      Ha! If only...

      Actually, it was in the back of a lorry. I wondered if it had fallen off the back of another one. Anyone know where it's going? Service or MOT maybe?

      But what happens when you bring the stuff down from the loft - presumably she 'does' the rest of the house?

      Had a frield who used a tea-chest as a dining table for about two years! A floor length table-cloth meant that you didn't know until you banged your knees!

      Ha, and I bet you knew it too! Ditto with the strange mates, one of mine used wine bottle cases (loads of them!) to make a wall of box-shelves. Looked quite nice!

  17. Packing to move house on a hot day with gastric flu. The loo roll is the last item to go in the box

  21. "Steve, come and help me with my new jigsaw!", cried Nan, "I't's got so many pieces, but it's meant to be a chicken". Sighing as I walked over, "Nan, sit back down and I'll clean up the cornflakes..."
