...that there has been a bit of an "Oh-$hit" moment at Clarke Towers.:eek:
All the work that went into the mini-barn last year was suddenly looking like it would be a tear down and do-again.:(
We both walked out there yesterday and declared that the room stank. All I could relate it to was a smell like damp and mouldy plaster or rotting wood.
Now there is no sign of any damp in there and the painted surfaces are all pristine with no plaster bubbling or any of those signs, no dark patches on the ceiling etc. etc.
I cracked the fanlight windows open into their "night-vent" position and went away to think about it. :rolleyes:
I lay awake most of the night worrying that the roof structure was rotting away inside and would have to be all ripped-off done again. :(
Went in there this morning and again this afternoon, no smell... no nothing. :)
Now it has been there since April last year and yesterday was the first ever time there has been ANY odour to the room (other than the smell of a dinner after we have eaten in the adjoining dining room).
Now don't laugh.... but my Mrs. reckons it is the smell left by sweaty unwashed/un-bathed grand-kids who spent an hour in there the day before and were bouncing on the trampoline and riding on the exercise bike.
I am not so sure so I am going to pop some of the LED down-lighters out and have a look into the roof structure.
I just cannot think why a sudden "sour" odour would suddenly appear and then go completely in the space of 24 hours.

Sounds like yer triggurd the anti theft fing wiv unusual transactions. Eye did simular wivva number ov purchases ont same day recently. Me fone from argos. Diesel from a station eye int used fer a few years. Few uvva chops ont same day. Not me usual spending abbits so they contacted me ter check.

Very strange indeed :confused: yes unusual spending as I didnt spend as much.....even less now :D
 
Yesdi eye went oot in me garden un me bobbin were ont fence looking at me. E churped different to normal. Eye had wurms ready so went and put em in me special place. Looked ferrim ont fence and e was gone. E was already at me wurms. So eye goes to me wotchin position ont other side ov me garden 5m away. Then somefink strange append. E would normally fly away after eating. Often to the fence eye is standing by. Eye always fort he was looking to see if eye had more wurms, even though he had left some behind. On this ocasion he flew in little stages towards me. Then to the step un gottid close to some big leaf grass that edgar dunt like. Eye planned to remove it at some point. E then hopped round it un looked int uvva side. Then flew ont patio a foot away by where eye was standin un startid churpin. Hopped round me weely bin ont patio un along the fence to the rear ov me watta butts. Then fings went quiet. Then he was up int tree whisltin on security duty. Eye finks e's gorra little one hiding somewhere. Eye fort there may be somefing int me bush as sometimes eye spot im flying to/from it several times in a short period. Hadda quick look behind me watta butt few minnits later but dint see anyfink.
