    Morning Kandy. Gogs and windy

    Kandy, sorry to hear about your disturbed morning. Smoke alarms can go off if the battery is running low or sometimes if it needs a bit of a dust inside. Unless the cat had burnt the toast!! [​IMG]

    At least the cat is showing you that you are the boss (or trying to make you think you are the boss) and is bringing you a present. did you put the mouse down the loo in order to feed the alligators?

    I have a friend who got fed up answering people when they saw a cat litter tray in the room and the people ask 'have you got a cat?' - so she now answers saying 'no, its for stupid visitors!' [​IMG]

    It's raining here as well. Not the best of times to try and move everything in to the new shed. We have kept all the stuff from the old sheds under a willow tree and covered in bits of plastic. As they have been there for over amonth now, and it hasn't stopped raining for most of that time, I think some of it will not be worth keeping and some of the metal things will be covered in rust. Not to mention the dead grass where everything had been stored! (I thought I said 'not to mention' it!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: )

    Have a nice day!! [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Sorry girls, my internet is very slow this morning. I logged on to GC before 7.30 and have only managed to get these two postings on in over half an hour.

    I still love you all. [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Shiney.What alligators?I didn't know you live in deepest darkest Africa. Alligators,we are too posh over here to have them,or so all my rich neighbours keep telling me.More like sharks.

    You might be suprised,at how well the plastic will have kept the stuff dry,though at least it will give you a chance to get rid of all the stuff you have been hoarding for years.

    I hope we are all going to get an invite to the grand shed opening when it is finished,though the way the weather is going,you will have to wait until next year before you can sit out on the new seating area you are building for all the cats that visit.

    The smoke detector is linked to the mains in the new houses they build these days,but I hadn't thought about the dust...too busy thinking of shiney things.

    And you too have a good day. [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Shiney.Have you got an old PC.?Would getting a new one help?.I know you said you are having problems with BT.

    Up here in sunny Northants if anyone has problems,they get onto the consumer programme on our local radio station,and they put their people on it,and they don't give up until something is done.

    I don't know whether you have a local sattion,or whether you listen to it.

    And I love you too Shiney,but don't tell everyone [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Our computer is quite a powerful one, it is just the telephone connection that is rubbish. BT can't do much about it without more capacity in the exchange. They need more physical space as well new equipment. It is on their future programme - I have seen the proposed developements, but they have to move buildings first.

    Gogs
    Ours is a Yardmaster. Make sure you put down a solid base. The shed is like a giant meccano kit. The instructions are well illustrated but take a lot of studying. Don't even attempt it single-handed - although you can do a lot of the early stuff on your own. Ours is a large one and has taken a quite a few days to erect.

    Good morning, everyone. We have a lovely light breeze today. We need to go out and buy a couple of more large clay pots today as the higher winds at night keep knocking things over.

    I've got a lap full of squirmig furr ... they don't half have sharp needle-like claws at this age! :eek:

    Hope everyone has a nice Bank Holiday weekend ... whatever you're doing!

    Morning Gogs,
    Having my early morning catch up on GC before the Devil Spawns wake up :D Taking my eldest girl to the skateboard park in a nearby village later, have real trouble watching though, although it's not as bad as when she goes mountain boarding. I just know one day I'm going to spend the day at casualty! :eek: Hopefully, it won't be today!!! What's your plans for today? Did you finish the curtains?
