Utter nonsense. Frank Zappa often comes to see me, telling me stuff theres no way he could otherwise know unless hes a ghost. like how my dead pet rabbits and guinea pigs are getting on, whos on crossing duty at the river Styx at a particular time. actually I'm going to conjure him up now and send him up to give you the willies. As for me, I'm off for a baileys, spin me ead round and projectile vomit on next doors cat.
There can't be many/any old properties (ours included) that folk haven't kicked the bucket in. I wouldn't go freaking yourself out, Ms Trude. Once you've given it a good scrubbing, a lick of paint and some wallpaper, it'll be yours!
Sorry, I didn't mean to give you the willies (so to speak!)! It just made for a dramatic photo, and I'd had a Few beers after finishing my 96 hour shift! It's a cracking house....I don't know the area as it's oop north, but the place looks like a nice find! Just accept it's an old house, and don't try to make it like a soulless, modern box, with square corners and stud work walls......patch and prep it, then every time you repaint, it will look a bit better! It took me 5 years to strip all the Marmitee paper from my walls ( dangermouse, on top of batman on top of action man on top of woodchip!)... Each time I repaint, I just fill and sand a bit more!
My late Gran was very spiritual. She said " theres nothing to worry about with the dead. Its those that are alive you need to worry about"! a very wise woman.
Yes I know.....she was asking about you last time I contacted her on the Ouija....mentioned something about 'John? Joan?...or a 'Joe'...Aunty Mabel's with her...
tricky from ere ... 5 n 2 are the main voice terminals you will need to see where the other end of the cable is and copy that, that is a non standard coloured cable for telecoms, so you need to see what someone has done at the other end
Haha! They never do. Gardening is the worst and I've got a whole lawn to lay and crazy paving to lift this summer!
Problem is its a bodges ext cable running from main point in living room to bedroom and secured in a box. I can't get near the living room one due to volume of furniture and apparently I have wifi and phone in here now and no way of testing. Oh well. Ceiling to strip. Looking forward to silty water running into my armpit This ceiling paper off. Hopefully.
Here you go...nice pic here... http://www.deals4homes.co.uk/automation/phone_sockets.htm You need to wire 2, 5 and 3 (3's the ringer signal - your extensions won't ring without it). But...looks like your cabling isn't the standard BT colours, so you'll need to find the master socket to determine which colours match BT's standard stuff.
I used to get paid a fortune and travel the globe making walls look like yours for a chain of clothes stores ( we used to call them boutiques in our day) .Nice clean walls turned to water/smoked damaged, rusty pipes, mouldy tiles. Nice to see you getting rid of it. Any local latebayers who could help you out, come on folks.
