Ain't no nosey parker but I'm always fascinated by those photos that my honourable fellow bloggers sometimes load up showing their computery work areas. They're so much more neat and tidy and modern and hi-teccy than my scruffy set-up!

I've always been far too embarrassed to show the world my digital-age, nerve centre hidden away in a dusty old corner of the slobbing around room 'cos, to put it bluntly, it's such a bleedin' tip. But there again, thinking about it, I like working in a tip. Always have. And to be honest, as far as tips go, this has to be one of the best, especially on a day like today with the windows wide open and sunlight streaming in. It may not suit everyone (an understatement if ever there was one!) but it'll certainly do me.

A wee guided tour of the slobbing around room ('lounge' sounds far too formal for a pit such as this)... Desk in corner facing east. To the west is the telly-watching settee (I slob on the right, Sprock lays on the left - but always nicks my spot when I go downstairs to make a cuppa - and Jock generally lays under the coffee table). To the north you'll no doubt notice the lack of progress with planned new bathroom. Face south and you'll see the magnificent view (actually you won't 'cos you'll be blinded by sunlight).

So there you go; first the kitchen and now the (sort of) lounge: the two main living rooms of a bohemian hermit recluse. If nothing else they'll hopefully make you feel better about your interior decor, fitments and general standards of domesticity. And if you're a burglar, as you can see, forget it.
