Standing joke

Hub and I joke that everytime he decorates it's sunny, and whenever he fancies a rest, or a day out, it rains. Yesterday he started plasterboarding the wall in the conservatory which has a huge settlement crack and removing the wobbly bannisters and spindles. Yep, you guessed it, out came the sun and it was HOT! Today he's been putting a ventilation pipe in the airing cupboard to vent into the loft (new British Gas regs, one pipe not good enough!), fixing an outdoor light for a neighbour, laying some new white stones under the window and in the flowerbed out the front, and yes, it's hot again!
Monday and Tuesday will be rest days before his nightshift...get your wellies ready....

Before:


First board up!
