That's the easy bit.

Find a Stanley knife.

It turns out Ikea boxes are easy to do with one's bare hands: although they're rock solid when being used, once they're empty all the joints (which are glued, not stapled) can be split by running one's index finger along inside them, and the flat box can then easily be folded into a nice compact bundle for carting down to the bin

Well there we are then.

That was £85 down the swanee.

The central heating with added radweld is now completely depressurised and there's an overwhelming pong of wet earth coming from under the floor in the front room office.

How the feck I'm going to be able to move it all I really don't know.

Maybe knock a doorway into next door.

Despite the theory of the plumber that the wet patch on the wall has nothing to do with the leak, I suspect it's got a fecking great deal to do with the leak.

Not to mention that the other side of the wall is bone dry, whereas this side has been exposed to something that's stripped the paint off the skirting board.

Whoever installed the central heating decided that he'd drill two angled holes down into the cavity under the front room floor rather than doing the obvious & drilling vertically down through the hall floor (which, to be fair, is parquet covered with carpet).

This is going to run and run, I suspect, since it'll take me at least a week to dismantle enough to raise floorboards.

Deep & abiding joy.

Not.

That all sounds like a right pain

Morning all.

Oh yes.

After carting 25 years of Wireless World & assorted drills & other tools upstairs to get some space, my knees are complaining today.

Where's the voltarol?
