That's the way. Roll out the sh*te excuses.

If she gets any worse I'm going to learn how to use that thing in the corner with the big glass dog bowl on the front.

On the plus side, you'd never lose a sock again.

Over 3 year now, & my sock loss count is still zero.

Pretty amazing actually. Usually I'm the one who "makes all the mess".

Washing isn't even piling up aside from flannels and towels. Youngest tested negative and ******** off to her mates leaving unwashed frying pans in her wake. Not even venturing into her room for the post Covid clean up. Wife and son have been zonked out ill for the last week eating very little etc.

I've done my bit and fed / watered them. Kitchen is tidy with the dishwasher loaded as the plates etc are used and put on when full. Unloaded and put away when done. All surfaces are cleared and sanitised, ditto door handles and light switches. I've even cleaned the bog twice, well showed it the brush.

Do I get any brownie points? Nada! She summoned the energy to moan I hadn't watered certain of her plants. Bonus really 'cos I haven't watered any!

Are you/they ducting the leccy? I would, along with a separate duct for a Cat-6 etc.

Looks like they can afford it!

If my summerhouse was 250m away it would be in the bloke at the end of the streets garden, so I could save myself a few bob and just tap into his lecky.

He might have something to say about it mind.

No, they just wanted a service trench and the pipes/cable put in, my lads are there tomorrow to reinstate and then we are tearing up the whole lawn to install loads of land drains.

Today I made amends! Went over yesterday's crap rendering. Done it how I've always done it this time. Sloshed the cracked render with 5:1 PVA (well found a part 5L of No Nonsense wood glue).

Mixed the new render 4:1 builders / opc, wetted with the PVA mix. Same old, opened cement.

Let it go off a bit and wood floated it.

I spent 8 hrs in the back of an ambulance at A&E a few weeks ago with an acute small bowel infection where it joins the stomach ........rather ill to say theleast . They had to rush me into the pit stop room seven times to clean me up . Can thoroughly recommend elastic knickers called " Nets" to hold incontinence pads in place .


Advised by the A&E specialist doctor to get hold of Dioralyte electrolitic fluid replacement drinks to help replace lost salts & chemicals as a result of evacuations , now more important in this warmer weather before you all start getting serious drops in your blood pressures & flaking out . Both Alison & I are sipping half a 200 ml glass of the stuff each as a matter of course every day & feel much better for it.

Get well soon and don't cough or sneeze

S'wot I did 17 yrs ago plus a proper underground STILWA 8 pair phone wire Mobile were crap back then plus I wanted the line to be reasonably secure , the cat 6 went into 15 mm unrolled alkathene water pipe . I used a vacuum to suck the mouse through the pipe with 80 lb Dacron fishing line tied on it's tail then pulled the cable through with it

I never actually think about it, that's one of the smaller properties we get to work in
