Grump of the day

[jackpoint]

It's turning into a gratuitous cat photo thread....
Our grump is this old bu@@er has eaten most of the chicken and ham from the pizza

And still wants more :lol:

 

[jocelyn plummer]

Super pictures of cats--cheered up what has been a very very wet day in North Norfolk--grump----

 

[Zebra]

Please everybody stop posting such enlarged photos of such implacable, hungry looking cats, it's making me feel quite nervous, particularly the one licking its lips.

Sorry Matthew. Just one last set of pussy pictures taken today shortly after I tripped over the trailing lead of the angle grinder and fell down on the side I've got the new hip so this does qualify as a Grump. I've nearly, well almost, finished laying the new patio for herself but the specifications keep changing... :roll:

I bet you only fell over because you were talking to your little furry friends and not watching where you were going! :lol: :lol:

Thank goodness we don't have a censorship algorithm on the forum.

Grump: grouting is boring.

 

[Feltwell]

No, creating holes is.

Yes, it's predictable, but SOMEONE had to say it so it may as well be me......

 

[jocelyn plummer]

No, waiting for our log burner is ---------any day soon I hope it's getting chilly in the evenings!

Henry has left home. He got a job at my friends' house, took his bags and went. The house feels empty without him. Now I've made a lovely meal of some dust, and there's no-one here to eat it.
Here he is in happier times.

 

[Penners]

Well, just look at the mess he created! I think you're better off without him.

Henry has left home.

Well, I said goodbye to my cement mixer yesterday, after nearly five years of close interaction. Mind you, I never got around to giving it/him/her a name. The list of its achievements is long; certainly buying one and selling it on was a great saving on hire costs, not to mention the hassle/cost of delivery and collection.

 

[Penners]

I don't think I've used my cement mixer for ten years, but I'd never get rid of it. It's one of those things that - when you need it, you need it. And renting one for a day would probably cost me as much I spent to buy it, decades ago.

I had to abandon my cement mixer at our previous house.
Discovered at the last minute it wouldn't go through the side gate I'd built since buying the mixer.
Left it at the bottom of the garden. Dare say the new owners were pleased
Huh.

Zebra. It's a shallow world. Henry has been a keen contributor to this forum for a long time and all it took was one dismissal of his services from Penners and we've already moved onto cement mixers. Clearly this forum prefers making a mess to clearing it up. So long as your friends house is dirtier than yours, Henry has gone to a better place.

Well, if you didn't know that already, TD, I'm very glad that you've now cottoned on to it.

When Mrs P shows people my workshop, she always says, "This is where my husband makes things. Yesterday he made a mess, today he's making a noise."

How I laugh..... :evil:

Oh yes, I'm more than capable of spending two minutes making a mess and two years clearing it up. Even the dog gets fed up when his ball keeps disappearing down various voids. Unfortunately I made the stupid mistake of proclaiming this "The Year of the House" and that all visible eyesores would be fixed before Christmas. I have a funny feeling I'm not the only one!

Why oh why is it that everything must be done twice, because the first time you faarque it up, and so, without a moment's hesitation (your instincts are honed now, after years of this stuff), you pull it out again, thinking "The folks on PP would never let me get away with that!What was I thinking?!" So, it must all be done again, in a much more time-consuming way, with materials which you had once, but gave away, thinking that you wouldn't need any more of those.
Sigh.
If only Henry were here........

Why? What would you do twice to him?

Excellent, Mrs P.
