I wonder if there has been any research done on the demise of the traditional builders drink - the cup of tea - and how it has been cruelly tossed aside in favour of that young Taurine fuelled usurper - Red Bull. It's the only bloody thing that's gets us through some days, it's knocked... Continue Reading →
I have a meltdown as the water dries up…
It's been one of those weeks which seem like they will never end, culminating with a physical and emotional meltdown, very rare for me, the former especially despite a catalogue of injuries. As a typical Saggi I have to admit to having regular and spectacular emotional eruptions 🙂 The back and dead legs finally saw... Continue Reading →
Menthol in the face – not a good idea….
What a day. Tiles needed for Pjt Deano, of course, as ever, didn't have enough so a run up the M60 required as only B&Q Trafford had the right batch number. The hall and kitchen are looking FAB, and the tiles are only the polished porcelain cheapies from B&Q, £10 per m2, they go really well...

The Cotswolds Show

Unbelievably rude would-be tenant
I just had the funniest thing happen. Tenants are like buses, you wait 2 weeks with no viewings then 8 come along in a day. A flurry of activity this past couple of days on the small studio; a girl has decided she will have it, and is paying her initial deposit to secure it... Continue Reading →
