I'm half dead today.  Drank way too much last night as usual and paying for it today.  I need a nice chinese to bring me round then a good sleep.

WOAH WOAH WOAH, BACK UP A BIT!

 

Who said he was handy?  He just thinks he is.  I popped to the local shop to get some milk and came back to him having drilled through the electrics.

 

He's handy in the plumbing area though. 

 

And for once that wasn't a euphemism. 

 

 

 

Or was it

Mrs Brown's Boys gets really tiresome on repeated viewing!

Oh, I dunno. I could watch and laugh at every episode 

For me it's really diminishing returns with Mrs Brown's Boys.  First episode - great, second - still funny, third - still funny but the routine's a bit predictable, fourth - funny in places but getting predicable, fifth - humour's starting to grate, sixth - I'm not watching this shite anymore!

DITTO - my mum loves it - I found it pretty cringeworthy and 1970's.

I don't like it either.  I don't see why people think it's so amazing.

Mr Cinds goes skydiving in 3 locations.

 

1. http://www.skydiveacademy.org.uk/

 

2. http://www.skydivespain.com/

 

3. http://www.bkpc.co.uk/

 

Last week, the plane at location 2 crashed shortly after take off.  Thankfully all got out safely.  Yesterday at location 3, a jumpers parachute tangled and he couldn't get his reserve open in time, sadly he didn't survive. Location 1 is his local haunt and I feel a bit sick that something will happen.  I know it's crazy but you can't help how you feel.

It's a shell.  Only the sink and cooker left in there at the moment, but they will be gone by the weekend, then the plasterer will start.  So it's pretty much going to be a mess until we go on holiday, then hopefully will return to it all finished. 

Oooh excited for you - I hated the sink/cooker only malarkey especially as I was ankle deep in dust and rubble (we had a wall out and new ceilings too) - I wanted to go away on me hols until it was completed but - wasn't a possibility.

 

Keep the pics coming - wish I'd documented mine.

Soozy, 9 years ago when we did the kitchen the first time Mr C took a wall down.  It's now getting done properly (), so all the walls and ceiling need redoing.  The ceiling is a mess of holes and wires hanging down.  This week won't be too bad while I still have the cooker and sink, it will be next week when they're both gone and I'll have to suffer a week of take away food and dining out
