    What an excellent idea! As a temporary solution I'd definitely go for the tent. If it moves along the garage process a little bit quicker, and gives you some extra space... go for it!

    If your sister wants any de-cluttering practice KC, you know where to send her. Even got some temporary al-fresco accommodation she can have if she wants to stay a while!

    Car broke last night.:mad: On my way to work there was a rather nasty noise, and turns out there's something hanging from the bottom dragging along the ground. It's not the exhaust, but a cylindrical plastic thing about a foot long with tubes/wired coming into it from the front. Only thing we can think of is something to do with the aircon. Car goes in for a service on Tues anyway so we'll leave it till then but I could really use it being a simple repair rather than a scratch-the-backside-and-pick-the-largest-number-you-think-you-can-get-away-with job.

    I'm hoping Greg will stay in bed just long enough for me to put together a list of things to do today.

    Ye gods and little fishes ... that doesn't sound very good.

    Um, I doubt sis will actually want to do it right now :) but if she freaks about money again I may well run it by her for a laugh - she lives on the border of Sussex and Kent after all, there's a lot of rich people round there still!

    Definitely...lots of money=lots of household tat.

    Just uploading loads of photos to Photobox (yet another new account, £4 cashback and 40 free prints. Are they stupid?). I'll post a few of the boys on here when they're done, which will be another flippin 47 minutes according to the box onscreen. And I'm supposedly on 8MBPS broadband...hmmm...
