I'm more than ready for a bungalow LOL.

We were really amused when one of the people that works with mum offered to help start painting the upstairs of the new house while they were getting the kitchen fitted. She couldn't understand why everyone else was laughing so hard...on account of it being a bungalow.

Then the other day, my aunt randomly asked mum on the phone "Does it have a bathroom?" Of course, it's been driving my mum potty ever since, "what a silly question...why do you think she would ask that?"

But isn't that dangerous, I mean do you get in a sit-in bath THEN put the water in?

It could scald you!

(ok I'm being picky now lol)
