Afternoon gents! Apologies for my prolonged absence from the pub. I decided I'd try and distance myself from anything cancer related for a while, in the hope that I would be able to forget about it. Needless to say it didn't work. The ongoing incontinence and ED issues post surgery, make it impossible to forget, and I was just missing out on the banter on here! So I'll pull up a bar stool, and have a nice flat pint of Bass please.
Kev, I see you expecting another grandchild. Congratulations mate, I've got four in my collection so far, and they keep me sane. I see you are also re-flooring a bathroom. I ripped up the tatty laminate in our en-suite the other week, thoroughly expecting to be having to replace it. But surprisingly, the floorboards didn't look too bad given their age (old bit of the house is Circa 1817), so I am currently renovating them instead of covering them up.
Phil - it's good to see you are feeling a bit better at the minute. Glad to hear you are wielding a paint brush again, as it means you must be on the mend for now. I just spent the weekend painting our utility room, after promising to do it when we move in two and a half years ago....😂
Adrian, looking at the clock, you're probably in the real pub by now, you jammy sod. Have one for me! That's a great idea with the kids trees. We've got a Horse Chestnut growing in a pot, from a conker picked up last year. I'd just assumed we would eventually have to get shot of it, or plant it in the garden to annoy whoever ends up living in our house in years to come.
Cheers all
Ian.
