"get a man in" something you will find tattooed on all wimmin's foreheads in invisible ink!I agree with her (for once!) you need to start chilling and taking this retirement malarkey seriously!
Hope you feel better Dan, take it easy
Like the face on yer totem pole!I have now filled and weighed 4 toolboxes
I have put the weight on each one so they know what they are lifting. I had to make straps for the lower boxes as they are not locking like the upper ones.
Total so far is 136.4 Kgs

No, you didn't!When we moved here we drove over 2 trailers 1 small box with the RR. then a bigger box with the pickup. All boxes were weighed and written on so they could be distributed and heavy 1s on the bottom, Also had to try and offset a 500lb bike.
Yep we didnt bring much.

Prefer to let coolHey @Glasgie !
Don't you put the tops on as soon as they are filled? We do, as in the past we have had the odd one go off through not doing that. I know they are hot anorl but it lets then do the vacuum sealed thing.
But then we keep our jams for years! (Neighbour counted our fruit trees when we were away and told us we have 47. That's a lot of fruit a lot of which we make into jam.)
Do you use a jam funnel?
We find ours speeds things up enomously!!
Frogs love their preserves!
Anyways! yours looks lovely. Yum Yum!
We don't have room in a fridge for all our jam! (Though i expect you mean, "once opened")Prefer to let cool
Dont use a jam funnel
We are on our last jar from last year, kept in the fridge so taste as good as when we made it.
Pal's apple tree is hanging with fruit so Apple jelly next on the list
The self catering bit maybe. But with the price of oil competing with beer, I didn't do many oil changes in my stoodent days.Takes you back to ya single/student days does it.

There is an apocryphal story of a scots student who was admitted to hospital with scurvy.The self catering bit maybe. But with the price of oil competing with beer, I didn't do many oil changes in my stoodent days.
I do remember that. I recollect that it was reported he was the first person to be treated for scurvy for something like 150 years .There is an apocryphal story of a scots student who was admitted to hospital with scurvy.
When asked what on earth he had been eating, or not eating he told the following story.
Some way into term he realised ,at the rate he was spending his grant on beer, he'd never be able to feed himself so he had a great idea.
He bought a load of porridge and lined a wardrobe drawer with greaseproof paper. He cooked it all up, poured it into the drawer and let it set.
From then on he continued to imbibe and if he got hungry he went and cut himself a slice of porridge.
Until he fell ill!
That is the arm of a chair my youngest daughter made in school. I am not allowed to get rid of it so it is coming to the new place!Like the face on yer totem pole!
Oh bugga... that perhaps I have damaged myself with all the scaffold-tower climbing, painting etc. etc.
My neck is very sore & stiff and makes a gristly grinding noise as I turn my head left/right. My shoulders too are sore and my back feels like it is going to go into "spasm" at any moment.
Feck! Feck! Feck!
I have far too much to do for this sort of nonsense to be happening.
+1 ^^^^That might be true but get your priorities right!
