    Trying to find a photo of what I meant - this is the most amazing garden stuff site ever: http://www.gardensite.co.uk/Fantasy_Gothic_Horror_and_Halloween_Home_and_Garden_Ornaments/

    Not just the ones on that page, look around - some really unusual fun stuff.

    I originally spotted this one: http://www.gardensite.co.uk/database_images/6o7shuqho.jpg

    They've got some great faces in trees and stuff....

    We have them on the wall with the plug socket, aerial socket etc hidden behind and I think it looks much better plus it seems much kid safer. On the other hand last one I put up was into engineering bricks and drilling 10mm holes in those b***ds was not a picnic without an SDS drill. The bracket which allows the TV to come away from the wall and pivot for up to 40 inch and 40kg is quite a piece of engineering.

    I am reluctant to put anything on the wall in case the wall comes down in the process.

    All our TVs sit on TV stands. (or should that be "stand" on TV stands?)
    I think....

    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    The boys performed at the school Chamber concert again tonight, two songs this time....and they rocked the place!

    Now the long haul of getting the videos uploaded to Youtube
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    Edit. I meant on. Pn is not covered with a cloth in my corner.
    *makes note to not ever visit LIR ... or to let people know I'm going in and if I'm not out within an hour to come looking for me and call the police*

    I'll not get tired of pushing Ken Grimwood's "Replay"- man wakes uop 25 years ago as a young man and gets to relive his life (or change it) - he knows which stocks will rise and who wins what sporting events etc.

    Philip K !!!!!!'s "Counterclock World" is a bit weird; the world enters the Hobart Phase where time runs backwards, the dead rise from graveyards, people unsmoke cigarettes and "food!" becomes a curseword. On second thoughts its one of his earlier books so not his best but full of entertaining ideas.

    Kurt Vonnegut's "Sirens of Titan" about a man trappedin a timewarp that mkes him materialise at different places and different intervals.

    Or the Cyberiad by Stanislaw Lem. hey I've recommended most of these before but they're worth a read.:D

    Thanks zag. I went for the first one :beer:

    That's 2 books now and that will keep me going from anything from a month to the rest of my life or whatever comes first :)
