I hope hubby is going to take you out dancing for your painting efforts maria ;)

“hi john.hubby only dances at weddings and hogmanay ”
That’s a shame maria. I was lucky, although I didn’t think so at the time. I was made to go to dancing classes when I was a kid. My dad’s view was if you could dance, even a little bit, you would never be short of female company.
Needless to say, as a teenager I gave it up as soon as possible.
I took it up again in my forties and still try to go on a regular basis. There is always a shortage of men and although a great many men probably think it’s a bit sissy, I love it, dressing up, night out, get to hold a few women in your arms for the evening without all the complications of going on a date :)
I've just redecorated the music room. I've done so much DIY over the last ten years I absolutely detest doing anything these days!
Still need to do the bathroom....
you should chill in your music room colin before you do the bathroom,thanx for the replys,regards maria:cool:

I've been adding bits to our house for over 20 years as the family grows, just got permission for a forth extension/ addition, really not looking forward to it now, come home from work and have to carry on working i'm getting to old for it, i wish some of our pesky the kids would get hitched, move out and save me the grief, i'm thinking of all the hifi rooms i could have :lol:
now now keep calm,and keep up the good work,hubby is a joiner,and he says he going to change our sitting room to a boat shed,so he can look at his boat all night,cause im allways in the other room droolin over my hi fi:lol:take it easy jonboy,im sure they will move out someday:)regards maria

Trying to. In fact trying to ignore the bathroom for as long as possible. My wife's not too bad, I don't get nagged much, but eventually I'll need to do it.
come home from work and have to carry on working I'm getting to old for it
Tell me about it! :0( Already knackered and you have to start on something else. Soul destroying.
hubby says he's going to change our sitting room to a boat shed
Radical! I don't like boats much. I don't like aeroplanes much either.
My next door neighbours bought a boat, a pretty large speedboad which they kept on Loch Earn. They got rid of it because it cost a fortune for something that hardly got used. Nice boat though.
lets go and turn the volume up,forget boats and DIY:cool:MARIA

I'm with you Maria & i have a beer to :eyebrows:
:cool:
Done a shed load of clearing out recently though & this room looks so much better for it :D

Yes ok but hang on a moment. You said your husband wanted to turn the living room into a boat shed? So either it must be a very small boat, or chuffin big living room!
Great concept though. I've always wanted rats in the living room :0)
Playing Lloyd Cole's Easy Pieces, man that's a good record.
boats kept in HIS double garage,which HE BUILT,sitting room is not a bad size,:)cheers maria:cool:

years ago when i was married to the first wife i got offered an organ from an old Chapel they were knocking down but i had to take the organ & pipes out myself within 2 week..I actually planned taking away part of the house upstairs floor so i could accomodate the pipes along the back wall of the living room, i did eventually come down to earth & realise i was being a bit crazy but me being me i would have done this at the time if i was on my own :eyebrows:
i bet the organ would have sounded great,it is a pity we all have to comprimise somethings:(:cool:maria
I bet the organ would have sounded great
Bit of a downer if it didn't though eh?
Can you imagine that? You spend a fortune building a massive pipe organ into your house, switch it on and it sounds rubbish!
