    Thought so :D
    I'm wondering if yours and my DH were separated at birth :think:
    Up in the loft we have a stack of wooden planks we bought for boarding the loft over 10 years ago and DH started off by fixing 3 down and has never touched them ever since :mad:
    The internet is now a lot more resourceful than it was back then and I pointed out to him then he needed to have the joins of have boards on the joists :D
    Guess who as right all along :D although I'm now going back up and have to remove the screws of the 3 he drilled down (lopsided :mad: )
    I now know why I banned DH from all diy many many years ago :rotfl:

    Are you ever gonna get any closer to your new bathroom? :D

    Yep new garage is being built as I type. :j

    Roof is on sides being started today. I am having my own little section in the middle to keep everything. :D

    Photos like this always make me wonder if I'm not doing enough cleaning, it would take me years to get through a cleaning and laundry stash like that! It's good going though, very impressive :T

    p.s. Afternoon all! Still no news on the job front, but they said they'd be in touch by the end of the week, so still 2 days to go. Not even sure I want it anyway, I'm feeling in a bit of quandary career-wise at the moment. I could just do with someone to say 'this is the career/job for you!' and it would all be so much more straightforward :o

    It was interesting to read all the IBS talk yesterday, I can totally sympathise, I can gain over 2 clothes sizes in a day on average and I've had people give up seats on trains because I must have looked heavily pregnant :(

    The little bottles with the yellow lid are ecover cleaner only one of those left, got through couple at the caravan. :eek: And only 3 of the big bottles of flash left think they were 30p from glitch few years ago haven't bought any in ages, got 20 I think. :o

    I don't go mad with cleaning well I don't think I do. :rotfl:
