Been speaking in the phone this morning to a customer who has just out of hospital after a knee operation and therefore confined to barracks.
He said his wife is going to tidy up his workshop for him today. :eeeeek::shocking:
I'm guessing it must still be the effects of the anesthetic

"Found lots of wood with holes drilled in them. I've stacked them neatly in order of size in the corner darling. And I've made those sharp pointy things safe with my emery board. They were dangerous!"

This is beginning to sound like the Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner then all averred etc reminded me of when one of our babes was delivered the custom then was new mums had a room the babes were collected placed in a nursery and brought to the the mothers for feeds altogether a wonderful time for up to two weeks.

Whilst she was there I did an Org and Management in our kitchen pots nearest the stove etc. on return SWMBO screamed loudly put it back needless to say I was flat out remembering that so now I know my place.
That baby is now well into 55 yrs so sometimes better let it happen.

I think I may be in trouble with letting the Mrs assist with the new shed build. It doesn't arrive until the 6th August and she is already talking about what to put in her section !

Reminds me of one line from a song "There may be trouble ahead"
