    Yes, I must steal some of the ideas used in Mikes house.... and get myself a Neville the Second. Any spare paint you can send me?

    Psycho, that's brilliant! You must be over the moon!
    Tell us all about it - it may help to make up for not knowing what Mike's place looks like!

    Haha ok.... not sure what details you would like but.....

    it's a ground floor flat, with a huge outdoor space so good for bbqs and sunbathing :D shouldnt be parking problems :j biggish, as its an older building, storage heaters (which is a bummer but we will live) main bedroom quite big, but we havent decided who is having which room yet. erm..... i could go into more detail but it might be a bit dull!

    Killer did you see the photos in the Littlehampton Gazette? That is your back we saw. Killer was a page 3 star! Quiet spark you made the front page sitting in that wheelbarrow.
    Mike has just told me we made the Gazette this week as well.

    Hiya peeps

    Just a quick message to say reports of my disappearance were exaggerated!.

    The stored stuff arrived last night and I couldn't find me router thingy...

    I hardly slept last night...

    Today I was setting up my PC in the conservatory. I got connection to my laptop late last night but very sloooow.

    This evening, I had about five phone calls.

    Then whlle I was eating a sandwich (dinner!) gallons of water started pouring out of the ceiling of the boiler cupboard. I called the beeb and they gave me their plumber's number and he was round within the hour and it took a while to solve the problem (two pipes had separated in the ceiling space).

    So I mopped that up and finished my sandwich.

    Then a local historian rang the doorbell and wanted to see if there was a secret passage and a basement (quite interesting) and was about to tell me about the resident ghost (Oh Great!) then it started getting dark and I had to put a load of stuff back in the house from the garden.

    I haven't watered the window boxes (everything in the kitchen got watered though) but I wanted to just say... hang in there! I'm fine, if damp, and will post tomorrow.

    Really sorry about the delay but nothing I could do. I'm public property at the moment and one has one's responsibilities to the local populace. So hang loose and I'll try and say something deeply significant tomorrow.

    Thanks everyone.

    Mike


    Busy busy busy!!:D
    Enjoy it Mike, So pleased for you and your family i`m so gutted i never came to support/help out but will certainly be watching the show when it is aired (hope i dont miss out on that!)
    A liveable conservatory hey?!! SOOOO jealous hehehe!!
    Hope the leak was sorted and nothing else crops up, all minor really in comparison to how you`ve been living i`m sure.
    Keep safe and well

    I am just waiting for a Neville the third to appear - the peanut butter in the trap is going off. I could supply one if you like. You might have to ignore the continous listlessness :rotfl:
