I know, I know, I know.... But it seemed such a good idea at the time, Fitzroy.... I'm now coming across little niggly things as well....the Aldi tool boxes, for example... I know! I'll sit them at the back of the bench, against the wall, in what I loosely describe as the tool rest! No. No, you...

Spurred on - nay! Inspired! - by nosuchhounds'"Tiny 8 x 6 workshop" thread below and a few days of good weather, I determined to sort my shed properly. I scrounged 3 scaffold boards off my wife's employer, and ripped apart a few pallets so I could laminate some sturdy legs and stretchers and...

Not to mention my personal favourite..... A bloke who suffered badly from plantar and consequently walked with a pronounced limp.... "Sniper's nightmare"....

On today's BBC News site... "England is seeing record high levels of gonorrhoea and syphilis sexually transmitted infections" Well, ****** me.....

"Right, ladies and gents...after all those questions, it's down to a tie-break! Here's your decider! Who's the only Formula 1 driver to win the World Championship for both McLaren and Ferrari?" "Lauda!" "I asked Who's the only Formula 1 driver to win the World Championship for both McLaren and...

Well, 5 months have passed by...and the boys actually turned up yesterday. No warning...they just arrived. Courtesy of their two ladders and my pallet and three scaffold boards, they were done in an hour. Told you it would be tricky!

Oh dear.... :giggle:

I did, and I didn't! Yes, I did decide, and following sound advice from the folks on here, decided not to buy! For the minute, gardening duties are the time-takers, to be followed by a shed clean-out, in turn followed by a proper, functioning mini-workshop setup. It says here....:giggle:

My 40th is memorable for a lousy reason....I woke with chickenpox! I'd felt a bit rubbish for a couple of days before, but had no idea what was to turn up. I only found out years later how dangerous it can be for adults....

Sorry, but can someone translate this for me, please?!

Yoko Oh No... ... in every sense

Oh, I don't know. At least we've got pneumatic tyres now...

"Nearly hit a stuart"! Marvellous stuff, matey! :giggle: Good on ya!
