What I can't understand is, why estate agents think nice kitchens and
(extra)well kept gardens will sell a home better.

Probably because of experience.

I thought it is well known that nearly everyone who moves into a property
wants to put their identity on it as soon as possible. I know of one persson
who had the kitchen all remodelled etc and then upon completion didn't like
the colour and started again !

I dread the idea of redoing our kitchen. I've lived with the previous
owners' incredibly cheap B&Q basic kitchen for the past eleven years.

I have to confess that my small kitchen was
last painted 40 years ago (although its been washed since) and all the
fitments are pre 1963 !

You seem to be arguing against yourself here :-)

The message
from Kay Easton contains these words:


What to you do with the keen gardener with out of control 4 year old
twins?

Take the lid off the comfrey-tea barrel.

And aren't all keen gardeners weird as hell?

We're normal, Kay. It's the rest of the world that's weird.
