Powering through the work

The last couple of weeks have really been quite efficient. We logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged and logged. The Range Rover was invaluable. We did extreme 'Axe Men' style log pulling - to the theme music of Thunderbirds. It was very muddy. The Grizzly Claw tyres dug in and pulled like a tank going over the Somme. That reminds me of my experiences as a pre-pubescent nine year old just at the end of World War II. It was a few weeks before the end of the war, we were hunkered down in a trench sheltering from the incessant bombardment from the gerrys. It was cold and wet. My feet stank of almonds. Gangrene was setting in. Fourteen of the fifteenth regiment were dead. I was armed with a single Thompson and only a dozen rounds left. But anyway.... After some more logging, and some cutting (hay), we collected 35 sheets of plasterboard from the other side of Danvou (roughly translated as transvestite donkey). We used a full 2.5 sheets to put up the ceiling in the bathroom. What we will do with the other 32.5 sheets who knows. Personally I am in favour of stenciling a number of suits on one side then going for the Guinness World Record for the largest house of cards ever built. Obviously this will not be the number of cards - but the size. Alternatively we could cut them into 20mm x 90mm rectangles, paint them black, then go for the oversize domino toppling world record. Anyway - back to the trenches... There I was with a dozen or so rounds left...

I must remember not to let Uncle Tony write the blog!! Inside the house we have also reorganised our bedroom and Kirstys bedroom and given Josh a new, bigger chest of drawers. All very important in the larger scheme of things!!

Anyway, we are enjoying having our visitor here and he is being very useful!! Thank you Uncle Tony. xxx
