Our cluttered little home

We went to visit Mr and Mrs C our former next-door neighbours on Wednesday to check out their lovely new house. We were suitably impressed, but Emma was not in the least bit envious I’m relieved to say. It would be out of our league. In any case, Emma insists she prefers our tiny cottage. She likes small things - thank goodness. For our taste, the new house had the feel of a show-house about it. This is not simply because they have only just moved in. Mr and Mrs C are minimalists. For example, from what I could see, they have only one book between them (a dictionary) whereas Emma and I have hundreds. They are around us in every room, together with all kinds of other clutter we have collected over the years. Occasionally, Emma insists that we have a sort-out, which means hiding stuff in cupboards to make room for more. To each his/her own. [By the way, we are away at the moment.]
