Very nice Steve  - I've noticed our roses are really doing well this year; where we'd only get a couple of blooms per plant in the past, this year, they're going mad.

It's not that I can't find worth in anything, it's just that I can't find worth in enough.

Well with the amount of bull  around from the government this year, that's hardly surprising

Too true Jim, too true. I bet that, just like me, you can't wait for Parliament to reconvene

True, I could do with a laugh.

When people get lost in thought it's often because it's unfamiliar territory.

I'm now suffering from a slight case of shed envy. I might get around to putting up a couple of shelves today - unlikely, but you never know.

I bought a new shed door the other week for the carport/covered terrarse (aka 'Malcom') and after much searching have found a sturdy cast iron Suffock latch to replace the thin pressed steel one of the old door - surprisingly it was cheaper than a crappy steel one from Focus. All holes have been made, including one for a cat-flap (yeah, I know they can walk around the workshop-shed and enter the terrase from the open side, but they're lazy little buggers) - today's task is to varnish it.

I fixed my beer storage shelves upside down on purpose in the darkest corner of the shed.
Two shelves.Attach brackets so that they are approximately a beer bottle's width apart. Fix to wall upside down,brackets facing upwards so that the bottles fit snugly between the brackets and that they cannot roll.

Dean, it's Do It All, not Focus. Well, it's called Focus Do It All but you know, we all call it Do It All.
They don't Do It All though...

A rose, is a rose, is a rose, said the Mama of Dada, back in 1919.

But we're all old enough to know it as Do It All.
Just like Snickers is Marathon, Oil of Olay is Oil of Ulay and Cif is Jif and Starburst is Opal Fruits.
