Leaving Glencoe, blue door goes red.

I took advantage of the warm dry weather at the weekend and a day off on Monday to repaint and refurbish our front door. Old blue door on the left, shiny new red door on the right. In the process I removed the ‘Glencoe’ house name sign from above the door — not because we dislike it but because it’s stopping a lot of light from entering our somewhat dingy hall.

I’m also looking forward to answering the door without being called Mr Noakes, and without having to reassure confused delivery personnel that yes, I am Mr Simmons, even though the door says otherwise.

And before you ask the colour is ‘Wild berries’.

P.S. We now have a spare letter plate with the name ‘J.K. Noakes’, anyone know someone with the name J.K. Noakes? Methinks ebay beckons.
