    Just caught up after not reading the thread yesterday.

    Michaels - thanks for the shower comments. :)

    Nikkster - hooray for the job. :T

    Silvercar - hope you get time to enjoy the place as well as rushing round. It sounds lovely. :)

    Percy - congrats. Hope you're enjoying married life. :beer:

    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.     :)

    You're not supposed to feed the birds though .... signs everywhere. You feed them today ... next week they're asking to be fed... week after they're helping themselves.... week after they're on full-scale attack from the rear.

    I don't care. I don't live there, & it was an extremely nice pleasant experience, from which I got good photo's.:)

    Didn't see any signs though...:o
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    I need some paper/squared paper ... and pencils/ruler ... to be able to plan out how many shelves my storage could take.... but they're in storage.

    I can't visualise what shelves will look like based on measurements either - I'll have to find a tape measure (bound to have one in the car) ... and measure something in this room to understand whether 60cm x 27cm is tiny or huge.

    :)
