Off to hoover and polish the bedrooms, see you later, Moonie.

and  and just for luck   

 

See you later Yogi  

The wind has become stronger over the last hour here. I've had to bring in the recylcling box as it had blown into a neighbour's garden. I noticed that some of the felting over my shed had come away so I've just been out there with a staple gun to fix the felting before it came off the roof.

 Great smileys. I've hoovered and polished the bedrooms, stacked the dishwasher and put a load in the washing machine. Oh, nearly forgot, I've made a beef casserole, too.

 Well done for sorting it, before the wind did even more damage.

 

I should have used multi-quote, now I'm going to look like I'm spamming.

  

I'm surprised our shed is still standing let alone the felt is still on it El 

Fankoo 

Well done for doing all you said you would and more too  

I'm quite good once I get moving. It's getting started that's my problem!

Well you certainly pulled out all the stops today Yogi  

Its still blowing a gale with the odd downpour 

 I think I have the best of the weather today. Although there is a cold breeze, the sun is shining.

Much the same here though not much rain yet. The felting on my shed roof seems secure at least for the time being. On the other hand the felt on the shed in my back neighbour's garden is in the process of coming off. It's not in a good condition and is in bits. It tends to come off whenever it's windy and he just nails the bits back.

He doesn't sound like a keen DIY-er, El.

I think it more likely he doesn't want to spend money on properly refelting it. A pity, because the side panelling looks to be OK.

That's a shame.

That's good Yogi  

On the other hand I have plenty of heavy duty roofing felt but a cr*p shed 

 You should get together and make one decent shed between you.

 brilliant Yogi  

 

Will be in the CDWM thread for the next hour.

Okies 

And I can exclusively report that my neighbour is now busy putting the felt back on his shed roof with hammer and nails. The number of times he's done this, there are probably more nails than felt on the roof.

You could suggest he enters it for the Tate Modern art competion, sounds more interesting than Tracy Emin's unmade bed.

Batons from apex to roof edge and batons under roof edge to secure felt. Saves on nails 

. I think he'd thump me if I suggested it to him.

I think in this case discretion is the better part of valour EL

 You are the forum's answer to Bob The Builder.

 

 Good advice, Squiggle.

 

Signing out early tonight. Mr Yogi has been away for a few days and is due home soon. I shall wait with Keira to give him a warm welcome home.

Goodnight all, see you tomorrow.

Leaving a hug for Summer.

I think My Yogi will enjoy both of your welcomes Yogi  

Nitey nite. Welcome well and see you tomorrow   

thanks yogi, sweet dreams I had to giggle at El's neighbour I'm impressed with your DIY efforts el Our wintery weather calmed down as I was walking the (moody) dog and we actually had a little bit if sunshine! By far the best part of my day Sleep well all, will catch up properly tomorrow. Leaving for skylark, I miss you

Loving the owls Summer you are spoiling us 

Lovely set of owls Sweet  Nitey nite Sweet and moody Bramble   Sleep well. See you tomorrow   

Good morning everyone. Still chilly, although the sun is shining.

Lots of lovely owls last night, Summer. How is your MiL?

Why was Bramble being moody? Was she in the doghouse for something, or is it a hormonal thing?

Have a good weekend everyone.

Good morning everyone

 

The weather here is a lot better than yesterday, warmer, quite sunny and much less windy.

 

Oooh, lots of owls

They are part of a picture:

Good morning everyone, a better day here, I hope it is for you all too.

 

I love that larger version of the owls picture EL, what a clever lady.  Does anyone else think that design would make lovely curtain material for a child's bedroom?

 

Summer is Bramble moody because she is in season do you think, or has she reached the teenage moodiness stage?

Good morning 

 

We have sun here at the mo  So for me
