No but it's flat now, we had the (badly) Artexed ceiling overboarded and skimmed so it has been a long job not helped by my 'cripple' status and the fact I can only do 'stuff' for a couple of hours a day before the pain in my bad leg becomes too much and I have to stop. :sad:

The fact that the Dining room is also home to my HiFi and all the LPs/CDs/Tapes/Minidiscs etc didn't help, it took 3 days to empty the room.
Sorry to hear that. Take care.:hugs:

The council allowed residents to keep the blue box. It is quite sturdy. Some of the council's suggestions included possibly reusing it as a flower pot.
We have an old recycling box, from life before 4 wheelie bins. It is now our 'safe place ' for parcels.
 
We just had an Australian come to do a water survey! :eek: He was a nice chap. Schrodie thought he would also like to join in with his game as he found an aluminium ball in his boots when he went to put them on! He almost had one in his bag but I caught him before he could do it.
We told him as he left that he is allowed to keep any toys he might find in his bag.

Spooky! I am doing the same, and trying to throw out some things. :unsure:

I just made all this lot for my front door:

Well, OK, I didn't make the monkey-tail handle, but the lock box and straps are my work.

Getting the royal run around concerning my claim. Admiral saying they can't find my bank details - a week ON, Now issuing a cheque. Admiral and I bank with Lloyds, checked and Admiral can use Faster Payments between accountds

Leigh Day have been crap in the last year TBF, it's taken almost a year since my final medical to get the claim together (delays from specialist etc etc) and then Admiral wont negotiate. The stress has been horrible, and now they are messing about even more. That will be yet another week of interest they make on the money. Please don't ever get knocked off your bikes, the legal system is incredibly stressful. I'm just going to beat up the next driver who hurts me, then ride off - you don't get recompense.

I'll be glad when this is behind me.

I got the wheel clamp when it went similar(pear shaped) for me.

You hit the next driver who hurts you, you'll be the one being done. Five minutes of "satisfaction" down the drain.
