Last One to Post Wins

[Stephen]

Not long to go and then I am off for nearly 2 weeks. Weekend booze cruise on Aurora and then staying on for the fjords. Looks like it's going to be bl**dy cold! That would ruin my life so I shall be after compo!

Make sure you all behave and don't annoy the ModPlods so we still have a forum when I get back! Should be back on here on the 25th. Missing me already?!

I think you'll find its us that will be having the 2 weeks off .

Have a good one and don't go upsetting the crew as we are on Aurora in a couple of months time

I seem to remember Merv is going to the fjords later too - I'll try to leave my mark!

They'll also be stripping the floor. The plumbing is being rerouted now that the bath has been removed. The plasterboard behind the bath and loo is water-damaged and must be replaced. The waste pipe into the soil stack wasn't fitted properly when the house was built, and apparently it's a wonder the waste actually went into the soil stack and not down the outside - and the parts are now a different size so everything has to be replaced. And there's a leak in the pipes coming out of the boiler.

Good 'ere, innit!

You have my sympathy Alan. Been down that road twice. Nice when it's all done, but your glad to see the back of the trades and all the mess.

What's the weather been like down in Wurzel Land?Hope it's better than here - we've had biblical rain this afternoon!

Been cr*p today, although the sun is now showing itself at last.

No sympathy - what fool goes on holiday in the middle of May? Oh yes, I remember.....!!

Ahem ......someone off to the fjords very soon .....oh, and cheap skates like me that don't want to pay overly inflated holiday rental prices for the same property

[qbman1]

Tell me about it - the forecast for the day we are in Flam predicts a maximum temperature of 4 deg !!

[Stephen]

Rather you than me

[qbman1]

It's OK, I've got me fur-lined pants out

[Jan Rosser]

It's OK, I've got me fur-lined pants out

Don't tell me you've caught the bunny rabbit and put it to good purpose

Have a great time

I heard he's hoping to do a bit of mooning moonlighting as a bunny girl impressionist while on Aurora

Thanks, Stephen. This is our second time - the first one I did myself and rather splendid it was too. But now I can't be faffed with DIY and fitting a walk-in shower is beyond my abilities.

They're doing a grand job with the plumbing, although the loo has to be flushed with a bucket at the moment. It's not worth re-connecting the cistern as the new toilet is going into the corner, hopefully by the weekend.

It'll all be worth it in the end.

Fahrenheit??

[Silver_Shiney]

No, absolute!

[Stephen]

It'll be cold that's for sure.

[Not so ancient mariner]

Metallic primate weather!!

[Stephen]

A bit like here where I currently am today

[Silver_Shiney]

It's very pleasant here!

[Jan Rosser]

Lovely here today - sunny and warm - just cut the grass

[Stephen]

Go on, rub it in. A good afternoon and evening though. Currently having a good last night slurp looking out onto the Devon countryside

[Silver_Shiney]

Looks like you've all finally realised it is futile to keep challenging me for the lead. Keep it that way, eh?

[Stephen]

Dream on. .

[Silver_Shiney]

No wonder you're lagging behind if you're dreaming, Stephen!

[Not so ancient mariner]

Mornin' all!

[Silver_Shiney]

You're up and about early, squire!
