Tell me about it! Ours was a bit like that. The previous owner turned out to be a bodger who seemed to think everything could be done with the aid of some chewing gum and a bit of string. We're slowly putting things right and the place is looking much better now, thank goodness.
We bought ours long distance, too, with the aid of Taffy's eyes. I think we knew before we got there that there would be a heap of work to do on it. Wouldn't have minded so much if we'd got it for a good price.
