Hi Sanji

Er....Nope.

Couldnt get it under the kids beds.

They couldnt decide whether they wanted to sleep on top or bottom bunks,so they ended up with a set of bunks each.
Biggest has a double bed at the bottom and a single on the top.

We stood the legs on blocks to get more space under them so I could go to B and Q.

B and Q had some 1/2 inch thick Conti? boards. I got two at 3ft wide and 5 at 6 inches wide.
I screwed the 6 inch bits on the sides of the 3 ft bits and made two big shallow 5 ft long boxes.
The kids drag these out from under their beds and play with bionicles and lego etc in them, then clear their rooms by pushing them back under their beds.

There would be ructions if I used the space.

Anyhow, I need most of the stuff in the lounge.
Its got my book shelves in there, 2 tellies, one for playstations and the other for Nicolodeon - and CSI if the kids ever go to bed...
Oh and a 3 seater, a 2 seater and two armchairs.

And a load of junk.

We also keep a couple of masts and sails in there.

Good Idea though
 
Thank You GSF Gaz

I am very proud of them. I know that they are useless at being "Normal", as am I, but they are absolutely brilliant at what they are good at.

Your lady likes hammocks?

Overnight?

Oh dear.

How are you supposed to escape for a while?

Im lucky, mine stayed for 3 days and has now gone home.
 
Hmmm....

Fire.

A Hobo stove.

Sounds like fun.

Now.

Where did I put that pillar drill....
 
Weylands one.

Looks like he knew what he was doing....

Never mind. I will make up for that.
 
Found it.

Its on the workbench in the middle of the kitchen under all the clothes.

I think they must get all that grease on their scool uniforms at school. Must remember to complain.

I put some sockets in the slots on the platform so the pot would rotate on it.

Didnt work.

I need a pretty little window now....

Couldnt get the biro to write on it, so I had to go steal one of the kids pencils.

I suppose I should have drilled the holes so that I left the line....

Difficult to do after that much whiskey...

Still, didnt miss by too much

Couldnt find the tin snips (steel plate scissors), but I found these garden snips....

They do look similar, honest!

Now that Ive carefully hacked along the dotted lines....

I need to carefully file the edges flat.

Er.....

Im not just about to take my wood grinding disk off my angle grinder

Im really not that rough, Honest. I dont use the wood one for shaping rudders or for flattening out boat damage.

Looks like I was too drunk to find a grinding disk. That one is a cutting disk. You can tell because its flat.

It also looks worn out.

I suppose it would sort of fit in the opening....

Oh dear...
 
Oh goooood!

Looks like I didnt end up with a pic of the hole getting smoothed out.

So, I must have done it with the file.

Going to have to find out where you get the smug smiling icon smily things from....

Ooooh!

The missing tin of Quality Street!

Wondered where it went.

Er....

It looks upside down.

Empty?

Oh dear....

Wondered why the scissors wouldnt even cut paper..

Ive been blaming the kids.

a-dscf1869.jpg
 
lol

Just noticed that it says "Recycling starts here" on the bottom of that tin.

They have No Idea....
 
er.....

a-dscf1874.jpg


Oh right!

Boring holes in it....

Why didnt I think of that.

Oh... I wold have been very careful while doing that while I was drunk, because if the drill jams in the tin, it could spin the tin and cut me....
