House and home

Starting again - what would you do differently?

My DS1 and family are returning from the States soon. They are selling off as much as they can of their household goods, especially, of course, the electrical appliances which all run on 110V over there.

I find the thought quite exciting - being able to kit out a household practically from scratch.

What would you advise, or even do yourself, given the chance?

I have already raved about a Thermomix to replace at least half a dozen kitchen gadgets. (This is not advertising!- I don't have one myself but only ever hear good things about them. They are big here in Germany.)

Also I really love the idea of those space-saving collapsible buckets and washing baskets.

I may pass on some suggestions....

Well, I wouldn't buy this house for a start......
