Stone me, there's a 100mm* diameter hole in the wall in the kitchen.
And tomorrow I'll need to make another one in a different wall.
Easy, it ain't.
But we're getting there gradually.

I remember getting on the 7:28 to Swansea a couple of weeks ago when some old fart (not me) started railing about all these bikes taking up space where people could sit.Originally posted by mudskipper View PostTrain number 3. Altercation with lady who'd piled her luggage up in the bike bit. Feeling stressed now.
The bikes were neatly parked in the bike space.
I don't think the old fart is a regular commuter on the 07:28.

Memo to self: a 5kg drill actually weighs knocking on for 11lbs.
i.e. it's fecking heavy.
Memo to self: when drilling fecking big holes in brick walls, do try to remember to find the dust mask before you start. Brick dust doesn't taste pleasant.
Memo to self: do try to organise things so that brick dust doesn't cover the entire fecking kitchen.

Night all.

I is knackered, cut 3 lawns, a hedge, & drilled a fecking big hole in a wall.
The things I do on my holidays.

There was a waitress pad at the end of the bar in the pub, on which was written (sideways):DEFINATELY
I COULD OF
I pointed to it as the barmaid brought my pint, saying "What's this, a list of egregious usages that are ******* annoying?"
"Yes," she cried, "YES! You see, this is why we love you!" and shook my hand
