Afternoon Sunny and warm Got some respite from kidney pain till stone moves again, making the most of it 🙂 Beef, spuds and cabbage for tea, that's a salad to me :D Painted one of trucks wheels, got Daresbury Steam Show at weekend Stay cool and...

Good job. Can I ask why you are removing it? J

So it only took 2.30 this morning to clear one half of the loft, 30 bags zip tied off, hoovered and bleached. Daughter helped. I’ve bought all the ppe, hepa vacuum, paid her £300 and still come in £2k under quote skip dependant. Same task again...

The mighty grey Fergie. Good choice sir 👍

Truble is you are not supposed to leave standing water around as it encourages tiger mosquito. Which is a real bore as it means I have to fit the water reservoir pump each time we want to use it. The hole is covered by a concrete manhole cover.

Don't envy you the task at all. Small parcels of it shoved into bin-liners and tied off and lobbed thru the hatch. For each "goal" reward yourself with 1 ice-cold beer. Job "jobbed" in no time. Are you vacuuming out all the "bits" too?

Exacerbated by being in a Tyvex suit with a ffp face mask on 🤣 It’s my own fault, I could’ve paid the £3k the contractor wanted to do the job. I just channelled my inner @kevstar and thought the money would be better spent on a tractor.

They are only young 30s? So they have time to change or at least make a stool wif an ole in it;). J

I have the unenviable task of removing 30 year old loft insulation today. Unavoidably the task day is set for today and tomorrow. Having been up there last week, it is like a furnace.

Thats not going to be a nice job. If you need any moral support I will be cheering you on from the pool, OK :) J

Morning All. :D Looks like another nice day! :) Have a great day. :D

Are thay planning to retire there, love to see them squatting at 70yrs 😉😉

But what happens the morning you are having a particularly reluctant poop and you can’t sit with your feet up against the door? And if you over ‘pushed’ and passed out, it could get messy if you’re only squatting 😳😳😱😱

Friends of ours down the road, they are pretty veggy,off the grid, use natural materials, where they can. They live in a Yurt with a few extensions (green house) and have solar panels. They chuck their compost toliet contents into the chicken...

I have no idea, I don’t have to use their loo in the mornings. J

Well that is interesting, as we chuck the cleaned out contents of the chicken shed on ground to use as fertiliser for our veg! What goes around comes around as they say!! I have heard that squatting "A la turque" is good for you. Personally I...

No squiggle is inherently evil. Some squiggles however, make poor life choices. It starts with just one nut from the hands of a human, then two, then three. Until the poor squiggle is so dependent on the human nut supply that he forgets how to...

The last chapter will contain evidence that "evil Squiggle" killed "Dr Squiggle" with a nut from the back door and used on the garage roof. Do I win 🤔 :p. J

So, with the good weather being back, I am halfway through cleaning out and restrawing the henhouse. Tis funny the way they fuss around when I have to invade their space! And once redone they'll be back in moving the furniture around until it is...

You REALLY should start a YouTube channel with all this, you'd soon be able to give up work!! 🤣

With the running gear of a 110

Very Tidy indeed! Congrats.

Morning All. :D Lovely day here. :) A "free" day (no chores). :) Have a great day! :D

Early advert for a prototype Freelander.

Feller sheep int kitchen. Now int bed. Nite.

...waited ferrim to come down. He dint. Seemed happy to watch me. Eye moved about slowly and kept some distance. Then anuvva squirrel walked diagonal down me garage to avoid bumping into him. Climbed down me trellis and started munching nuts on...

Wondering if drinking tons to get a good flush going might help. But then what do I know?

We were getting very near the bottom on the watta tank so yep, it's good to have a lot in there. :)
