Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 How exciting - congratulations . What a shame you won't get to play with it tomorrow . I hope you manage to stay home soon! You'll need to find your fellow cubist . Watch out for lots of cardboard boxes in someone's driveway . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Oh yeah, keep the chooks out, they get it all dirty. Keep pooing on the ladder. No respect for fine things and they have the cheek to peck it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beach chick Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Why not go for a stroll round the village on a cube spotting mission. (sorry that's meant to be a quote...) tried to peek at the address on the consignment note, but was too dark to see it!! well, left home at 8.30, dropped youngest to school, got to somerset for meeting at 12.30, left at 5.00pm, home at 8.30pm. several large glasses of red wine have made me feel better... cube is still in its 4 boxes on the patio, but DH has promised to help me build it tomorrow (this means he'll build it and I'll admire the progress - it's a kindness on my part, coz he'll just the hump if I try and do it!!) photos on Friday maybe - got to tidy the run, and make it all look nice before I post them. shame I cant do the same for the girls, who are either moulting or covered in mud.

beach chick Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 all 4 cardboard boxes look fantastic. wonder what's inside, and will I ever find out, given the howling winds and driving rain we have at the moment? was toying with the idea of building it in the kitchen, but dont think we'd get it out again...

Plum Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Go on do it. It would keep them warm for the winter. You can take it apart in Spring to take it outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
