Yeah, true enough

Fixing a fence panel broken by my horrible neighbours feral son kicking a ball at it. No apology or attempt to fix it themselves.

I want to move but my wife wants to stay, bit of a predicament.

Not really…

“We’re moving!”

“No, we’re not!”

“Apologies. I didn’t mean to speak for you. I’m moving.”

Latest decent one was putting up a 20 x 10 shed, yesterday shampooed the carpets and today stripped and cleaned the carpet shampooer.

Your the sort of bloke that makes us real men look bad! ;)

I re-felt the shed roof last weekend. I am certain the missus watched on in the hope I would fall off.

Watch out for the trip wires at the top of the stairs.
Maybe you should look for a bungalow.

I've seen how aussie houses are built, you couldn't lower your standards that far.
A concrete base, 3 rows of bricks (splatted with cement) and the rest is wood virtually thrown together and then nailed. Freezing in winter, red hot in summer. They do not have a clue what double glazing is, nor instulation.
Bill sends fancy Dan photos of his high rise apartment. The designer studied mechano at college.

lol = laugh out loud.

I was trying to be polite that that perhaps, given your location, that your sense of humour hadn't travelled across the North Sea.

At least I bothered to Google okei.

Remeber using that when i was 14-15 years old, are you at that age? That is used in chats between persons, dont understand why it is used on forum, does not add anything.

Cheers for your input. Illuminating really doesn't do it justice. Now jog on and rootle around for that sense of humour that you appear to be missing.

I have just finished blocking off the rat highway through back garden. Materials used: planks, bricks, plastic skirting and ceiling panels, fancy skirting boards, a shovel and a bit of old shelving.
Work of bastard art...

Watched a series on TV about moving house in Australia and they do literally that. Chainsaw it up in half, load onto wagons and move it, then nail it together when they arrive, very basic and very scruffy.
