to the UK. We’ve seen a lot of rather questionable nutball homes right here in the ‘ol U. S. of A. How about we go look at some UK crazy? Perhaps we will have a spot of tea and some crumpets. I’ve already arranged for a tour guide.
Yes! You lucky duckies. Mrs. Eugenia Doubtfire will be joining us on the tour of this magnificent mid terrace house that is in need of updating and “modernisation.” I love how they spell modernisation with an “S.” I digress. Back to the home in question.
That’s not too bad at all. I like the color of brick. It is a lot more cheery than I anticipated. The UK has such a reputation for being overcast and dreary that this was a pleasant surprise. Now I know my roofer would have something to say about the staining and condition of the roof because she is sensational but that’s fine. Nothing can ever be perfect. Right?
To quote just about anyone in the UK, “Bloody hell!”
Not even a dancing Mrs. Doubtfire and her broom could help this room. Here’s a question for you. In the first picture, by the door, is that a crack in the concrete foundation or a crack in the carpet? A yes to either question scares the wits out of me.
Blimey!!! The loo is quite something. What exactly, I cannot tell you, but it’s something.
In all honesty, I’m guessing this is the kitchen. I’m not exactly sure so let’s pretend. Much like Stonehenge, you’re going to see something and not be quite sure how it came about.
Who had boy band members and the chap from the Twilight movies on their Housey-Housey card. (That’s bingo for we Yanks.) Me throwing in all these UK words and expressions really makes it seem like we’re there. You are welcome.
A Mack truck, a fat-bottomed girl, and pharaohs. I do believe the word Mrs. Doubtfire is looking for “rubbish.”
Oi! That’s crackers! I am going to add that expression to my everyday vernacular. Okay poppets, the field trip is over. I hope you’ve enjoyed yourself.
Oh who are we kidding? We can all agree that I am pretty darn funny!

Someone described art Nouveau to a blind person who then hired a Latvian surgeon turned English painter and described what they wanted.
That’s my head canon now. And somehow Patsy is responsible for starting the whole mess.
So what you’re saying is all that is not what we want in home decor? ha ha ha Thanks for the read. Have a great rest of the week.
