Just typed a big long post about the dairy and the coach house and lost it. I give up.

There's a system that sorts out issues such as finding yourself outside without a key. The way it works is that you load up your trousers with useful things - money, keys, hankie, credit cards - at the start of the week. Then you wear the same trousers every day until they are grubby. At that point you transfer the whole kit over to some clean trousers, etc. It's a really neat, virtually fail-safe system. It's one of the few things that men do better than women IMHO. Of course, it's a triumph of function over form, so it'll never catch on.

Until you hear the bin men in your road at 7am, realise you haven't put the bin out and hurtle down the stairs and out the front door to move the bin the required 3 foot for them to empty it. Turn around and realise that the door has slammed shut behind you and you aren't wearing your work trousers but are still in your pyjamas.

I very slowly learned from bitter experience that the best thing to do after a very long complicated post is just before you hit the post button is hit ctrl -A and ctrl C.

Lost loads of posts. Doesn't seem to be a spellchecker here either so I end up reediting my post and sometimes just deleting it and rewriting it afresh.

Doozergirl......

Doozergirl......:). Smiles nicely before asking question.

Would it be possible to make a hole in, say a mirror? Is that something a glass cutter would be able to do do you think?

Like, a mirrored table or something.....

Because (your husband knows to worry at this point).....I have an idea for something I want to do......but it will only work if I can make a hole in the glass.......


(Its ok, its not in the bathroom. Not that one anyway. )

(Edit...if not I think I've just had another second back up plan anyway! ). Omg, sometimes my plans delight even me!)

I'm sure you can put holes in glass. I think you need to temper it to make it strong - we've definitely done it for plug socket spaces in splashbacks.

I don't know if it's different for making mirror. I don't know how mirror is made

Mirrored plug sockets.......there's an idea. I want some...oh, no where for them.......




Hmm. I think plan b might sound safer. Pla b is tiles, which is more conventional. I need to talk to a mirror man after the bathroom panels are painted anyway, so maybe I'll ask anyway..........

I nearly posted my keys into the post box this evening instead of posting the card in the other hand ... :eek:

Just watching Educating Yorkshire. Some of the scenes were covering the Year 11 girls' career hopes. One lass said "I'd like to do fashion journalism, but I've heard it's hard to get into, so as a backup I've got law." Hmm :rotfl:
