Yep totally agree no need for a tv in the bedroom at 2 years plus it looks bloody awful above the grey chalkboard ! Just such a mess !!

Interesting. Most kids I know do have one.
Different strokes for different folks huh
Looking at the set up I’d say it will be used like a playroom aswell as bedroom & plenty of people would put TVs in regardless of age.
oooooo what’s wrong with the house? Did I miss something on here ????I just don't get why she bought that house. Why would you choose to buy a house that's unmortgageable. If she ever wants to sell it there's not a lot of people who can pay cash for a house that has some kind of issue and why would they want to? She would have been much better buying something more modern and painting it grey as that seems to be more her thing
well if Joe is sleeping in there then she should definitely child proof it
The children on Mumsnet don’t know what a television is! They are allowed to listen to some classical music, while eating carrot batons dipped in home made hummus, to relax
I’m not a fan of the room decor, it’s underwhelming. That shade of Grey is bland and over used in the room. It all looks a bit gimmicky with the pandas and quote, and not suited to the house. The chalk board and TV doesn’t work as the chalk board is the same colour as the room paint so looks like a random square of paint.
I would have loved to see some character or something a bit classic but with some modern touches. What it could have been with those windows and that fireplace. Putting cheap labelled ikea furniture under the window just takes away from them.

I live in the NW and get a saveloy every time! Yum
could you stop peeping in to my lounge please? Thank you.The children on Mumsnet don’t know what a television is! They are allowed to listen to some classical music, while eating carrot batons dipped in home made hummus, to relax
The tv is for Joe to watch game show repeats to prep for his next hard day of work
i think one or both of the boys will end up in Rex’s room. I bet the other upstairs rooms are being set up off camera & they’ll use the annexe for fun
Yep, that Essex favourite the saveloy. And the big gherkins are known as wallys
Also
Whoever said that there's no risk of Rex falling out of that bed cos Joe is the one mainly sleeping in it, I bet that's spot on. Explains why she put a single bed in there rather than using his old cot (which I think someone said converts to a toddler bed). Also explains why she can take her time with the older boys rooms (as they don't actually need to sleep in them!)
And I agree the room is a monochrome mess. I would have taken the fireplace out (it's not original, she's not going to use it, and all those sharp edges in a kids bedroom make me wince), knocked it back to the brick hearth, put in a nice oak mantle. Replaced the carpet for something stain resistant in a neutral colour because floorboards are both cold underfoot for little feet and painful if you fall onto, got rid of those awful wardrobes and the stick on tiles. And just decorated it any colour other than grey/ black/ white.
Though tbh I would have made that room the older boys and not Rex's, and given Rex one of the other smaller upstairs rooms. But of course that would be less gram- able.

That supermarket sweep would need a serious amount of planning!
Can someone help me figure out how they can be moved into that house but theres no beds or furniture in the boys rooms. So where do they sleep.
Mine were never allowed tv in their room until were at university. One tv in the house in the living room, never caused any issues with anyone. Giving a 2 year old a tv is utterly ridiculous.
She's not pregnant shes after attention it's so blatant!!!!
I've never know anyone do this so often... "oh why do I feel so tired" "oh why do I feel sick" ohhhh I keep getting sore titties" duck off with your attention seeking and grow up
