    That's a relief. However, 1 of them can cause a bit of a problem.

    Today will be mainly nursing Tricky as she's picked up another bug, so only Shorty and I on the school run.
    Then head scratching over possible major excavation of septic tank overflow. The joys.

    Funny that.
    The route itself involves shifting a 12 x 8 shed with a wood store on the side of it which ain't funny.

    Wood store is full - 16ft by 4ft x 5 ft.

    Bollox.
    Can some one direct an MF up here with explosives?

    Can't go over it, can't go under it, maybe go round it with a new pipe?

    I think with this creative burst, you should build a Victorian style pumping station.
    Although it just pumps sewage, you could create a beautiful space.

    I'll send one up when I'm back - I won't tell you he's on his way so it'll be a surprise.

    Anyway, finalising packing, so I'll see you guys on the flipside - will drop intermittently in and out today but after that its an MF free zone for a bit.

    It’s like that now is it, exclude seano. I was first pick by the team school captains at rounders once, first pick!

    Now you have to admit, that sounds like a job for someone else.

    Beavering away in the 'caverna', nice and toasty due to the wall mounted electric heater under my desk and I have tea/toast supplies to see me through till lunch. Unfortunately there is no khazi and a Pinno style septic tank would be a bit hard to justify as the house is only 30 yards away.

    Onwards to more tax mitigation.

    Tell them to speed things up.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.
