my housemates and I convened – when one could still do such things – to discuss the redecoration of the communal areas of our shared home.
Another was held to choose the furniture and artwork, all to be provided by us, that would decorate our refurbed interior.I was offering a number of late-18th and early 19th-century family portraits, perfectly suited to our Georgian property, and a long, low antique cabinet, that would look good and provide a lot of much-needed storage space.
