The bin is your friend, feed the bin.

Fed the bin, but the dining table is still full! The rest of the house lacks storage room as well. It's the books that are taking up the room.

Our house also lacks storage, seems to be full of canoeing kit at the moment (walking, biking, and climbing kit in the loft). Seriously cut down on train stuff this year (Ebay is also a friend) but there's still a kit mountain.

Approximate sequence 35mins - 2hr 10min 4hr 30min - 2hr 50min - 1hr - 2hr 40min - 1hr - 30 min - 27min - 50min - 20min then it went doen on time. Who invented the algorithm? Why is always out?

I much preferred it when you could watch the blue bars going up and down.

Weirdly, it's my Mac that has that problem.

And I still hate Macs

We seem to have got to the age where we get food parcels!

Slippers? Dressing gown?

Don't keep us hanging or we'll make summat up that sounds far worse....

Fleece gilet - find they have the right degree of cover with the right amount of freedom.

What's Dr. McCoy doing in there?

You should worry, our local branch of Morrison's was selling hot cross buns yesterday!

It's worse than that it's dead Jim

Kids will kids. Get over it.

Lack of parental application of the word 'No' comes to mind.

It's the same everywhere. They grow out of it eventually.....problem is, it takes time!

Beirut's pretty hot at the moment.

one of my yorkies isn't fussed, the other is trying to hide behind the telly

Our current two are unfaxed by the fireworks but it would be nice if people understood the 11pm curfew.

Shall I help you find them, Michael?

You'll have to be less obtuse.

I always knew that oblique is the answer!

Newport, Wales (we''re leaving the country). Visiting Forest of Dean and various archaeological sites, Caerleon, Caerwent, Big Pit, Chapels where we find them.

Just seen the weather forecast - dampish and getting colder.

Should be dry in Big Pit!

I normally eat mine from the bowl

.....bet you feel a heel now! :-)

Sock it to 'em

Dogs chewed our digital set-top box remote, but you can't buy them as a spare. So I had to buy a new set-top box. Even so, only cost $40

Fortunately the one I had to replace it with was only a tenner from Tesco

The one from my tv has a habit of dying after 2 years, has to be an exact replacement and it costs £30 a time

you have it easy, my malimute howls at them, we have to keep her in a room with loud music or something louder than them or just put up with her ):

Sitting at the desk with a dog trying to crawl up each trouser leg - There's no answer to that...

And there's been fireworks on Halloween, and they're at New Year as well.

Them as makes the mess clean it up?

top tip!!

or plant some taties for xmas?

Fortunately only screws, bolts, nuts and nails. I *had* sorted them all out:(

Do'h!

Been there, done that.

Did you get a look at the SDR?

Did you get a look at the SDR?

Not a chance - in for the meeting (where I took the dogs for a walk) back to Exeter, lunch on the quay then home - a good 14 hours in all.

The pointy bit is to tell you when you've picked it up at the wrong end

What have you done this time?

D'oh!

I hope it's a static van and not another one for the road!!

Teddy Boston had a 009 layout on his canal boat.

Touring van - we do fieldwork in various parts of the country

All together now: "Jingle bells, batman smells, Robin's laid an egg....

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr bar humbug

Not long to wait for the Hornby 2012 list then

I'd just let the cat out, thinking they'd finished. Started up again! 10.50pm!

Dogs still very nervous. One wouldn't eat at all, and still won't.

Police have just arrested two youths. One had been drinking battery acid, the other had eaten a firework. The first was charged, but the second was let off.

Not started mine yet John, so will hopefully learn from you?

Going to blog it - once I've bleeped out all the necessary words

look forward to that.

Unfortunately I can't stand anywhere on the floor to be able to attach things to the ceiling.

Time to break out that jet pack, methinks! :-D

Hey - brilliant!

That` s wheelie camp! :-)

just how many caravans have you got?

Recently saw them described as 'tupperware trailers'. Made me laugh anyway...

Ye cannae change the laws of physics, Captain

This calls for a miracle.

or a pump

A week long pub crawl?

Both good suggestions

Burton on trent?

tidying the bench/dining table?

Found it - was the scalefour Society lever frame - all in two boxes and complete, surprisingly for me. Now just measuring to make sure the room is right.

And dining table now semi-visible (the bottom half)

Calling in 'Help me Find the Dining Table Again Team' before she gets home

After seeing your workbench at last years members day I thought that you were well organised. Hmmm...

But this is non-modelling tools I'm finding. They were spirited away by my son several years ago and I thought it was my imagination that I once bought them. But now have duplicates.
