One of the first things we did was to put it facing the little window at the back, which overlooks the yard and when I had horses, I could see them in their stables as I was washing up.<br /><br />That's a lovely kitchen you have and very tidy for a student kitchen!! My daughter is one of 6 sharing a student apartment too, but their kitchen doubles as a sitting room too, with a big tv on the wall.
