Hi again, I'm back in the real world again, we have internet again after a house move and three weeks without due to a faulty line and moving back into my old house which is a lot smaller than where we were living. The phrase "trying to get a quart into a pint pot" comes to mind.
We were supposed to be moving in over a month ago, but the tenant left it in a very bad state, bath had overflowed on numerous occasions and the kitchen ceiling had rotted unknown by us. We decided to get a painter in to freshen it up a bit, and the ceiling was moving every brush stroke. So on the weekend before we were due to move, we had to cancel the furniture removers and book a date a month later. We have had to get a new kitchen (old one trashed, including the floor), new bathroom (toilet was broken and so was handbasin pedestal), kitchen ceiling taken down completely and renewed, every room painted and decorated, even the outside needed attention, garden fence had to be renewed as he had been hanging things from it and it had broken. Anyway all my tools etc have been packed since early April (we were due to move on 11th) and since then I havent touched a tool apart from a screwdriver.
Yesterday I unpacked my tools, yippee and cleared a space on my desk, so now I am back into making again, if I can find where I have put things.
