Morning everyone.  Yes cookie, once again they pulled a good one out of their bag. From week to week we don’t know how they are going to perform.  Your team had a great win too, the conditions were like we had here last week.
Will look out for the tube Chookie, I have 2 other deliveries coming next week (I hope), my rug and a print - my TV room will then be finished I think. Put this together yesterday, it took me an hour and doing it on the floor gave my knees curry. I was determined not to leave it until DD next visited.

Well done Judy, everything is looking nice.   Overcast and cool here, supposed to be getting some showers later in the day.

Well done Judy. You would have had a sense of achievement.
Denise I am managing to get washing dry on the line to day too.  Sunny here.

Thanks ladies. Ha ha, it wasn’t all plain sailing.  Halfway through, this is what it looked like - legs on different ends LOL.  I wasn’t going to let it beat me but one thing is for sure, I’m never applying for a job to assemble flat pack furniture!

Judy, Ral and I had a laugh at your effort.  We get the GC to do this now.  We nearly had a divorce when we assembled the chook shed. We also ended up with bits over.
It has rained all afternoon so I have typed up 2 recipes on my Blog. Will put them on Forum when I have time.

I can understand that Chookie, we all read and see things differently so conflicts are bound to happen.  It’s a crazy way of buying furniture etc but I’ve looked everywhere for a side table and having had no luck I had to go with the flat pack.

Judy, my theory is that you must always get it wrong the first couple of times and there must always be at least a couple of extra bits that you simply cannot figure out what they are for!

Good morning everyone.  Strange weather here.  Overcast and dark one minuite, bright sunshine the next.  Still no rain.
Judy, you gave me a good laugh about building your table.  DH & I put a small wardrobe together once, never again. :)

Oh I knew and was pleased to hear that I’m not the only one to have had problems, thanks for your stories ladies. At least I could only argue with myself but an extra pair of hands would have been useful at times.

I always stay clear of any assembly.  I leave DH to it.
Judy I think you need a gold medal.

Great work on the flat pack furniture assembly Judy.👏
Walked Chance twice today,DH was busy this afternoon so couldn’t do the usual dog walk.
Another day where it started sunny then the clouds rolled in this afternoon, It looks as though it might rain tonight.

Cold, no rain today.  Gardener coming and bringing her 2 boys.  I will cook with them.  We will make a big mess.  ;D
Ral had to see a different Specialist yesterday.  Turned out we share a back fence. He didn’t charge us.
Then needed replacement tail light globe in van.  Also weren’t charged.
