I seem to have purchased more for this property this time round than for the others and I have to exert extreme self control at fairs as this is such a large property, I could go mad unless I condition myself to only purchase bits for the current job in hand - hence the need for a list. I'm very good at sticking to the list.
For the basement I have a log, axe and some firewood (I never thought of those additions until I saw them which is a slight deviation from the list but I think I'm allowed one deviation!), some jugs - always useful, a selection of cloths (these will either be stored in drawers or out on view), spectacles and their case for one of the staff - not sure which yet, a fire bucket, some dado rail, white wall tiles, a general box and a non-working clock from Halls Miniature Clocks.
The only downside to this trip was the journey home. After getting the 6pm train from York, I didn't arrive in Edinburgh until 10.40pm due to delays. There was then a half hour journey home. Still, it could have been worse, it could have been snowing!
