The world is our lobster..........

Have spent a lazy Sunday morning browsing the interweb looking at alternative lifestyles.

Having made a start on the whole downsizing/de-cluttering/minimising side of things, it's time to start some serious thinking about options, ranging from the sublime to the frankly ridiculous.

There's something very appealing about a quirky little cottage with roses round the door, but equally, my questing spirit is drawn to more strange and unusual lifestyle choices.

Like this for instance.............

Now that is my idea of a lovely life. Where would your kiln go though?

Remember, when you do find something and move you can do another clear out. Doesn't all have to be done just now.

I just had a look at the link Sandra. I bet that cost a small fortune to fit out, but it is stunning. If you do opt for life on the water, make sure you get small dog a life jacket.. But then again Joyce is right where would you put your kiln and your work room..

Surprisingly Debbie, commissioning your own narrow boat costs in the region of £1500 per foot. Bear in mind that everything is in a smaller scale... a room sized kitchen in that spec would cost many £1000s, but an area only a few feet long the cost is much less.

You're both right though...the kiln would have to go, however it would be possible to set aside an area as a workroom.

Anyway, this is just one of the many options we're looking at. One of the more adventurous and off the wall ones admittedly...

Forgot to say...small dog already has a very natty life jacket for nautical outings
