bronze Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 It has finally decided to stop bucketing it down here. Yes bucketing is the right word as our roof has decided to leak and the attic is now full of buckets. It was heavy rain for over 48 hors and if we weren't in such a well drained area I would think we would have been floating by now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnieP Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Parping. This is a phrase which anybody who is 35 ish probably knows. It was invented by "Johnny Fartpants" from Viz magazine...... We use it all the time....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Cold here too it was 8 degrees when we got back from Norfolk yesterday afternoon, and a measly 5 degrees this morning I had the heating on last night and this morning, but it's a tad warmer now, so it's off again. warm PJs in bed last night though. Phil just came round and said that he's got his thermal top on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 I have to say it is preferable to this constant rain I have just looked at the forecast for the next few days and it says rain and thunder Harry and Jules are dying to get the new girls out in the garden, they are putting them in the greenhouse at the moment, just so they get used to being handled, at least they can't escape from there On a positive note, my painting is coming on a treat I'd still rather be out in the garden though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 No, although it does feel like it Just the hall, stairs and landing. I am doing all the glossing, which is endless doors and bannisters Nearly finished now. I have to fit in a full time job as well unfortunately I need to call a decorator to put up the paper, I don't do ladders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 If it does tough luck, I am NOT re-doing it We are going through huge changes at work at the moment, so I would like to carry on and see where I end up. I also like work (at the moment) and don't really want to give up completely. We have also had a re-think about future finances. We really want a couple of acres in Shropshire, no neighbours, loads of animals and a big veggie patch, not much to ask is it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
