So a couple of weeks ago, my heart sunk when the Peter House came up for sale, because there was no way in hell I could buy it, and I knew that there were few people who shared my appreciation of wonkiness especially when it came to houses. ANd I knew that soon the Peter House would be no more.
Today I went and saw the Peter house in it's Open for Inspection. Because I had to, because I knew soon it would be gone forever.
I couldn't stop laughing because inside it lived up to it's wonky exterior. The stairs were on a slant, and going up them you felt sea sick, and one of the bedrooms upstairs had a slightly rocky feel. Even the toilet was wonky.
It was too wonderful to be true. SO I have no choice but to enter the lottery this week. Because
it's my only shot.
IF only , if only
Happy Saturday.

surely the house of wonk deserves heritage listing... hope it somehow survives...
I've got a funny feeling in my chest for you. I understand how you can feel this way for such a house. A few nursery rhymes are whizzing round my head.
It's only hope is that someone like you buys it.

Wow - it has sooo much character that house!! I'd love one of those ceiling maids too! Classic.
if ever there was a house for you than this little bit of treasure would definitely be it.
how sad that who ever buys it though will not appreciate it's wonkiness & decides appartments are much better.
fingers crossed for...goooo LOTTO!!
