Stuck at home in lockdown, Rob and Lis keep spotting repairs, and the house is becoming a money pit. The neighbour with a front-row view of their collapsing fence has been dropping hints. Then they compare building in England with Bogotá, where Lis's grandmother and uncles once finished a house with no permits. So what happened to the architect's plans for the family flat once Lis's sister walked in and moved a wall?
