Building work

MBAOSPW has many ideas, always to be acted on in the interest of survival, the latest being wouldn't it be a good idea to have a book case at the top of the stairs. This we all know is code for its about time you fixed the damage caused by those cowboys who fitted the bathroom, re decorate the landing and lay a new floor to stop anyone falling onto you while cooking. So in a brief lull of paid work yesterday the final part of the lets put a bookcase at the top of the stairs was enacted and a new floor laid by yours truly. Sharp eyed observers will note new floor in newly decorated and repaired landing and total absence of bookcase. That is because once yours truly had finished and had wrestled the bookcase up the narrow stair case not built with any intention of allowing the free passage of furniture MBAOSPW decided it looked better in RRMk2's bedroom, which as we all know is code. 
Speaking of building work my latest obsession (The Australian Light Horse charge) has resulted in me building a model of Beersheba Mosque as a backdrop to the little men I've painted to inhabit the world.
Meanwhile the iron will applied to my desire to lose 1/3 of my body mass is being tested by the boys who are celebrating lockdown the sequel by baking
lots on non diet cakes.
So while they eat I paint and pretend that the last thing I want is a chocolate  cup cake covered in unicorn icing.
