Please Stand By

Regular readers may have noticed a relative scarcity of posts in the last while. Fear not I haven't actually given up my hobby just run into persistent, recurring , domestic  logistical issues regarding a reliable supply of hot and cold running water.  Somehow even when not actually exercising the power of colourful language on inanimate objects its been hard to focus on other things apart from a few moments of painting to calm my nerves. ( The refurbished British are now up to three units)

  1. Ahh yes "the power of colourful language on inanimate objects". I've used it often and to no avail. I guess it just makes me feel better. I think I curse the most doing plumbing.

  2. Water does rank slightly ahead of blogging and painting. I suppose you could use the time to threaten some of your more poorly behaving units with being melted down for solder for the plumbing project.

    1. Luckily no solduring this time., all rubber and clamps. Maybe I should get some of those kinky wired war figures. Ilsa et al.

  4. Ross,

    Colorful language and spell casting have little effect on inanimate objects. Overwhelming physical violence is what is needed.

    Helpfully yours,

    Chris

    1. Well I did put a torch to the rubber piping, does that count?

  5. Damn real life! There have been a few outbreak of that here too. Keep smiling. Or swearing.
