Who is on Ellen today then?

No idea.

Absolutely. His southern accent is so soothing and comforting, he can cure the common cold by simply reading a Radio Rentals catalogue out loud.

Certainly rated the 5 and a bit weeks spent travelling in the NT and the weather up there.

Didn't rate returning home and work and the cold weather

Under no disillusions as to how long this is going to take, having renovated 2 bathrooms and 2 kitchens I'm aware things :

1 - Never go as smoothly as you hope
2 - Never happen as quickly as you hope
3 - Always cost more than you expect
4 - Mrs Boon is extremely impatient
5 - I drink lots
6 - 5 has nothing to do with renovations


My wife and I are best friends but have learnt that we just simply cannot perform tasks together, whenever we have a big job to do we assign roles and don't interfere or offer advice to each other, it's frustrating but it seems to work.

I'm left shaking my head a lot of the times but beer fixes everything.

Ouch, when we face that again it will be me doing the outside, her doing the inside.

Last attempt was a trip to Virginia nursery so I could set the vegie garden up and we could jazz the front yard up.

I wanted shrubs that could end up meeting each other, she wanted flowers, she won.

I finished my vegie set up and went to do the front, I spaced out the flowers so they'd end up meeting up, she whinged and wanted to cluster them at intervals, she won.

I planted them how she wanted them knowing what the end result would be, they no longer exist.

I stood in the Ikea kitchen section openly sobbing with my face in my hands repeatedly saying "I just want to get out of here" after about 2 hours of listening to some wanker "design consultant" offer Mrs Boon every option known to mankind despite both of us having a fair idea of what we were after.

Created quite the scene.

Smelt too fresh in there and everyone's too lazy to do stuff like that.

Being approached by a company to personally set up and run a distribution centre in SA for them.

National company.

Fingers crossed it all works out.

Good to know that it's not just me doing that at Ikea, although I generally do it 1:55 earlier.
