oh my
I have
damp in the bottom part of the kitchen aka the utility
in the top part of my kitchen I have
a
dishwasher:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T
I also have a cupboard which is narrow - 1 can/jar deep - no more out of date stuff hiding in the back...
I have a kitchen door
and a sink
and workmen with whom I am very very impressed as they are making excellent progress
and a puking DS
who puked in the sink - so clearing that (without joining in) was challenging...
and I have sterilising fluid as he was so close to the toothbrushes
tis a bug - excellent timing - NOT

I suspect that the dishwasher was the primary reason for the kitchen refurb

Hmmm, I think I like this design.
Hiya, all - sorry I've been otherwise engaged for a while.
Have had my first date, have someone else to meet tomorrow evening, a few other possibilities in the coming weeks and a load of gigs coming up.
So every other job needs to be;
'Run through the setlist again'
Hope everybody's well!I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll

I am indeed!
99% of it all due to the music, too. And that all started when KH1 finally got caught by the CSA.
Karma's a bi.tch sometimes :cool:
