The
above shots are of the two smaller windows in the spare room.
Previously, they were blocked by 'family photographs' rather than
curtains, but I did not want to have out of date photos of myself and
son lying around the spare room - while we are alive right now and
living in this home for REAL!
This
lump with a hole in is where the TV aeriel comes thru into the house,
as this room was formerly the lounge, or 'sitting room' as my parents
called it during my childhood. Dad having been a TVaholic, moved
into this room when unable to handle the stairs and the room still
had the TV in situ until his death.
I
do not watch TV at all - and have only watched a few movies on TV since
the 2007 Superbowl, when I officially gave up TV. My son did watch TV -
mostly movies and soccer - but as he was to be the only user and did
not wish to pay for a TV licence, I gave the TV and set top box away and
our household has NO TV!
Therefore
this lump on the sill - and the lead coming thru the window that
replaced the original aeriel socket at some stage were useless. I
hacked off the cable, but have yet to remove the hooks that held it in
place or the lump. Here is a shot after the net curtains were
replaced - and of the remaining items in the spare room. As you can
see - not enough stuff left to prevent me from tackling the
decorating any longer!
