You not going to give it a go?We bought a 2 seater garden chair. It arrived today......in a box. MR WD is shaking his head, tutting, and making rather unpleasant comments at the moments that cannot be repeated...
He is not a happy bunny, and i can see this thing ending up in the bin very, very soon.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Hell no. I can hardly take the mick out of Mr WD if i can't do it, so best leave him to it.

The chair has finally been put together. Was it worth it? Probably not. Then again nothing is cheap these days. I am just glad we got it in a sale and didn't have to pay full price. It def would not have been worth it then. And we seem to have quite a few bits left over as well which is rather worrying.
I always seem to find that when that happens to me I give it a few days, can't find what the "extra" bits are for so bin them. The day after the bin's emptied something happens and I see what those "extras" we're for AAGGHH .
I am waiting to phone the flight line for a sunrise hot air balloon ride to see if the flight is taking place tomorrow morning. This is the 6th time of booking over the last two years and it has been cancelled each time because of unfavourable weather conditions.

No compensation for delayed flight?I am waiting to phone the flight line for a sunrise hot air balloon ride to see if the flight is taking place tomorrow morning. This is the 6th time of booking over the last two years and it has been cancelled each time because of unfavourable weather conditions.

It's so deflating when that happens.
Bit overcast and cooler today, I am off to take my older brother fishing, his choice and certainly not mine. He is 23 years older than me and I try and get few hours together every month or so. This is a guy who made sure I got no inheritance from the sale of the family house, am I mad or forgiving.

Big changes today.
7.5 ton van with some of sons furniture leaves our drive after 7 days. Lots of clutter, sorry, sons family's other stuff leaves our 2 bed bungalow. 2 grandsons and 1 grandaughter go to new home.
We moved 50 miles to live near our son and family 12 years ago. There have been a few reasons why this turned out to be an excellent idea. However he and daughter in law have decided to move about 15 miles away and he's now suggesting we move too. I feel we're now living somewhere we wouldn't have chosen. Home town of Kings Lynn has changed so much it's no longer "home". So feel a bit p.....d off and no way are we following him.
Comments would be appreciated.

It must be hard and a bit annoying that you made a move to be closer to them and now they are moving away and hope maybe expect? You to move as well, especially as you wouldn't have chosen that place. Always a difficult choice, but do you really want the hassle of moving again?
Personally i wouldn't. If you are happy where you are then stay and enjoy. Kids eh?
