Am picturing...

Thanks for that your Royaltiness (no longer). I'll try that next time I am down there!🤣🤣🤣🤣

Now how do you know that 😮😮😮😮😮

I'd bargain with them! Get this done and you can have a burger....... Kids'll do anything for a burger!!!!

You need to fly a helicopter in the Falklands. After that you don't sweat EVER, allegedly.

Good lord, some of you folks are knowledgeabububble!:)

Tea towel with a elastic band keeps the Sun of your neck as a bonus 😉

OK, so is it the sweat band? Huh, I've tried every sweat band under the sun, literally, and none of them work for more than 5 minutes. I wear bandanas, folded into a triangle, as they then absorb the sweat from the baldest part of my head, they...

Edit got it now!!

didn't know that! Might have to look at what we laughingly call the "grass" over here. As we really. only have weeds. What did you do to get rid of them, please?

Morning All :D Another decent day so far. :) Shopping later, but will try and dodge that.:) 1/3 more of the wood to shift will do me as a task. Have a lovely day. :D

Hasn't got buttons has it 😕😕

Can't the kids help ?

I'd try a water sterliser like Milton first, otherwise yer just adding smells ...

Sadly not the access to the back garden is the 3'6" path down the side of the house. I have stopped for the day and yes it is "hurty", anaesthetic Vodka is being applied.

My COB, as in before I start having a drink. ;) It didn't arrive till just after 2 and we (me-n-'er) have managed to load/barrow and stack just over 2/3 of it. She's gone off to the hospital to see her Mum, I have the G-kids to look after. Son's...

Jeez it’s wham today.

He ain't got one. Must be scrapping his Freelander :p

Thats gonna be hurty tomorrow :eek:. Can you not move the cars off the drive and get it placed somewhere that allows you more time. J
