Cracked paint

I think I put my foot in it a bit when I took this photograph.  I went up to Thornhill to meet a friend for coffee and afterwards we went for a walk up and down the main street.  We passed a house with a for sale sign and some very chipped paint work and which I assumed was empty.  After taking the photograph a young boy came along followed by his mother, who smiled at me and then got the keys out for this house and they both went in.  Oops.
