Excuse to have a bit of a knees up

So it's taken us about 4 months to get our flat cleaned up, colourful and in creative working order, and to celebrate we're throwing a little house party and putting our respective paintings/photos on the walls. I wouldn't quite call it an exhibition as there's not enough white walls and grey floors, more of a house party really...
