Well last night at the LVG do was fun.  Great turn-out and lots of people there to chat to.  Unfortunately I couldn't dance quite as much as I'd have liked due to impractical footwear - my choice, they look great but I have to make some sacrifices! :-)

Today not so fun.  Been getting a bit concerned about damp in my wardrobe, especially when I found my lovely leather bodice top all covered in mould yesterday. :-(  Have spent the morning emptying the wardrobe to investigate and it does not look good.
Now we have an entire flat filled with my clothes (how the hell did they all fit in the wardrobe!) and I'm typing to the sound of Rob hacking away at all the plasterwork.  
Its a bit depressing - anyone who's been to our flat will know just how proud we are of our bedroom decor, so it is pretty painful to be forced to do this work now.  Just hope that  we don't find any horrors behind the plasterwork requiring more damage and expense.

Yes, I saw Thunders post about Raven. Sorry to hear that its the last one! Unfortunately we won't be able to make it as we are in minor-chaos in the flat, don't think it will be cleared up in time to go out tonight! :-(

See you soon!

Glad you had a good time, thanks for the lift and waiting for us to pack up Martin's kit - dont know how we would have got back with the balloons and flowers otherwise ;-)=

No worries, it was on our way! :-) I'm sure Audrey's flat is full of the smell of dead flowers now!

I had mold in the wardrobe once. Truly horrible! Hope it's not too bad!

I think its just serious condensation, so at least there are no structural issues. However, how we fix this remains to be seen, as there appears to be no obvious cure for condensation. :-(

Maybe a dehumidifer might help?

I bought a strange little plastic box (from Woolworths for a few quid) that had some powder in it that absorbed moisture. I was skeptical about it, but after a month or so, the box was full of water, so I suppose it worked. Perhaps that would help?

Yes, we're going to look for something like that, the only concern is that it needs to be something with a closed top so that the granules don't get knocked out by the clothes (I guess a less packed out wardrobe would help ventilation too!)
