Mess!?!

It looks like mine on a good day.

You must have at least 6 inches square space on the bench.

Pretty well empty, by my standards!

I'm sorry to disagree with you, Tony. A clear workbench with all the tools and equipment put away in heir rightful places means that one can get on with the job in hand efficiently and without losing bits.

Well that's the theory anyway!

I range between immaculate tidy for 10 minutes and unhealthily untidy for a month. And don't mention looking for things. If I could have back the time I spend looking for the thing I had in my hand 20 seconds ago, I'd live forever!

I tried the "Yellow Box" system but it's only partially successful.

I'm with you, Tony.

If my bench is clear, it is only because I am about to start something else and I have moved the other things I haven't finished yet off, to get on with whatever has become a higher priority.

It is clear at the moment, because with 23 people coming tomorrow, the storage is temporarily needed by the chef.

I have to use my garage as a workshop. Not to difficult with a seven as I still have room for a bench and also some storage room. My problem is “her who must be obeyed” thinks the purpose of my bench and storage room is for her use to put anything she does not want to keep in the house. Every time I want to do a job her stuff has to be moved. I have been married to long to argue or put up a fight.

Would you believe it "Her who must be obeyed" refers to my Ruby as the toy.

That's what loft space or the bin is for john.
Well I've had a couple of half days, as it gets dark early. And the dog wants walking.

So yesterday I done a couple  of patches on the floor, and almost finished the ceiling.

And today, I finished the ceiling, just needs painting tomorrow.

And got most of the Partision wall done.

Work is alot easier once the phone is unplugged Wink
