52 Lists - Things That Remind You of Home

 
Lovely Home sign

 
Things that remind me of my mum and dad's home...
Piles of stuff and mess everywhere
(I grew up in the sort of house that wouldn't look out of place on those 'obsessive hoarders' TV programmes)
The sound of my brother screaming in excitement at some kids TV programme or someone at the front door
Takeaway wrappers in the kitchen (my mum just didn't cook)
 
 
Things that remind me of mother and father in law's home...
Potatoes cooking on the hob
Music from the 50s and 60s playing on a jukebox
Constantly being offered a cup of tea
 
 
Things that remind me of my own home...
A pile of washing up on the kitchen side (usually things our dishwasher has decided it doesn't want to wash...)
Radio 2 (or 6 Music if I have my choice) on the radio
The sound of banging and hammering coming from the garage
