I lived for six years in one in Lichfield when my son was small and then for seventeen years in one in Wolverhampton when I was teaching there.<br />But my Physio speaks of "bungalow legs", saying I must keep the muscles in my legs strong by walking up hill (or climbing stairs).The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-78130014446345739772017-05-20T05:37:11.878-07:002017-05-20T05:37:11.878-07:00I think it was perfect.

For the first 6 months I was rather scared of it but we made friends in the end and everything I cooked in or on it, tasted wonderful. It was so comforting on cold winter mornings and I can understand your reluctance to part with it, but how fortunate your purchasers are that you persevered and found a replacement part to keep it looking good.<br />I hope your move goes to plan - it is good that you will still be near enough to your friends for them to visit regularly.xxHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-66332685169637169972017-05-20T02:04:37.761-07:002017-05-20T02:04:37.761-07:00I bet the bungalow will have many advantages for y...I bet the bungalow will have many advantages for you.
