    DD will go out to check on all the bunny rabbits before bed -and the dog always accompanies her up the garden to the yard, so he will have wee then.

    It is the more important 'business' that takes place on walks.

    With our last two dogs we had them from puppies and trained them to go to the loo in our garden and we would clean up. Then out on walks they rarely carped. This one was rehomed to us when he was five and will not go to the loo in the garden unless he is absolutely desperate or ill.

    OH just likes walking the dog anyway...it is their 'me' time, and usually the dog loves him. Not tonight.


    Oh, I get one of those from each of the big two before bed too usually. I do late check and then basically stomp about the place until they have been. How far we walk and go depends on them. Sometimes they go at eight.

    Please look at picture 6 and offer opinion. Would you paint the beams white?

    We are redecorating (now that the heating pipes have been channeled etc). The dining room is a about 12 x 16 and has 4 wood beams across it. They may be structural so we are stuck with them. Walls are staying magnolia and there is a dado rail and bay window, so the beams are in keeping with the room, but the furniture is quite modern in light oak. Currently the beams are dark brown, I am tempted to paint them white - but once done there is no return.

    How about just platerboarding over them and downlights :)

    Re Machetes and sharpening, i nearly cut my thumb off sharpening the knife to carve the xmas turkey when i was a chalet boy. Not having a good medical kit I went to the next door chalet and promptly passed out in their kitchen....

    Re the quiz - safely into double figures :)
    I think....

    These crushing dilemmas...

    My hair feels like it would benefit from a wash...but I'm only ong to get rained on and have to waj it again in the morning. The question is can I sleep having acknowledged I really wit to wash my hair?

    Such things are symptoms of not having enough to think about. Time to down load some serious reading matter I believe.

    I'd probably strip the roof off, the fit a light tunnel slap bang in the middle..... new roof round the light tunnel. Job done.

    Oh, and more light funnels dotted around on the ground outside to bring more light in.

    Not for me. I don't get greasy hair really, not for ages and ages. I get curl loss or...like now something a stage before itchy. If I left it it would be itchy. , from being rained on and dried out. I think its probably just time to give the old scalp a bit of a rinse and massage. Be cause I don't brush or anything its only when I shower and condition it that happens. Though.....I might actually shampoo this time....I'm going to leave it till tomorrow' do it after the barn.

    I've got the horses all to myself , all of them, for a week or ten days soon. I'm so out of habit of doing every thing I'm going to be quite tired, especially as they off the grass in this weather :(.

    Considering you are not well, your life always sounds bloody exhausting. I don't know how you do it. Please cut yourself some slack and wash your hair another time.

    Bugslet had delivered something to Burlington, the underground town on the south coast.

    It had 10 miles of roads, a TV studio, and room for 4000 so the whole forum could probabaly fit in.
