    Morning Shiney,you must have had a bad night as you are up so early,most unusual for you.Spring is definetly in the air me thinks :D

    Glad the quiz went ok and you raised all that money [​IMG]

    At least you know how I feel when trying to answer questions in your 'Obscure Quiz'The questions are only easy if you know the answers.I have never read 'Peter Rabbit' or 'Thomas The Tank Engine' or watched the 'A Team' because not having children there was never any reason to read the booksor watch those sort of programmes,never mind :D

    Hope you have a good day in all you do and I hope the sun room is coming along just great :D [​IMG]

    Thanks Kandy

    The room is coming on well. Yesterday they were pinning the tarred paper to the outside of the wooden sheeting in preparation for putting the planking on the outside. This paper helps keep the damp out although we shall also have insulation and plasterboard on the inside. Mrs shiney told them that most people put wall paper on the inside of the building! :D She usually manages to keep them laughing most of the time. They start putting the roof on from Tuesday then they can start on the inside.

    Hi Shiney

    The village cowboys,I mean builders,are putting up some new houses along the road from us and that is how they are doing it.It looks funny seeing the paper on the outside.They only started it all a few weeks ago and they have already started putting the tiles on the first roof.They will be finished the whole lot in about three months from start to finish.

    The experts reckon that in this day and age the way they build houses so fast and with such poor materials that it is reckoned that they won't last above twenty five years.Hopefully by then I shan't be around to worry about it [​IMG]

    Good Luck with it all [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Morning all! I cant believe i was up before 9 and not dashing to work! I'm intrigued about these questions now so i'm going to hunt Shiney posts until i find them!

    Today is the day of the fundraiser at work - 007 Day for the charity Starlight. I've organised a while lot in a very unorganised manner!! [​IMG]
    It'll be interesting to see how it goes, i will likely get some photos and post them up here tomorrow.

    Hope you all have a good day!

    I've just found Shineys quizs and i dont like it. Hes out to make us look simple and uneducated.

    I'm suspicious of the whole thing.

    [And i didnt instantly know the answer to more than 2 questions on that first page. I'm not bitter!!]

    :D :D :D :D

    Goodness, good morning one and all. Even I can't take so much chatter first thing in the morning ... silence is golden first thing! [​IMG]

    It's been raining this morning and hopefully we will have some more. It's 13 degrees so pleasant.

    Have a good one whatever you all do.

    Boa fim semana!

    Morning Gogs!

    Yay for easier questions, i'll give it a bash later on when i'm less 'quick-shave-legs-wear-in-shoes-give-up-and-go-on-forum-WAIT!-I'M-RUSHING'...y.

    On a happy and calmer and somewhat exiting note, i just saw my black birds in the garden again in y holly tree, so promptly stood on a stool from the window to see them better and they've made a nest! :D :D :D
