John Fisher a builder and his wife Elizabeth wanted more living space so they left their small flat for an old 40-metre-high castle tower. They have spent five years turning it into a beautiful home with six floors winning three architectural prizes. I love the space and being private Elizabeth says. You feel separated from the world. If I m in the kitchen which is 25 metres above the ground floor and the doorbell rings I don t have to answer it because visitors can t see I m in There are 142 steps to the top so I go up and down five or six times a day it s very good exercise But having to carry heavy things to the top is terrible so I never buy two bags of shopping from the supermarket at a time. Apart from that it s a brilliant place to live. When we first saw the place I asked my father s advice about buying it because we couldn t decide. After paying for it we were a bit worried because it looked awful. But we really loved it and knew how we wanted it to look. Living here can be difficult - yesterday I climbed a four-metre ladder to clean the windows. But when you stand on the roof you can see all the way out to sea on a clear day and that s a wonderful experience. I m really glad we moved. 1. What is the writer trying to do in the text A.
