Today I have received my Sahbrock tshirt s, thank you BIG Hoggy!! Also thanks to help from Ian I can actually see the new fangled forum properly, thank you too! AND have had a massive clear out in the attic - 10 bags for charity shops and 6 for recycling! Yay Catherine, we now have a vomiting smilie!! Have just discovered that I can only see the forum correctly if I log in and tap on 'desktop' (as Ian advised) but when I log out it goes back to blue and white again! BTW, the avatar picture doesn't look like me, I may be old, fat and ugly but I do have hair and haven't got a pointy head!! ARF!! Pleased to hear it's going well.. hope you have really great neighbors at your new place too... I can't see your avatar pic, don't think you look like you say...you looked great btw do you know where our karma has vanished to ? Cheers Addy! So glad you can't see the avatar pic, what comes up on your computer then? Hadn't noticed the karma was missing before. Also there doesn't appear to be a 'back to top' feature either!? Most irritating. I hope we have good neighbours too - although we are used to strange ones, cannabis farms, Gypsies and bad landlords!

What comes up is just a default pic, lots of people seem to have the same one as you on here when they haven't added their own avatar.. Looks like we might have got a 'like' option rather than the karma... I rather liked the karma .. is this the new ninja smiley

Took my trailer to get the tyre replaced which went pop on Saturday. Thankfully it did so only 500 yards from my destination and seeing as I didn't have tools to do anything with it anyway I carried on at a slow pace because I was carrying a bale of silage in the back . My reflections upon the incident were:- 1) Don't panic and remain positive. If it had happened on the motorway I would have been in deep and expensive thingmy. 2) I have spent the last couple of years looking at that tyre and its aged and persihed walls wondering when it would burst and it might have been better to change it a bit sooner than try to get the last mile out of it. 3) A tyre soon shreds into dust when you run on it flat even over a short distance.

Yes, he is an unusual person, very nice looking too! Don't know if Placebo are still together now. They were a good band. The avatar was a photo taken on my eldest's birthday in February, glad you like it.

Not done much today, had a few visitors and Gareth helped by getting some shopping. Been a beautiful day so sat in the garden for a while. Hoping to go to Ikea tomorrow, will be nice to get out for a while. Whatever you are doing, fellow Sahbsters, be it sunny or rainy, have a wonderful weekend.

Great photo of Brian Molko and David Bowie, Addy. Hope the dratted wasps didn't come back and you got your music played. I didn't go out on the scooter after, maybe tomorrow as its supposed to be a nice day again. Nice to see the sun with his hat on, especially on a Monday.

Looking forward to the photos of how your getting on with it. Hope Wolfie was pleased with his bickies and squeakies, bless him, he's so cute. Must try harder to get out tomorrow even though there is ironing to do now, lol! I hate ironing!

Sahbrock.. health and money permitting ..got a letter from the doctor to go for another chest X-ray. The material is for the top that goes over the top with the stripy sleeves, I couldn't find the right colour so I didn't start making..but this is the material I just bought could be a touch greener I think

The colours as they come up on my phone look identical, but I seem to remember the top was a tad more green, but its a very good compromise I think anyway, you could spend months if not longer looking for an exact match! Sorry to hear you've got to go for another chest X-ray, fingers crossed everything will be ok. Hope to see you in November at Sahbrock all being well Meant to say, hasn't it been busy on here today! Pity it's not people posting, but so long as they are reading that's something.

A bit more green yes ...Could experiment and give the fabric a light wash with green acrylic me thinks might do the trick Yes true, there seems to be a lot of guests sometimes..when I put some Sahb photos on immediately there was 11 guests

Have a brilliant bank holiday weekend to everyone who has got one - don't know if there is one North of The Border. If there isn't, sorry, not rubbing your noses in it. Hope it's not a "traditional" bank holiday ~ rain, DIY and/or furniture shopping (keep an eye on those 'deals'!) In Kington and hoping to be able to scooter down to the Co-op, may not sound like much, but it's FREEDOM to me! Whatever your doing have a good one! Maybe post and tell?
