Thanks for the update Mike, I am in tears again!

You have such a fab way of writing, you must be able to put it to better use than us!

And as for the hint about Sussex Paul, me thinks you are saying it aint Nasty Bridle but someone special..... More hints needed as I am not that clever after a hard day in the office :mad:

Maty

I can think of no better use than keeping in touch with those, like me, who cannot be there...

Unless it was something paid for, naturally. You wouldn't see me for dust. (Well I still have a huge mortgage and no income... but who knows, a couple of months of warmth, home cooked food, non-toxic wall coatings and none of Neville's leavings in the biscuits, I hope to be back on the freelance market.)

Of course, they didn't have bathrooms in the age your cottage was built, didn't anyone tell you that they were taking it back to its original state???

Seriously, have you ever thought of writing articles for newspapers or magazines? Mike's slant on life or the weeks events?

It is always a pleasure to read what you have written, your humour shines through, it is very well written and you come across so well.

Yeah but the skip doesn't need to come out again does it! I mean I was a bit surprised at first, as not everyone has a skip in their lounge as a feature but, you know? It may catch on.

Our Mike, a trend setter!

I thought that was quite original. It wouldn't have fitted in our place but the way they did it was quite ingenious. Sanding it must have made a heck of a noise (are they leaving it gleaming - 'cos Mike's boys will have to spend Saturday mornings polishing it like I used to with our dining room chairs when I was a kid... poor them ) (Unless they laquer it somehow? Or did they paint it to fit in with the rest of the colours?)
I looooved the pics of the shininess emerging anyway can't remember who posted them but someone shares my sense of humour so thanks

Actualy I know plenty, and I have a 16GB card in my phone that just happens to have captured a fair bit of video footage (at DVD quality) of the daily happenings so far.

However if I was to make you privy to my knowledge of what's happening, or indeed allow you to see any of that footage - I am afraid I would have to kill you (all in the name of national security of course).

KillerWatt, have you forgotten already that Maty and I have threatened you with grevious bodily harm if you don't fess up to some news for the newsletter.

Be very afraid.....:cool:

If his excuse is that he is working 24/7 to make sure all is ready for the reveal on the 18th he MAY be forgiven.

Otherwise Killerwatt, send MW a PM with an update for the newsletter NOW please

There are peeps, very important to this thread, that cannot be part of the reveal so MW is doing a sterling job of keeping them involved with her newsletter.

They deserve it :j

Donny - you should have mentioned they are building one at the end of the garden - disguised as a Hen House and that wont have any lighting if KillerWatt doesn't get his a***e in gear and tell me whats going on - he'll be 'unable' to put up all those fancy lights - BTW who the dickens needs dimmer switches in the bathroom - paint the loo seat (which you will be lifting) a neon yellow and you can see it in the dark. Another cost cutting idea sorted.....:T

MatyMoo

MW you should patent your luminous/glow in the dark loo seat idea :rotfl:

Aw Mike... your post last night is so poignant, you have even sobered me up after thinking about the skip...

As I said, ingenious chaps.

Don't you DARE show the little snoop a thing before the reveal!

You can run, but you can't hide! We'll getcha!
