    Horrible job this morning cleaning the muck off my collection and the shed floor,thank goodness most of the collection was on shelves. I think all three sheds will have to go,they stink and are full of gunge.

    That looks like a job and a half Pal - do you have clean/running water to use?

    After all the help given by so many did you hear the news of the person (can't call him a man)
    who dressed in a "fireman's uniform" to gain entry to houses, and another despicable moron who
    thought it was funny to actually pee into one of the water bowsers!!
    Can anybody think of a suitable punishment for these half-wits? :mad:

    :( Oh dear Pal, that must have been a difficult one to do.... Hope you haven't lost much of importance from the shed?.. :eek: Well I hope the insurance co' don't drag their feet like this in settling the claim.....!!!!! :(

    Yes jjordie, I read that, there are some very "sick" people out there these days. I don't know what is going on with some of the people today.... :mad:

    :D I came across this bottle earlier..
    It reads..'Newery Mineral Water Company'
    The motto under the embossed Hand says
    'Nil Desperandum'
    But what is the hand gripping??? [​IMG]

    Hi Pal, I hope the weather has improved there- it's still raining here and I thought of you cleaning up- dispiriting enough without rain as well.

    Hi Liz...It's dry and the Sun is out now. We had a lot more rain last night and the ground is like a full sponge..fingers crossed it doesn't chuck it down too much or we'll be under again.Still,that won't matter much because we've lost the lot already! Even the skirting is falling off as it dries and splits..

    Pal, re your bottle - it looks like that hand has got hold of somebody's throat and made
    their eyes nearly pop out!
