Well. We're back now

[morphim]

Nice to hear that Paul / Cow are doing OK.
Sounds like life in the jetset for you both ; )

I'm building too (still)
Big job but phase one (making it 'weather proof' is just about done.
Phase 2 is the inside which is going to really disrupt our living space. For example: all ceilings down to be able to replace existing ceiling joists with floor joists. Move stairs. Install 1/4 tonne steel beam to take new floor etc etc.

It's camping holiday for us this year (all funds will allow but that's OK. I like camping (with a tent BTW!!))


Work not too bad but doing extension on my own most of the working day, so work has taken a bit of a back seat.

My office is in our hall at the mo, so not ideal for business.
Need to just crack on with the building so I can get my office back.

is this a building/holiday thread?

if so, garage conversion is nearly finished with inky number 2 on the way I've got to move out and inky number 1 is already 3, only holiday we've got booked is a week in Norway, work is busy and keeping me out of trouble

[cow]

Well, congrats on inky no.2! SHows how long it's all been. I think everyone's been under the radar for a while but it's good to head that everyone's busy doing this and that. Post a picture of the garage conversion Chris, and Morph, c'mon - show us what you're doing...

ps. this forum looks different

[inkworm]

is the latest of my work out, only the illustration this time and will post up photo of my new nest once it's painted and everything is in place.

Inky 1 is already 3 and what have you been doing Morph? Come to think of it what've you been up to lately Mark?

[Paul Stones]

Hi Inky mate, long time no post. Glad to hear you're keeping busy, and congratulations on the imminent arrival!

[inkworm]

Not til December does the munchkin arrive, plenty of time and been bogged down on other forums hence the lack of posts, I'll try to be good and remember this place a bit more though.

Nice to know you're still alive

[morphim]

Sorry. Forum went through a bit of a metamorphosis.
Just trying to sort out some problems which (hopefully) are sorted now.

Smilies are back, Cow.
Some had an 'e_' in the middle of their file name? What's that all about.

Good to hear about your expectation, Chris. Good luck
That illustration is terrific. Do you have a bigger version for us to scrutinise


re: my house improvements:

I started with this but wanted a more homely feel >>




But, after many arduous months of hammering, it's finally coming together >>



I've done this all on my own

[mixmyth]

I think I am back in. Anyone fancy a pint?

[morphim]

I'm very partial to Badger's 'Golden Glory' at the moment. I know this might not be everyone's 'pint of T.E.A' but I love it.
Makes everything else taste like pond water

Good to see you made it.

I think they have that in the local SM. Better have a look. Had some 'Doom Bar' (4%) yesterday. It was a bit disappointing, then I found out the brewery is owned by a Canadian brewer Molson. Recommended: Dow Bridge Micro Brewery, in Leicestershire. All ales fantastic.
