YL is dog sitting (staying at the house). I got this text.
Question: If someone was staying at your house on their own for 2 weeks what might they find strange?
I think someone would be curious about the amount of speakers and disco lights here.
Bed in a non-bedroom room because of upcoming works.
The random tent inside. Either to be used as emergency ringworm cat accommodation or I can sit or sleep in there to save on heating bills this winter.

Me, because I never actually left and I'm watching them from the closet
Well I also don't have a toaster (I use a cast iron griddle instead)
Your cupboards would be rifled through.
Absence of a tv.
What a weird layout the joint is, it's a whole lot of renovations cobbled together. It's a rabbit warren in a trenchcoat ๐. Maybe also all the weird noises and stuff in the main part of the house. But mainly the quantity of art and craft supplies crammed into my part of the house, a fairly small space. I've got enough stuff here to power a small primary school ๐
Giant disco ball in the entry area.
Yep. This would confuse. Also the sex room extension.
I have been thinking way too much about this sex room thing lately and it just seems inherently creepy to me.
You gotta watch the show. Some of the rooms were done nice if you don't look at what's hanging on the walls.
No microwave. Number of plastic dinosaurs? Number of things that are not black? Ask Witchy I guess ๐บ
Dinosaurs are not strange. Extinct, yes. Strange, no. At least for anyone that has ever had children in the house plastic dinos are normal.
