Did you check the fuse box?I think my house is haunted...we use fans here (I mean to circulate the air - not like people to cheer when things are accomplished) but twice now within 4 years a fan won't work. I did the reset (unplug) and nothing.
No, I don't have ladders. I'd give you a bunk up though.Did you check the fuse box?![]()
Probably the bottom bunk as l don't like heights.Top or bottom bunk?

This is how you feed a Christmas cake. If it was good enough for the guy who won Bake Off several years ago, then it's good enough for me![]()
I'm spoken for in more ways than oneAre you single and willing to mingle?
The corn is as high as an elephant's eye,About forty years ago, my father bought a small pine tree and, after Christmas, planted it in a corner of the garden. On my way to Father's funeral, I went past the old house. The tree was still there. It must have been getting close to 100 feet tall![]()

Thank God for the firewood and the fact that your house was not damaged.When my father returned from two years in Australia, he wanted an Australian tree in his garden to remind him.
he went to a eucalyptus specialist and bought a tree they assured him would grow to 25 feet and then stop.
By 1987 it had reached 180 feet and was still growing. The local council asked him to do something about it because 'it was a hazard to aviation'.
He had got an estimate from a tree surgeon to cut it down and remove it at a cost of £200.
But then the 1987 hurricane happened. The tree broke into 3 pieces and neatly stacked itself. Job done!
His house wasn't; mine was. I lost about one-third of the roof. The neighbour's trees cartwheeled through my garden destroying their fence and mine. Slates smashed the conservatory roof and a gable started to fall off. My house insurance (after £100 excess) covered the lot.Thank God for the firewood and the fact that your house was not damaged.
Just popped in for the first time in a long time. Hello and welcome to the boards Busty_sub. I assume you meant to say 'fellow' Uk residents..although I quite like the idea of a hello and a feel. Would it be a quick feel by way of introduction or a more lingering one?Hi all, I'm new there, so thiught I would say hello to feel UK residents.
Still trying to learn how to navigate the site
But your comments about Christmas trees made me smile as I love Christmas and decorating!
Welcome to the boards and this thread. I'd ask for a feel, but I bet your the wrong side of the river.Goddammit! Damn auto correct!
Yeah offering a feel would be a sure fire way to attract
all the deviants!
Thank you for the welcome though... and welcome back!

Haha I don't do South of the river...Welcome to the boards and this thread. I'd ask for a feel, but I bet your the wrong side of the river.![]()
Me neither.Haha I don't do South of the river...
Gosh, it sounds so Chekhov.going to be sorting the xmas tree soon... pretty much decided which one it'll be and with all this rain we've been having it should come up fairly easily *fingers crossed*
this year i'm hoping to get it up with the roots so i can replant it afterwards. We'll see. We use the cedar saplings which look very pretty dressed but aren't as sturdy as regular xmas tree types, so i have to be more restrained with the decorating.
Before all that, though, we have to finish chainsawing the 60' fallen tree that came down across 3 strawberry rows and stacking the firewood.![]()
Oh the other ChekhovGosh, it sounds so Chekhov.![]()
