		<title>Cherry Blossom Girl</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last year I spent 2 weeks travelling around Japan, which was an amazing experience. I&#8217;ve always been fascinated by Tokyo since I was at school and saw a TV program about businessmen sleeping in crazy sounding capsule hotels! 
I was lucky enough to visit in late March, and the famous cherry blossoms were out in full bloom. People [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=homebuys.wordpress.com&blog=1884926&post=82&subd=homebuys&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Like a Kid in a Candy Shop!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hooray! Dunelm Mill have opened a store in my home town of Huddersfield and it&#8217;s HUGE! 
I went along on the opening day, full of anticipation, and was not disappointed. Spread over 2 floors, I was astounded by the scale of the place and delighted with the sheer array of homewares on offer, all in [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=homebuys.wordpress.com&blog=1884926&post=67&subd=homebuys&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Grow Your Own&#8230; Just not in the UK</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of my ambitions this Summer was to grow my own veg outside. Needless to say, the rainy British weather has had other ideas!
I did manage to grow some delicious chillies (though these were grown on the windowsill indoors) but my tomato plants failed dismally. To begin with, gusts of wind kept snapping the delicate branches, and then a cold snap [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=homebuys.wordpress.com&blog=1884926&post=74&subd=homebuys&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Current Objects of Desire</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Autumn/Winter catalogue from Laura Ashley came today, and I&#8217;m already in love with most of their new products!
As it&#8217;s been such a poor Summer, I&#8217;ve promised myself some cosy bedlinen to snuggle up to as the nights begin to draw in. The dreamy duck egg blue colour on this Coniston Throw attracted me immediately, but [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=homebuys.wordpress.com&blog=1884926&post=69&subd=homebuys&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Our New Bathroom &#8211; It&#8217;s Finished!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hooray! Our new bathroom is finished and I love, love love it! Our tiler, bless him, worked on it for 4 full days (including the weekend and the Bank Holiday) and admitted that it had been tougher than expected &#8211; the wonky walls reared their ugly heads and caused him a few problems &#8211; but [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=homebuys.wordpress.com&blog=1884926&post=64&subd=homebuys&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Our New Bathroom &#8211; Work Starts!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The tiler is booked, so this weekend we started the job of removing all the old tiles from our bathroom. Here&#8217;s a &#8216;before&#8217; photo:

Unfortunately the task of removing the tiles proved not to be as straightforward as we had hoped (it never is!). We bought our house in the height of the UK obsession with TV property [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=homebuys.wordpress.com&blog=1884926&post=62&subd=homebuys&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>A Little Bit of Luck</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Two nice things have happened to me this week. Firstly, I finally managed to find a tiler to do our bathroom! This, as you will have read in my earlier post, is a major achievement and I am very excited that the work is pencilled in to start in 2 weeks&#8217; time! I was very [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=homebuys.wordpress.com&blog=1884926&post=61&subd=homebuys&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Monsoon Home Collection at B&amp;Q</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With the Easter bank holiday being another washout (or in our case, a snow-out!) I decided that a trawl round the local retail park was in order. One of the stops was B&#38;Q, where I wanted to buy new taps for our bath. I was interested to discover that my local store stocks a range of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=homebuys.wordpress.com&blog=1884926&post=59&subd=homebuys&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>The Trouble with Tradesmen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have decided to re-style our tiny bathroom. It measures approx 8ft x 5ft so we don&#8217;t have a lot of space to play with! Currently, we have a half-size bath with the shower going over it, and some rather dreary dark blue mosaic-look tiles from floor to ceiling which make the room look even smaller.
Stage one &#8211; [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=homebuys.wordpress.com&blog=1884926&post=57&subd=homebuys&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Objects of Desire for March</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve booked my tickets for the Ideal Home Show at the end of this month, and hope that I will return from London with armfuls of shopping bags, full of homeware goodies!
In the meantime, my thoughts are focused on the following potential purchases&#8230;.I wonder whether I will give in to temptation and buy the lot?!
