    :(

    The farmhouse sheds next door to Parents were burgled last week :mad:

    They live in quite a remote place with only 3 houses in area, the drive way to farmhouse is opposite their front door.

    :) and they have CCTV in porch :)
    But have to wait for Dad to get better to be able to view it...

    Good afternoon Elite :hello:

    It started sunny here this morning, overcast and very breezy now. And as I spoke the sun popped out. Oh well, it's going to be that sort of day :rotfl:

    Job for today has been shredding newspapers to take to the local hedgehog rescue. They do a brilliant job running the rescue without any funding. The man and woman who run it both work full time and use their own cash along with donations to run the rescue. Not an easy job with medines to buy off treatments and all the other items needed.

    So Easter weekend is over and we move back into the usual routine of the grindstone of work for some, running a home and childcare for others, and even a few doing all of these things. I count myself so lucky that I am free of all of them, apart from occasional childcare and dog care :)

    NSD for me today :T


    Hugs to the Elite who are poorly or low in spirit, you're in my thoughts xx
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Noooo, that's a massive worry for your parents that they don't need. Hopefully their cctv will have the information that the police need so the theiving so and so s get caught pretty quick :mad:

    I am experiencing this too now on CS as Cadbury eggs have gone no matter who is signing in after claiming on one account :( - I wonder if you are fine to upload to all if you do it straight away, but once processed it is removed/one offer per device? It doesn't seem to have been implemented on CoS yet but it is sure to follow :(.

    Presumably it only goes away once it's tracked into your account because I claimed 3 accounts on 1 device one after the other

    Not sure about the paint mhoc, but how are the pine doors finished? If they are waxed they would probably take more rubbing down than varnished ones, and with pine I would think they would be waxed.

    I think your first step should be to find out how to best remove the current finish.

    Oh, and I varnished my kitchen cupboard doors in the garden, ended up with one or two bits stuck in the varnish :eek:

    Just varnish I think but they are as they came, no extra coats on them and no wax but they are solid pine. I was hoping to just do a sand down, prime and paint job.
    I could practice with a drawer front first to see what the final look would be.
