Daydream thread... without the rose-tinted specs

Hi all,

Hope everyone is keeping safe in all the nasty weather as much as poss - no snow here yet, just lots of rain and some wind. Think snow might be heading our way later in the week - hope not as I hate the stuff (even though DH says that's what we've got a Defender for!), not that I believe the forecasters

Not been around much the last couple of days as have been trying to make some headway indoors on our delightful 1980s extension.....DH has been getting plastered, lol, and I've been taking up the parquet flooring which has been pretty hard going

Think we'll have to rethink the Cedral weatherboard idea as it turns out our local stockist can only supply a minimum of 144 planks - more than double the amount we require Btw, Rozee, I don't know what happened, but those pics you kindly sent never arrived in my email inbox, but don't worry about re-sending them now......x

Off to an auction tomoz to look for eBay stock.....and have spotted a couple of things for our collections too, so that should be good fun and a chance to get away for a few hours

Bit of snow over this side this morning phoebe, not out here in the valley, but up in the village in the shelter of the hill. None on the hilltop that I could see though funnily enough.

anywhere near anyone??

Why's that CTC? You heading off that way on a road trip/work/collect an eBay purchase?

Not near us, no, although we used to be fairly close (Southern Hampshire) and DH visited a lot of clients in that area when he was in the design industry.......

I think there might have been some north of us LIR - Warminster way perhaps - but although we have hills a little way beyond our garden (towards Dorset, so more southerly ) there was no sign there either........;)

Oooooooooh, they want to do the electricity this week now.......

So that's where they've gone! :rotfl:

I'm pleased ours has been postponed. The state the land is in just now, the last thing I want is heavy vehicles in here, churning it up. :eek:
