    I'm sure Lir would realise your physics skills would enable you to escape [STRIKE]the temple of doom[/STRIKE] her cellar and deem it not worth the risk.

    Others haven't been so lucky. Why do you think the pond water level is so high in a drought! :eek:

    I'll be driving down that way on Sunday, head down and right foot planted! :D

    You are so mean. I would have leabt you a t shirt too.

    In fact, we do not have a cellar, only the secret dwarf room. And that is full now.

    We are thinking alut a cellar under the new bit, but didn't think about it before, and would involve getting planning again.....is it worth it, for wine?

    Is that a zombie tracking t shirt where you press a button and anyone you've gave a t shirt makes their way to your [STRIKE]dungeon[/STRIKE] cellar. :eek:

    There's a book in there. Tom...........

    Funnily enough the architect was saying those were a poor investment just the other day.....if you already have a floor or slab. Th time to put a cellar in is before you put house ontop.:D

    Lydia, i am probably wrong persone to ask, but i would paint walls darker, not as dark but same tone as the colour that is not red in the cushion fabric, or a warmer, cotswold stoney tan, but definitely not a yellowy tan.

    The colour that's not red is grey - a streaky weave of many shades of grey, but all on the black/white side of grey rather than the brown/beige/sand end, IYSWIM.

    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.     :)
