Being only a very indifferent bodgy-type carpenter myself, I wouldn't dream of laughing at anyone else's carpentry skills.:)

Trust me, Bob, I live in awe of my Mum who can build furniture inc cabinets and Windsor chairs and alongside my Dad, who belongs, like me, to the bang a couple of pallets together school of outdoor carpentry.

Am with the folks' atm and we just chose a new-to-us armchair which will mean tomorrow will involve dismantling a knackered 30-year-old armchair. Because it can't fit in a car to go to the tip.

I'm good at dismantling stuff. Gimme a lump hammer and I can dismantle just about anything.............:rotfl:

If I can get bits of wooden frame small enough to sneak on the coach, I shall take them to a pal for kindling.

I can just about build firewood.

I think you're right VJsMUM and there would be the whole gamut of civil protests and riots, petitions, anarchy but I'm not really convinced that any of it would be enough to make TPTB actually restore so much as a farthing to anyone once they had 'harvested' it from banks and financial instutions and had it in thier grasp. We'd be up that creek paddleless and there would be absolutely nothing we could do about it!! Call me cynical if you like but I'm not sure that politicians actually have a good side to appeal to!!! I do think however that it would be the act in extremesis that there was no feasible alternative to when it happened, and who knows what crisis would precipitate that as an action? Don't we live in interesting times???

My mother has a notice above her wood lathe saying Ornamental Firewood a Speciality.

A pal who has a woodburner has had some very interesting bits and pieces to incinerate over the years.

Yeah, let's call a general strike, risk getting dismissed or don't get your pay and see who blinks first, the populace or the government.

Most people are supine in the face of political iniquity, in my experience. They'll beyatch and whine but will do beggar-all about it.

You won't hear what you really need to know in the mainstream media. It isn't in the interest of the owners of the mainstream that people ask hard questions. They want you to oooh and ahhhh over celebri-morons and follow sports obsessively whilst they're busily robbing you blind.

I'd write more, but I need to update myself on the [STRIKE]fembots[/STRIKE] oops, the K*rdashians.
