  Kitchen companies
Posted by: Proserpina - 24-08-2022, 05:49 PM - Replies (14)

Hello all,

I'm looking for recommendations for companies that may be good for planning and installing a new kitchen. Obviously national brands, rather than local to you as I probably can't get anyone to pop over from Wales or down from Mull! I've been told about a few to avoid, but not any to actually try.

I have a very dated kitchen with several challenges when it comes to putting a new one in: it's tiny (maybe I should be knocking down a wall or opening up a doorway - I want a company I can talk through options with), the consumer unit/meters are in a really awkward place and need to go somewhere else, there are windows and doors everywhere so limited options for where things can go, the leak has left some of my floorboards and probably one joist rotten, the plumbing is probably from the 50s and needs replacing, there also needs to be a full rewire though I will probably arrange that separately, I want to somehow squeeze a dishwasher into the available space as well as a fridge-freezer and a washing machine (though maybe the washing machine can go in the back porch?), and I'll probably be staying in a different town while they work so won't be around to monitor progress or micro-manage outside tradespeople.

Anyone know of any good companies that I can actually sit down and have a conversation with and who will come back to me with suggestions to make it work? The kitchen almost put me off buying the house but I hoped inspiration would strike me when I actually moved in. Sadly it has not, and I really need someone who knows what they are doing!

With the aims of Reduce and Recycle, I'm going to work my way through the Alphabet, looking for items of clutter that I can either Reduce (dispose of) or Recycle (give away). 

Today's letter is A. 
Feel free to list your own Clutter and whether you have any plans for it. Big Grin Reuse, Reorganise, Repurpose etc are all acceptable plans!

  courgette - stratio de napoli
Posted by: Mark_Riga - 19-08-2022, 06:08 PM - No Replies

This has grown in an interesting way this year. I have grown it before and not noticed this but it is growing upwards and fruiting higher up the plant as time passes so the courgettes are easy to get at and pick. I have 2 plants and both doing the same.
