Becky’s September square photo challenge Day 22! She would like us to share photos which embrace ‘pink’ – there could be pink in the photo, the subject or photographer could be ‘tickled pink’*, or indeed looking ‘in the pink’*. A photo that manages to do all three things is the ultimate offering.
William Morris Wallpaper
*‘in the pink’ means in perfect condition, or in good health, and ‘tickled pink’ means delighted.
September Squares | Pink
Marvellous!
I think it looks lovely in your square, but a whole wall of it would be too much for my taste. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete. x
Not my taste either Pete, far too “chintzy” but in the right house it does look lovely.
Beautiful! Now how did I miss a month of pink!!!!!!????
I did wonder where you were!
It’s been a ridiculously busy time but in mostly a good way 😊
Good 🙂 And still time to join in with the Pinktember.
So much pink! Love it.
There’s still time 😁
YES! There is 😊
Oh I’d love to have a feature wall in William Morris, but need to find the right house first!!
Yes, it does need the right house. Something late Victorian or Edwardian with high ceilings.
High ceilings are on the ‘what are we looking for’ list for our next home!
Next home? You are thinking of moving away from the lovely Winchester? Following Jo’s example maybe?
Yup! We want to move west; quieter, cleaner air, walks on doorstep and a view. Plus an opportunity to release some capital and escape our dreadful neighbours!
Ah, are these the neighbours with the large extension?
Yes…..once friends but now they don’t talk to us. Got no idea why as when I asked they said they couldn’t talk!!!
Oh dear. Did you complain about the extension? I need to speak to my neighbour about a balcony she installed a couple of years ago whilst we were away. Looks directly into my bedroom!
oh no!! That’s awful . . . . . .
The weird thing is we haven’t complained about it. We have had to speak to their builders about digging up our drive, scaffolding falling onto our drive, rubble falling onto the car and other problems, but not once have we complained about their project itself. We would have spoken to them about it but they told us via email to speak to the builders.
Three years ago their project was delayed by the party wall agreement because their builder didn’t set out the details of how they were going to avoid our garage falling down or the other neighbours, and so their surveyor couldn’t complete the paperwork. For some reason though they blamed us and the other neighbours for that, which we have still not figured out.
They have never once apologised for the disruption to our lives, not even a cheap bottle of wine and yet it is them not talking to us. Wish I knew what we had done!!
I wouldn’t waste any more time thinking about them, seems to me you have done nothing wrong at all. Either they feel too guilty to talk to you or are not worth bothering about. Sounds like it has been a complete nightmare!
exactly what my Mum, my best friend and another neighbour said to me . . . . 😀
It’s very pretty but I wouldn’t have a whole wall of it either.
If you had a large room with high ceilings it would look nice. And a big fireplace of course.
When I have a huge country mansion with a full staff to care for it, I shall have some William Morris wallpaper, or fabric. 😉
I think we have had this conversation before Elaine 😉
It is a conversation I am always happy to have! I think in another life I lived the life of a well off person with a country pile! 😀 😀
Haha… I think most people with ‘country piles’ are rather dotty. I don’t think you are 🙂
Very kind of you to say so… 🙂
I wouldn’t choose it either but it’s timeless and beautiful.
And in the right house it is just perfect.
