      Turns out I've misquoted a misquote(!) The line (from Jasper Carrott) was actually '..has the devil for a sideboard'

      Well, I did chop up some wood for the fire, lay three more brick courses for the BBQ and tidy up the model rly room.. er..chapel - so I think I was owed a favour. I would check the bottom of the wardrobe (for shoes) but I..er..haven't built it yet (one of the jobs on the 'list')
