Drizzling here slightly,and very warm, I'm going to spend the day sorting out my tools, I have about 6 tool boxes and I've more or less got 2 or 3 of everything,it's got to the stage where if I need a tool I have to search and usually find them all in the same box.

Signman

Don't you have a box for your most used tools that you can just grab on the way out to a job?

Phil

Yes Phil, I'm supposed to have 3 of those, but they are all over the place now, as you know we all have our favourite tools which we tend to grab each time we need something, I love my old tools made of mahogoney and brass and tend to stick with those, I now need a serious clear out and scale down to sort things out.
Catch you all later.

The wife went out with the granddaughter to the cattery where she works voluntary and came back with a pedigree Somali Cat which of course has to be housed with us as her parents have told her if she brings any more animals home then she will be the one that goes to make room for them. I haven't had chance to get a decent photo yet as it is in hiding and only rarely comes out of his hiding place after attacking the dog.

It's OK it's not a giant, that a child's armchair it is on, actually she has been told that it would be too small to show as it is the runt of the litter.

ahh phil..hes lovely...i had the same problem in feb when the 12 week old kitten found its way to our back garden...she was scared witless and spent the first 5 or 6 days cowering behind the tv in the living room....she had our other 4 cats to get used to as well..took about 2 months for her to feel safe and now she is just part of the family....must take another pics of her and post it...

Looks like it's in camoflage Phil.
Well that's it I now have my carpentry box,my electrical box, and my plumbing box, plus a box of general all round tools, and of course my signwriting kit, which never varies.
Still raining here,lunch is calling,homemade tomato and basil soup with crusty rolls,followed by blackcurrant pie.

John

If if were down to me he could have it, its already attacked me and the dog. All you can get from the women is "well it's scared" So was I when it got his claws in me and the dog ran.
