    Strimmed & cut the grass, did some weeding, repaired a wall, pressure washed the patio, had neighbours round for a BBQ, got messily drunk then went to band practice in preparation for a gig tonight.
    And got sunburnt.

    tomorrow I've got to finish off painting the lounge and might have a bbq in the evening with some beers
    Sunday will be jobs and stuff like that
    No BBQ or painting in the lounge.
    However I decided to trace and try and fault find why the phone sockets in most rooms are buggered.
    It turned into a right mess. So a tip to screw fix. 100m roll of cable and decided o do it all from scratch.
    I now have dial tone in two further sockets, plus the ability to move the router out of the lounge and back into the office

    Loads of other things done also, so quite a successful weekend

    You are thinking about MF & NLYUK we can climb the stairs on our own.

    Rubbed down, filled & varnished.

    They look lovely, match the doors.

    Just need a new oak floor now.

    No plumbing done

    Plants planted.

    Workshop tidied

    Priorities now fluid (I do what Mrs V tells me)

    Travelling to the poor benighted land of my birth to shake my head in pity and pick up some bargains with my hard currency.

    Landrover needs some urgent gaffer tape and jubillee clip attention until the pukkah intercooler hose arrives.
    The smokescreen novelty has worn off.
