To give some background...ive been ripping out the spare room to turn it into our bedroom, our bedroom will become the spare room. Its meant upstairs has been turmoil with all sorts of furniture sat half way between no-where and anywhere, tools and decorating gear all over, etcetcetc.
Room freshly decorated all through, tv mounted on wall and 'plumbed' in, new oddments of furniture assembled, two sockets wired in either side of the bed, cables re-routed from either room through the loft including aerials, Virgin connection to computer and ethernet cable to the TV. Computer re-installed in the now spare room...2 days work, i'm cream crackered. The wife has been doing her bit, keeping tidy as much as she can, making copious amounts of tea, moving stuff, a bit of decorating etc etc.
So, i said to the wife late in the day....
'Thanks for your help BTW'
'Are you taking the mick ?'
'Nooo, i'm being serious, you've worked hard as well'......gave it a pause...then continued...'not as hard as me mind ...but not bad all the same '
In this house, thats called tombstone juggling...or dicing with death
