I’ve been greying since I was 26 :eek:, and have coincidently forgotten what colour my hair really is.

It’s this colour currently, although can’t vouch for it staying like that!

You like your tins of sweeties don't you!

I know that Hertfordshire is a great place to live, but apparently CK lives in a real Quality Street...

I don't think a man should worry about silver threads/ some grey hairs. I like mine

Question to the laydeees to make Michaels feel better about this....

Do you find silver threads...

Attractive

Not bothered

Unattractive

Not bothered. I'm more interested in the face than the hair. I like faces that give an impression of intelligence and positive attitude. I don't like faces that look grumpy or vacant. That much makes sense. I also prefer men with short or shortish hair but can't justify why.

Have you seen infinity baths?

Like doozer i am looking at bathrooms a lot atm. Unlike doozer all i am ab,e to do is look!

I googled for images of infinity baths, and came across this page. Anyone fancy a cowhide-covered bath with the wall above it covered by an enormous picture of a cow's face? If cows are too common, try a crocodile embossed leather one. Or, to avoid any suggestion of posh alert, perhaps you'd prefer a concrete bath that looks like a feeding trough? They're the must-have bathroom feature, apparently. Or perhaps somebody has $29.7k to spare to get a bath covered in gold leaf. What strikes me about the collection is how few of them look as though they would be comfortable to lie back in.

Half way through and Phil's only just mentioned £10 poms - and is now off to meet one.

Hey NP's

For anyone that was a fan of Kseniya Simonova (sand artist), take a look at this which appeared on Nichieri (Georgia’s got Talent) last week.

That's good viewing, CK!;)
Pretty impressive work!

I can honestly say I didn't like the look of any of them.

I noticed the copper one has a strange bottom, that might solve LIR's problem of wishing to sit upright and read books.

A bath is just for washing really .... I'd rather have the money in the bank and feel 'safe' that I could afford to live somewhere and not have bailiffs at the door.

Doozergirl

Me and computerised floor plans clearly don't mix. Tried Powerpoint with Lydia's help and I'm rubbish at it - she is amazing at it! I downloaded Smartdraw from Viva's link I'm rubbish at that too.

Pencil, squared paper, tape measure and a scanner?!

(wanders off to find something to adorn the deer instead)

My uncle was one. He was a piano tuner and in the late 50s wandered into Australia house and asked if Australia needed any piano tuners. They went off to make some calls as they weren't sure. When they returned they virtually threw him on a boat as it seems Australia was completely lacking in that department.

He returned to the UK because of a family illness, and while over here his marriage broke up. He didn't see his son again for decades until the late 80s when his son phoned him out of the blue from Oz after tracking him down. He found out he was a granddad and he saw his Australian family as often as he could from then on and was so pleased to be reunited with them.:A

(His son was the one I mentioned a while back who everyone said was my double, though we were always separated by well, a whole planet):cool:

Same age as Lydia but somehow the stress of dw, dks moving and extension seem to have suddenly resulted in the change and with my hair colour it is not a nice look...

Grey hair is the mark of a winner. I know this as I got my first grey at 18, and was completely grey by 30 which should make you feel better. Now my stubble has started to turn grey and I am getting the odd grey chest hair as well. I don't let my hair get longer than about an inch because any longer than that and it starts to reflect more light than a highly polished mirror.

Hahahahahahaha, that’s an independent taxi contractors house (who came over to us yesterday).

He mentioned that there’s bird food in one, car wheel nuts in another, he’s in his 80s, and wants to come out 3/4 days a week to give him something to do. His wife died last year, and he’s currently going out for a school contract and nothing more, getting bored at home.

She’s amazing. When I first saw it, my initial impression was ‘Oh no, someone trying to copy it,’ but it’s got a unique thing to it, it’s lovely!
