OTTERSHAW PARK

The mansion

Hi guys!!

I'm sharing Ottershaw Park. This is the 18th building for my English Collection.

I decorated most of the house ground floor, for reference.

The interiors:

History of the house: In 1784 Thomas Sewell died and ownership of Ottershaw Park passed to his son, Thomas Bailey Heath Sewell, Lieutenant Colonel in the Surrey Fencible Cavalry. He sold it in 1796 to Edmund Boehm who improved the interior of the house and enlarged the estate by buying tracts of wasteland and allotments.

In about 1805 Boehm built, to the design of the eminent architect James Wyatt, two Grecian-style lodges at the new entrance to the estate from where a coach road ran to the mansion. The same architect may also have designed for Boehm the Gothic Chapel which originally served as a kitchen, bake house, dairy and pantry but was demolished in 1962.

Ottershaw Park was bought in 1819 by Major General Sir George Wood, a Lieutenant General in the Bengal Army. At this time the estate was largely self-supporting with stables, smithy, brew house, bake house, laundry, dairy, slaughter houses, ice house and two farms.

Sir George died in 1824 and the estate passed to his son, also named George, who in 1841 sold the property to Richard Crawshay who built a new bailiff’s house, farm buildings and brew house.

On Crawshay’s death in 1859 the estate was bought by Sir Thomas Edward Colebrooke MP, who made a number of alterations to the mansion. He also gave the money and land for the building of Christchurch and the first village school.

The estate was later sold to Lawrence James Baker, a stockbroker and MP who sold it in 1910 to the millionaire, Friedrich Gustav Jonathan Eckstein. Eckstein demolished the old mansion and replaced it with the present building designed by Niven & Wigglesworth which is more magnificent and much larger.

During World War I Eckstein made the building available to the British Red Cross as an Auxiliary Home Hospital but soon after the war sold it to Miss Susan Dora Cecilia Schintz, the daughter of a Swiss nitrates millionaire. Miss Schintz lost most of her sizeable inheritance through gifts to charity and bad investments and finally had to sell the estate. Much of it was acquired by the Ottershaw Park Investment Company (OPIC) which planned to develop the rim of the estate for housing. In 1932 the mansion and central part of the park became Ottershaw College, a boarding school for boys which for a short time was very successful, but eventually became insolvent and finally closed at the outbreak of World War II.

During the war The Vacuum Oil Company leased the mansion as offices and laboratories. From 1940 much of the surrounding land was either ploughed for crops or grazed as part of the war effort and the woodland areas were used by the 19 Vehicle Reserve Depot (VRD) for storing vehicles.

The Vacuum Oil Company moved back to London at the end of 1947 and Surrey County Council established Ottershaw School which was opened in 1948. The school prospered until 1980 when it closed due to financial constraints.

In 1982 the developers DeltaHome converted the mansion and other buildings into the present residential estate.

The garden:

More info: https://www.exploringsurreyspast.org.uk/themes/places/surrey/runnymede/ottershaw/ottershaw_park_estate/

The floorplan:

This house fits a 64x64  lot, but I think you can make it a 50x40 if you lose part of the garden and the conservatories on each side.

Piano nobile furnished, the rest is up to your liking.

Hope you like it.

Why IT Companies Are Crucial For Business Growth?

In today's fast-paced digital age, businesses must adapt to technological advancements to stay competitive. This is where IT companies in Christchurch come into play. 

These tech-savvy firms offer invaluable services that can transform how businesses operate, enhance productivity, and drive growth. 

Let's explore why partnering with IT companies in Christchurch is essential for your business growth.

Boosting Efficiency and Productivity

One of the primary benefits of working with IT companies in Christchurch is the significant boost in efficiency and productivity they provide. 

These companies streamline various business processes by implementing advanced software and automation tools, reducing manual labour and minimising errors. This allows your team to focus on core activities, ultimately increasing productivity.

Streamlined Communication

Effective communication is the backbone of any successful business. IT companies can set up robust communication systems, including emails, video conferencing, and instant messaging, ensuring seamless interaction among employees and clients. 

Enhanced communication leads to better collaboration, quicker decision-making, and improved problem-solving.

Enhancing Data Management and Security

Data is a critical asset for any business. Proper data management ensures your information is easily accessible and organised, aiding in better decision-making. 

IT companies in Christchurch offer efficient data storage, backup, and retrieval solutions. They also implement cutting-edge security measures to protect sensitive data from cyber threats.

Preventing Cyber Attacks

Cybersecurity is a growing concern for businesses of all sizes. IT companies in Christchurch employ state-of-the-art security protocols to safeguard your systems against cyber attacks. 

They conduct regular security audits, update software, and train employees on best practices, significantly reducing the risk of data breaches and other security threats.

Supporting Innovation and Growth

Innovation is vital to staying ahead in a competitive market. IT companies in Christchurch provide the technological infrastructure to support innovative ideas and projects. 

They offer custom software development, cloud computing services, and other advanced technologies that enable businesses to explore new opportunities and expand their horizons.

Facilitating Remote Work

The rise of remote work has made IT support more critical than ever. IT companies ensure your business has the tools and platforms for remote work, including secure access to company resources, virtual private networks (VPNs), and collaborative software. This flexibility attracts top talent and increases employee satisfaction and retention.

Cost-Effective Solutions

Many businesses assume that hiring IT companies in Christchurch is an expensive endeavour. 

However, these companies often provide cost-effective solutions that save money in the long run. 

Outsourcing IT services means you can avoid the high costs of maintaining an in-house IT department. 

Additionally, IT companies offer scalable services, allowing you to adjust your IT needs as your business grows.

Reducing Downtime

Downtime can be costly for any business. IT companies ensure your systems are always up and running, minimising downtime and associated costs. 

They offer proactive maintenance, regular updates, and quick response times to IT issues, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted business operations.

Conclusion

Partnering with IT companies in Christchurch is not just a smart move; it's a crucial step towards achieving sustainable business growth. 

These companies provide the technological expertise and support needed to enhance efficiency, improve data security, foster innovation, and drive your business forward. 

By leveraging their services, you can focus on what you do best—running and growing your business.

Incorporating IT companies into your business strategy is an investment in your future. So, why wait? Take the leap and watch your business thrive in the digital age. Source By: Why IT Companies Are Crucial For Business Growth?

Just found this old account, and rather than starting a new blog, I thought I’d just update this one.

There are a lot of blanks here, what with it being a 7 year old blog. It’s the same age as my niece. Weird.

The first post is always a doozy, but so first I’ll try to summarise.

Over the last 7 years, what are some key happenings in my life and mental health journey? Ok, life first. I don’t mean to brag, but imma brag a little here.

1) I’m still with the same amazing guy I was when I started this blog. Crazy, right? He’s been my rock. He’s not without his own demons, but, as our wedding dance song proclaims, he’s “perfectly broken” for me.

That’s right: after 8 years he finally PROPOSED. We’re tying the knot in November this year. It’s happening shortly after my sister marries HER forever human, in just over a month. Wedding fever, I love it!!

2) We are now 2 doggos richer. Teddy Roofsevelt is our smol white potate, our Floofen Subwoofen, our “oh lawd he comin” Mr. McChonkadonk… ok, you get it.

Elijah Woof is our aptly named skinny malinky scragamuffin, the #1 SnuggleMaster in our home and my personal (just quietly) favourite individual in the entire world, bar none. My fiancée is cool with this demotion in rank. I’m aware that secretly, Teddy is above me, too. They’re the best, and usually the joint top items on our daily 3 “gratefuls” list.

3) While in Auckland we bought our first house, waited for it to be built, lived there for a year or two while COVID ran rampant, and then promptly decided to move cities. Back home, (for me) to Christchurch. We currently live in a fabulous brand new 4 bedroom home with a yard and double glazing. We are supremely, unbelievably lucky. We sold just before the shit hit the proverbial housing market fan, and bought off the plans when Christchurch homes were still relatively affordable. This home and its central heating system regularly feature at number 2 of our list.

4) I believe was working in either customer service or my first “halfway to graphic designer” role at the time of the last post. I’ve come a long way from there, too.

Several unbelievably toxic workplaces, and a heroic amount of encouragement later…I’m now an experienced UX designer working for a massive insurance company. I’ve been there for 3 years and they love me. It’s a fantastic place to work and until a couple months ago, I’d say it held an almost unhealthy portion of my self-worth. I burnt out a couple times recently, giving more than I should have to it (much to the horror and dismay of my wonderful boss, who immediately sent me for compassionate leave when he found out)

It’s not that my work demands the extra effort to be successful; It’s that I’ve found something that I’m genuinely good at and love doing which actually earns me a living. It’s tricky to switch off sometimes when I find it so rewarding, especially when it’s the first time I’ve felt truly confident in my ability to do something wel in my whole life. For my ADHD brain, it is an absolutely perfect fit, scratching all the right places. I look forward to making the 10 step hallway commute to my home office to work. (Parter and I both work remotely for our respective employers in Auckland). I now earn a similar salary to my partner, who’s a senior developer.

Lately, though, there’s been a bit of conflict with one person in particular that’s been making it.. less enjoyable. I won’t go into detail here, but suffice to say I have learned to swing the pendulum back into a healthier realm of commitment. I’m not defined by JUST what I’m good at; work should always be “just work”, no matter how valued you feel, or how much you enjoy it. Ironically. It was a work colleague that told me this.

In terms of my medication and mental health journey, I think one of the main reasons I haven’t been updating here is because there’s not much to tell. I think I’ve had maybe one serious crash since my last entry, and it had a clear trigger. But then, I realise now that there’s actually ALWAYS been a clear trigger. Properly reconciling that fact has been the key to my salvation. When I look back on previous crashes, I see a part of me, a little voice with a big message, which would wail “why is this happening to me again? It’s too big! there’s nothing I could have done! This came out of nowhere!!”

Now, I see that that voice was less like a Truth with a capital T, and more like a toddler screaming in the corner, wanting to avoid taking any responsibility for what was happening to me.

Properly accepting my role and my actions (or rather, my INaction) has changed everything. I haven’t had a significant “crash” since, purely because I’m aware and on the lookout for the warning signs. When they occur, I can see them for what they are, and act accordingly: thus preventing a buildup to the point of no return. Sounds simple, right? Duh.

I wanna say, it’s not like I haven’t felt The Panic since then. Sometimes I still wake up in the middle of the night with the alarm bells ringing in my head.

“somethingswrongsomethingswrong”.

It still has that overwhelming power, that awful familiarity of being totally out of control.

But now, I have another voice that never existed before. One that says, with calm authority, “You know what this is. No, you can’t fight it, it’s happening. But you can survive it. Let it have its way, and it will pass.”

I’ll get the “surge” a few times, (y’all anxious cretins know what I mean). The surge, which sends my heart rate ricocheting into the stratosphere, filling me with familiar dread. But then, it will subside into JUST my heart pounding. Instead of the panic being everywhere, everything, my whole reality stretching into forever, it just becomes a pounding heart. Some sweaty palms, a touch of nausea. Those I can ignore. And then, it’s gone. I go back to sleep.

Most of the time, I don’t even wake my partner.

I’m still on medication. But you know what? I’m actually okay with this. I think wanting to get off them was a symptom that they weren’t doing what they were supposed to. I definitely blame my adhd, rather than anxiety, for the constant urge to “change things up” and be Med-free.

Late last year I went back to the specialist here in Christchurch to address my underlying issue: the ADHD. I was first prescribed with Ritalin again (standard practice) and I got the same results as last time. Like, I was the same scatterbrained, forgetful mess I was before, only F A S T E R. And more cheerful about it. My god, the euphoria. But it wasn’t addressing my core, pinball thoughts issue. I went back after a month to tell him it wasn’t for me.

Instead of giving me a non-stimulant option, he gave me a trial on Ritalin’s cool, easygoing cousin: dislexamphetamine. Yes, it’s an amphetamine, but it’s extremely slow release. Like, 10-14 hours, with a very slow onset and a very gradual taper. It was love at first swallow (sorry- that was obscene).

I can honestly say I’ve never felt so on top of my adhd, and, by association, my anxiety too. We added bupropion to the mix to help address my impulsive behaviour, and like a magic combo, all my problems seemed to disappear. The only catch is that it’s not subsidised in NZ yet. It’s in the works, but not yet. Thank god we have insurance.

I’ve been able to taper off my citalopram, and now I’m about 2 and a half weeks SSRI free. Still on the seroquel (50mg) and epilem (500mg) at night. I do hope to step down to 25mg seroquel at some point because GOD, the midnight munchies got me gooood. It’s really derailing my wedding weight loss goal. But not until after the op. I’m taking my own advice from a previous post: one change at a time, and maintaining routine.

To be fair, I AM cycling through a lesser version of all the venlafaxine withdrawals, but it’s tolerable, and they’re fading now. There’s no recurrence of anxiety, and I feel.. alive again. I tear up during stupid sappy movies, I feel this delicious sense of wellbeing when something goes right, and a flash of righteous indignance when someone does me wrong. I’m feeling it all, and instead of it being scary or overwhelming, it just feels…right, somehow. Comforting. And my libido is back!! I feel like a functioning human.

Don’t get me wrong: I was doing just fine before, but now, looking back, I can see just how wide the gulf is between “fine” and “genuinely good”.

One more piece of news. After two major endometriosis operations, (the latest of which was in 2021), every possible contraceptive method and their horrendous side effects, one awful vasovagal response to an IUD insertion and ten years of “we really DON’T want a baby, but what if we do at some point?” We finally made the decision. I’m getting a hysterectomy. My uterus, cervix and tubes have caused me literally nothing but pain and trouble since my first period. Honestly? I can’t wait to have them yanked out my vagayjay (and yes, that’s how they remove ‘em.)

One last operation on 25th of June, and I’ll never have to worry about painful periods, endo complications, constant GI problems or contraception stress ever again. Or anymore surgeries. And bonus… I’ll never bleed again.

I can also kiss goodbye to painful sex, since that pesky hypersensitive cervix of mine is going in the trash, too. It’s had an abnormal smear once before, so, as the doc said: “you can’t get cervical cancer without a cervix!”

Also, I won’t go through menopause because they’re leaving my ovaries in there, (albeit nothing else).

Ok but something weird: would you believe that people often get their baby factory bits stuffed into a jar and returned to them? Like, it’s an actual thing that they have to ask everyone because a shocking number of people want this. Like, what do they DO with it? Sit it on the mantelpiece next to grandma’s ashes?! Seems totally bizarre (and a little bit gross) to me. But to each their own.

After I picked my jaw up off the floor, I asked the nurse if instead of that, could I just donate it for research? She said no, because they have to pickle it in formaldehyde after chopping it up to check for disease. I mean, I’ve spent most of my adult like regularly opening my hoo-has to dozens of peering gynocologists. I’m fairly medi-curious, due to my multiple issues, but that still seems a little… dark.

Just imagine: you take it home, store it on some dark shelf and forget about it. A few years later you get a new boyfriend, who discovers it while clearing out the garage.

“Oh. Honey, look l, I can— stop screaming— I can explain…”

Aaaaanyway, I’ve been writing for several hours now. It’s okay: it counts as a hobby instead of doom scrolling. I’m doing quite a bit of creative writing again because it brings me genuine pleasure. Even got myself a ReMarkable tablet for work, stories and journaling. It’s been a game changer.

But now I think I’ll have a shower and do something vaguely productive.

Peace out, folks, and I hope to write again soon.

Moving into my flat!

I moved into my flat on Monday, December 18 with my flatmate Lauren, and needed to sort out at least the bare minimum of furniture! I managed to get a bed dropped off that day and took myself on a bus ride across town to KMart to get some sheets, pillows, hangers, and more. I hung up the only decorations I had (the Christmas garland mom sent with me and the Christmas pictures I colored a few days before) so that the walls weren't bare, unpacked all my things, and settled in.

This first week, I explored the area around me. One such area is the Avonside Red Zone, which has become one of my go-to walking areas. The red zone is an area of Christchurch where the land was deemed unsafe to build on post-earthquake. In the area where I tend to walk, there are still streets where you can see the remnants of driveways and make out the outline of the former property.

Along with the red zone, I still spent a bunch of time exploring the botanic gardens! Sometimes I feel like I took multiple pictures of the same flowers and bushes over multiple days, but it's so hard to capture the vibrance!

We have regular feline visitors at our flat. Sometimes they stay outside and sometimes they just stroll right in. Lauren is allergic to cats, so she ended up getting one of those magnetic screens in the hope that it would keep them out when the door is open for the breeze. Still, sometimes, like Batman below, they break right through and end up in the house.

One day, after a job interview, I also stopped at a cat cafe and got to hang out with a few Bindi look-alikes!

Spent a bit of time just settling in and getting ready for Christmas. I tried to apply for tons of jobs, but most companies are closed for at least two to four weeks around Christmas, so it didn't pan out to much. But the Christmas decorations were pretty!

Everything You Have To Know About Air Conditioner Cleaning & Maintenance: Expert Guide

Neglecting anAir Conditioner Cleaning Services Christchurch can cause various issues including high energy bills, poor indoor air quality, and decreased efficiency.

Why Does Your AC Need Maintenance?

Why should you choose an Hvac Cleaning Company in Christchurch for AC maintenance? If you are confused about this, you have to know the common issues that can be faced due to neglecting air conditioner maintenance:

Decreased Efficiency: Lack of maintenance and cleaning can force your AC to work harder to cool your home. This results in increased utility bills due to energy consumption.

High Repairing Cost: Neglecting maintenance can lead to higher repair costs.

Considerations of Air Conditioner Maintenance

There are some crucial areas that you have to focus on while cleaning your air conditioner. Whether you hire professionals or do it yourself, take care of these considerations:

?     AC units have filters that remove dust from the air. Filters force an air conditioner unit to work harder to cool the area. That means it needs more energy to work.

Change Filters:

If you have a central AC unit, checking filters every 30-60 days is essential. A clogged filter can reduce the work efficiency of the unit. In fact, it can decrease your house’s indoor air quality. If you have kids, changing the filter is necessary every month.

On the other hand, if you don’t have kids or pets or don’t welcome too many guests, you can change the filters every three to four months depending on weather conditions.

Clean the Condenser Unit:

Cleaning the condenser unit regularly is essential for all central AC unit owners. However, the good part is it can be done once a year. Still, it depends on your area’s weather conditions and your house’s environment. As per many home improvement experts, cleaning the condenser unit is necessary to keep your home surrounding debris-free.

Blockage Removing:

As mentioned above, an AC unit can face issues due to uncertain blockage. In this case, checking these minor issues is essential to improve the system’s lifespan. Make sure nothing is blocking the cooling system as it will hinder the airflow.

Know When to Call an Expert:

Sure, you can maintain your AC unit by following some easy steps. However, some critical issues can be only solved by an expert. Keep checking the minor issues and get help from the best Hvac Cleaning Specialist Christchurch. While some basic tasks can be done at home, an air conditioner cleaning technician has the proper equipment to ensure the cooling system’s health.
