    Absolutely yes and yes. But we are missing a few vital components! :)

    Missing?

    Vital?

    Components?


    Few?


    I won't sleep now.

    Watched three old episodes and not feeling any more relaxed. Au contraire.

  • Best wishes for tomorrow. Tonight's more important - get some beauty sleep - that's an order! Not saying you need it but it would be good to be awake tomorrow!:D

    Checklist:
    Hankies (as it'll probably be emotional)
    Watch (so you're not late)
    Teabags (all will become clear)
    Crib sheet (for possible occasions when you're rendered speechless by the tartan :eek: paint):
    - It's lovely
    - It's beautiful
    - Wow!
    - Oh. My. Gawd!
    - I can't believe it!
    - It's just what I always wanted (breaking into song optional)
    - I saw something just like that in Tate Britain/Harvey Nicks/Harrods
    - How did you know?

    Then later on:
    I would like to take this opportunity to thank my vet, my dermatologist, my hairdresser and everyone else who knows me (blow kisses, wave at everyone, flick hair & leave the stage)

    Finally kick everyone out, put the kettle on (did you remember the teabags?) & put your feel up. You're home.

    ENJOY!

    Lucky you Happy - wonder how things are in Littlehampton and if the weather is warm there. The wind is making it so cold here. Hope you are watching things from the garden.........

    The weather was warm. The work was going well and I can't believe you told them you like leopardskin wallpaper!

    Box of Kleenex? - you may need a crate!

    I am tired - I was cleaning your bathroom this afternoon!

    Most of the best days of my life have involved a box of Kleenex.

    Thank you for cleaning my bathroom. I feel we now have a special bond...

    Morning all, been lurking and not posting, but as today is a very special day I just wanted to log on and say good luck Mike.

    Crikey Mike has a bathroom :eek::eek:

    Finally kick everyone out, put the kettle on (did you remember the teabags?) & put your feel up. You're home.

    ENJOY!


    I'd second the enjoy. I can't imagine how you'll feel today but if it's half as good as the feeling on this thread you'll be pretty darn pleased

    :j yippee, it's today :j

    Hope you get all you were hoping for Mike (plus all the stuff you weren't hoping for, and couldn't have dreamt of, probably because silver skips & tartan paint aren't in the style guides ;))
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Today's The Day!!!
    Bet you are excited/nervous!! Relax it will be fine, you and the boys will have a lovely finished house to enjoy thanks to the DIY SOS team and your wonderful friends on here. I am so sorry I cannot be there, dying to see what they have managed to do in 10 days.

    All the best for the reveal..........
