Hammer and Tong

These two have been up to something. We will call them Hammer and Tong."I'm going to run the bearers from that point to this point at 2.4metre intervals. Blah,blah, blah..."
Before

Oh, look! We are building an ark! Except it's not raining much and you are not Noah and I don't want any more animals.
After

It began when I awoke to find a shrub missing out the front and string everywhere. Were the boys building new volleyball courts to garrotte their mother as they did in the great back yard volleyball net garrotte of August?
Before

"If I insert some stirrups and another joist to the left of slot B, blah, blah..."
So this is what men do to relax and unwind on their holidays. I love the sound of power saws in the morning.
Stay tuned to see what eventuates out the front. This man should have had more Lego as a child. I am going somewhere quiet!

  6. Deb: It is a bit like Groundhog Day isn't it?

    Zigsma: My sister found that driving through Warwick on the side of the road and thought it was a bit too retro for her place. I thank her.

  7. I hope that the new ark provides shelter and we can sit on the front porch with tea - haven't done that in ages!
