    Morning all

    Bit colder this morning but no frost and the sun is coming through.

    Bad news about the crows Shiney. I've never seen any round here though I expect there are some somewhere. Never seen a magpie either since I've been here.

    It's great your builders are so good with the dogs Loli. They deserve their butties.

    Hope you manage to warm up Moyra.

    Have a great day everyone and wrap up well.

    Good morning everyone,

    Hope everyone is OK:dbgrtmb:

    Just started raining here and the forecast reckons we're in for a proper wet one today,waiting for a call from the builders to see how the land lies but there's a good chance they'll be rained off.I don't mind the rest actually,by 'eck they can't half eat and I'm sure they're having a tea drinking competition between them:phew::biggrin: The 'girls' :chicken: seem satisfied with their progress so far after a quick inspection and after entertaining the 'troops' I put them back in their run or the job will never get done:rolleyespink:

    Take it easy everyone and have a great day,take care:SUNsmile:

    Good Morning everyone,
    Coughing well this morning. I just cannot seem to get rid of it. It is all caused by my sinuses.

    Shiney, Have you managed to get rid of the crows, need a scarer of some sort.

    Loli, you are having fun with the dogs with the builders by the sound of it. How long do they think the job will take.
    Have a good day everyone, stay safe, warm and dry and above all well. God bless.:wub2:

    Aloha everyone,

    It's very dull and overcast this morning but I'm hoping to get the posts in for the new ShineyFrame. Then there's the tedious task of drilling them and putting screws in so that I can fix the wires to them. The screws have to go in near the top of the posts so it's a bit awkward as they're high up. I can't put them in before the posts are in as they will get in the way of the post thumper. Stretching the wires tight is another awkward job. But it's all good fun :blue thumb:

    Moyra, I wish you better :grphg:

    Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

    Aloha!

        Aloha everyone,

        My foot has continued to improve :blue thumb: but have a painful touch of RSI in my right wrist (having trouble typing with just one hand) from working on the ShineyFrame. :sad: Sarafi sat in a tree and supervised the work :)

        Today I'm going for a haircut and a screw (sorry, forty screws :heehee:) so I can continue with the frame.

        Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

        Aloha!

        Good morning everyone,

        Shiney:ouch1:...RSI is very painful,it's not so bad at the time but you don't half feel it when you stop.Don't forget the four candles while your at it:snork:

        Moyra...The builders did say 2 weeks but I have my doubts.Naturally I've put a spanner in the works :whistle: The builders are using the footprint of the old conservatory to build from of which the interior is exposed brick which I want to keep the same with the new brick work ,they tried to talk me into having it plastered,which would make their job easier/quicker as the finishing off of the brick work wouldn't have to be so precise but I like the rustic look so it's slowed the job down a tad.They are doing a smashing job though.Today it's all hands on deck to get the roof off but it's looking a bit iffy at the moment as it's pouring with rain:doh: .


        Have a great day everyone and take care:SUNsmile:

          Good morning everyone,

          Shiney sorry you have RSI very painful.

          Loli, Sounds as though the builders are doing a good job of the rebuild.
          Have a good day everyone, stay safe, dry and warm and above all well. God bless. :wub2: 236444.jpg

            Morning all

            Dry here today but the ground is too wet to do anything very much. Housework it is then :frown:Waiting in for a delivery so the dogs will have to wait till later for a decent walk.

            Have a great day everyone.

            Good morning everyone,

            Hope everyone is OK this morning:thumbsup:

            What a yukky wet day it was yesterday but the builders carried on regardless,I felt so sorry for them ,they were dripping wet:doh: they were still singing though,which was probably making the rain situation worse:biggrin: All is going according to plan so far even though the place looks like a bomb site:rolleyespink:

            Time for a nice cuppa before the mayhem starts again:dbgrtmb:

            Have a lovely day all and take care:SUNsmile:
