The Purple Pineapple

No, they're compulsory adornments at Bupa dahhhling.

 

Going private that's a bit posh

 

Ha ha, as if!! All that money went on my new engine last year. And besides, what would my bezzie Jeremy Corbyn think!

 

The mention of bupa has confused me
No worries it's easily done during the solstice

 

I was meant to be getting 'easily confused' at a friends solstice party tonight. Maybe if I pop enough pills I'll imagine I'm actually there.

 

All doctor para can recommend if your laid up for a while without much you can do is colouring books
It might seem daft but they help distract your mind in a helpful way

 

Yep, I've seen those adult colouring books, they look cool. I like hand sewing and making crafts so I won't get bored. And I can always witter nonsense to you lot, to keep me amused.

 

I've found over the years there's always a spare ear on tlb

 

Sweet. What, in a Jeffrey Dahmer sort of way?

 

Not sure who that is I will ask google

In a sort of there's normally someone else glad of a natter or happy to lend a bit of advice
Tlb is like a commune without the mung beans and communal washing

 

Your explanation of a spare ear is a lot nicer than mine.

However I do like a good mung bean.

 

I want to know your version of a spare ear
Talk about planting a seed

 

I prefer bean sprouts to beans

 

Um, he was a bit of an odd little man who liked to eat human parts. So I assume he kept a spare ear in his fridge for late night munchies or something.

 

Ah right
Nowt sexual then

 

Who knows with these cannibal types. They like to make their own rules up.

 

Just like their recipes.

 

Some of my best tasting meals were made up on the spot
I do like cooking

 

I finally bit the bullet and started on the roof lining today. I decided to wedge the ply into groove at the edge of the roof rather than fixing J trim all the way around. Didn't have a clue how/if it was going to work or what it would look like. But there's only one way to find out!

Didn't get loads done (I'll blame the gammy leg) and I started on the easiest bit, the middle part, but it went much better than I was expecting. I only had to take it out, trim a little off and refit a couple of times. Got the hang of 'popping' the curved wood up pretty easily. Couldn't understand how that was going to work at all, but it did! And I think it's going to look ok.

As well as getting the ply to fit snuggly I have to bear in mind leaving enough of a gap for the insulation to fit in behind. So there's still going to be lots of faffing about getting it all to fit exactly but I've got a good idea how to do it now.

 

I'm going to use high temperature spray glue to fix the foil bubble wrap to the roof. But do I attach the insulation to the bubble wrap or to the back of the ply? If I've got enough bubble wrap, I want to do a layer on the ply as well to protect the bare wood from moisture.
