What should Leon do?!

Gentlemen,
It has struck me like a train that we have missed the only answer, maybe because the thought of it sends shivers into the soul of every married man....

The DIY list that is presented as our beloveds leave the house.

You know the one, all the little jobs that need doing, that actually cost a fortune and take all day!

Shudder.

But have you noticed....The jobs that you think will take all day.....Often go really smoothly....and only take a half an hour or so ?
Yet the LITTLE, LITTLE jobs.....The ones you think will only take five minutes, take for fekking EVER, and drive you completely INSANE.

Cheers - Phil.

But none of them actually NEED to be done and you never actually agreed to do them just either neglected to say no at the time when it was brought up or did and was ignored.

Probably not !
The one I always remember is changing a simple light switch......What could go wrong ?
Swap wire for wire......5 minutes.....Tops
HAH !
The oik that had put the original in place had left less than NO slack on the wires in the little box......In fact the wires were stretched and pulled back once unscrewed......No way they'd reach to the fixings in the new unit....Had to run in new wiring from the attic....Think that took me about 4 hours in the end.
I was a cross little bunny.

And other methods of putting up shelving

Do me a favour !!
'No more nails' is far safer.
No chance of drilling through a cable that isn't anywhere NEAR where you expect it to be....'Cos it's coming down the wall at a 45 degree angle.
Got the tee-shirt.....Thanks for the reminder 'F'....I'd forgotten about that particular 'quick and easy' job.
Bah ! Humbug !
'Spose it's funny now...Wasn't at the time !
(Somewhere NOW, I've got one of those doo-dads that tells you where cables are.....Wonder where that is ?)
Cheers - Phil.

Takeaways are definitely on the cards, and I might even push myself to a beer!  I've got some work-related bits which need doing as well (not casting, stuff I can do at home), like the newsletter, updated Top 10 requests, Smoggy stuff, etc.  So I'll get BoB watched while I'm doing those. 

First job on Sunday will be getting the Sci-Fi pics up as well!
