I have a little guessing game for you!!:D
Tomorrow, I have the builders coming in to renovate one of the bedrooms.
In the bedroom there used to be a fireplace, which at some stage has been boxed in.
So, when the builders remove the boxing, what will be behind it?
1) A hole where the fireplace used to be?
2) A huge pile of soot and muck and half the chimney stack?:eek::eek:
3) An original cast iron fireplace, from when the house was built in 1904?:j:j
I am so hoping it is number 3, as they are worth quite alot of money and also two more bedrooms have similar boxed in fireplaces, only somewhat larger.:):)
As soon as the builders remove the boxing tomorrow, I will post a photo of what is there!
Before removal.
bloody open it now:rotfl: pretent there is an apg behind there

You will have to run for cover and quickly close the door behind you as it quickly fills up the room.
It's going to be a nightmare:o

You are not far wrong, because this bedroom was a room that I used for glitchy stuff, so I have had to clear it out!:eek::eek:
I didn't realise how many s&g deoderants, lynx shower gels, boxes of cereals, shampoos etc etc etc I have.:o:o
They are now all in another bedroom, so probably wont see light of day, until that room is renovated next year!!:DN1LDA:D0 -

Very impressed - you have managed to inspire me to get off my butt and I've managed it list 3 things this afternoon - at least its a start, might have to redo the photos though, so little daylight now“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.

Can you just explain how you manage to sell ANYTHING on eBay. I never have any luck with anything at all even when we start off at 1p:oTo do is to be. Rousseau

:beer:Digital kitchen scales b&m instore for £1.00
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/digital-kitchen-scales-b-m-instore-for-1-2376354
Needless to say I've been to BM today for fire lighters, wish I'd seen these. My eldest still has an old fashioned scales and I wanted to get her a new fangled electronic one for Christmas as she always cooks from scratch. She flattery refused to believe me when I explained that the batteries go on forever.
If I got a set for £1 then she could not argue about them
And it's her birthday next weekend and all I have got so far are some wedding bits and pieces ...“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.

I reckon she elbows her way in.
:eek: :rotfl:
TM you really are the last of the big spenders :money:..you always do so well ....
I think that legs are more important than elbows at whoopsie time. Where you stand is directly proportional to how well you do:)
I spent about £6 on that lot plus used a few wombles and it's almost a weeks worth of food for two with extra stuff in the freezer:TTo do is to be. Rousseau
