I’ve been asked to post images of our house to remind our guests of it and how it’s changed since they were last here. .

We’ve rented it for sixteen years. Which makes it the house I’ve lived in longest in the whole of my life.

It’s actually two houses.

On the ground floor it’s a 2 bhk. That’s two bedrooms, a hall (lounge), dining room (converted to NQAR —- not quite a room — for Kaveri, kitchen, entrance foyer for the shoes,

On the first floor it’s a 3bhk and now one of the bedrooms is Manjula’s library.

…

When Manjula first came here it was sparsely furnished and decorated.

Her first worry was that there wasn’t an electric grinder.

Having to use this, would be just too much!

Now the house is full to bursting inside and out

Here’s a little tour or two

…

We had an Indian family return to see us last week. I asked what they could spot on this wall that wasn’t Indian.

Can you see?

Returning guests take pleasure from spotting what’s new. The ‘blue plaque’, outside the front door, denoting that it’s where a famous person lived is the latest addition.
