A well placed mat covers the wanton vandalism quite well! Don't tell anyone though - the carpet like the house belongs to the parish :-)<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('593','PaddyAnglican'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> Primal – I feel your pain – My own office is so cluttered that when the floorboards had to be lifted recently to run pipes to our new bathroom I decided to cut the carpet rather than move the furniture and piles of bumph!

But seeing as you have: A neighbour converted the garage into a granny-flat for her daughter and new husband. But they don't have room for all of their stuff and won't until they get permission to build their own house or money to buy one. Things are like that around here - we have keys for each others houses, we swap tools, cars sometimes, and in this case, we share storage. (Not with the new neighbours though. Most of them I couldn't even name). FMC - I'm beginning to feel your pain. Sam - Okay. I'll get some bandages today. I'm a dab hand at cutting myself at the best of times. But, yeah, finding stuff might be a bit of craic. Bock - Just one exterior wall, this time. I did all the interior stuff myself a couple of years back. I reckon I didn't reach your level (having read of your <a href="http://bocktherobber.com/2007/04/diy" rel="nofollow">experiences</a>) in all skills, but cursing, drinking, falling down and hand-gashing I have to a T.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('589','Primal Sneeze'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> Medbh – I told you not to ask.

FMC – I’m beginning to feel your pain.

Sam – Okay. I’ll get some bandages today. I’m a dab hand at cutting myself at the best of times. But, yeah, finding stuff might be a bit of craic.

Oh my life! Don't tell me demolishing house-interior already! This I have done for the last three years. For three years I have lived in settling dust on everything always without stop no matter how you clean. I have become proficient at plumbing, carpentry, cursing, breakfast-roll eating, plastering,drinking, falling down, kitchen-building, hand-gashing, wiring, solar-panel-fitting and much shit besides.

It'll try your patience and test your faith and you might emerge from the experience a very different man. However long you think any particular job will take - clearing, moving stuff etc. be prepared to add another day onto it. And get bandages because you <i>will</i> gash yourself on something. And potent liquor - make sure and have plenty of potent liquor about the place. A hip flask is an excellent idea. On the other hand you might have all sorts of fun rediscovering old books and CDs and stuff you haven't seen for years. !<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('587','problemchildbride'); return false;">Reply</a> </div> Sympathies, friend.
