It's dry here now too but the rain woke me up at 3.50 this morning. I thought someone was moving stuff around in the garden. It was only when I was awake enough to realise there isn't really anything to move that I realised it was rain!

Got up for a widdle at 4.30am. Really thought I'd stay awake, but the open window with the rain lashing down sent me back to sleep until 9ish. Still hate the rain though.

Ah, I must've got it from you! Waiting for the drier to finish then it's nurefen+ and bed for me.

I wonder if there really is a tie between the damp and aches in joints etc. I've never properly looked into it..

Either have I, but I wonder if it might have more to do with joints reacting to atmospheric pressure and the damp correlating with that rather than the damp itself having some direct action on the joints.

Colleague had to do a check flight with the authorities to be approved as our new company examiner, so I got “volunteered” to be the person under test even though I’m not due a check for 3 more months :)

Well it turned into one of those everything that can do wrong days, customer 4 hours late, thunderstorm activity at the destination and this is an arabian summer, a sandstorm, and then by the time we got there the wind couldn’t decide which direction it wanted to blow from, agh... take me off the volunteer list :)

Now I have a bottle of Absolute in my grubby hands, couldn’t touch it all week as i was on standby, now I’m going to enjoy it and maybe smuggle some home to the missus.

You deserve a drink after that, smurf!

There called tabbies mam 😸 😸

In other news, today is my builders last day in my house, not sure if he knows this yet, but he had promised to be done by tonight, painters finished yesterday so that was the last high cost task, now considering the outstanding snag list there is no way he is going to finish his tasks in one day, but 53 weeks is ENOUGH.

So come Saturday the locks will be changed and Tuesday a new alarm system, unfortunately I’m still stuck with that RED/WHITE American style diner kitchen, but its worth it to get rid of this idiot.

My little one is a tabby but interestingly when she rolls over on her back for a belly rub, she has a hint of (I only know this word from Seph) a calico look to her fur.
Tabby cat look is my favourite kind. They remind me of their bigger cat cousins.
The wind here is mad now. Came out of nowhere. Was just in the bathroom getting ready for bed and it started. There's a driving rain with it too. Another depressing bank holiday so

I think I suggested this to you before Smurf but rather than try rip those tiles off the wall, there's a special tile paint to be got. My mam did hers a few years ago. It was a tedious job but definitely better than replacing tiles.

smurfjed

@PurpleMountain, thank you, that my wife‘s approach, but considering that it wasn’t close to what we originally asked for, i had no problem asking the contractor to replace them.

Alas, I lost )

You'd get a mansion built in that time!

It pains me to say it, but if you were there all the time you'd have been able to call them out. Builders take the piss when they're dealing with a woman. If you ever decide on major work again have a contract drawn up with a penalty clause so it'll cost then to overrun.
