With the world championship and constructors championship already in the bag I was hoping Hamilton would sit today's GP out and let the hard done by Russell have another drive, but no...

Very wet and squelchy here chez Casa Reynard.
I am sat here listening to the Grand Prix on the radio while having a
and two crumpets with peanut butter.
My sinuses are rather snotified today.

Rode a 200km audax yesterday round the war memorials of Hertfordshire. Some great winter lights after sunset.

Absolutely lovely sunrise through the trees outside the office window this morning. Other than that, grey damp and drinking lots of coffee & squash.
Thinking of closing up early and stopping at Mum's on the way home as she wants me to post a couple of cards for her.

You can usually move them a bit, but if you have to tilt them too far, or get them up or down stairs, they can concertina and instead of a rectangular wardrobe, you have a parallelogram and that'll mean your frocks won't hang right!The wardrobe in my bedroom is older than me*, and it might be time for a new one.
I have looked at the Next Rauch range and found this one. Buy Fargo Hinged 2 Door Wardrobe With Mirror from the Next UK online shop
It says that once it is built it cannot be moved without taking it apart. I can understand that if you are moving house, but what about when you have a new carpet installed? Can you move them around a room? I would be buying, possibly, two of these with a chest of drawers in between.
I have also looked at the Rauch website, they are a German brand, but seem only to sell "fitted" furniture through their stockists. I do not want fitted furniture, because I envisage moving in sometime in the future, and anyway sometimes I like to move furniture around. @fossyant has experience with building things, I think.

Bad news for @Reynard! Due to bad weather teatime has been postponed
So if decorate, ie paint the walls, then install the wardrobes, they can be moved across a bedroom, for a carpet to be fitted. To move house, they need to be dismantled. Thank you. I have also now found the details of the wardrobes on the Rauch website, and there is a dealer/stockist about fifteen miles away, a local (ish) furniture shop rather than using Next.

This would be me...
The only thing that holds flat pack wardrobes in shape is the panels tacked in on the back!
When I've moved, them to lay flooring, I checked the pins/tacks to make sure they're still in properly. A tap with a small hammer will resecure them.

My neighbours across the road are moving today. I feel really sorry for them!
Cookists..
A question. I'm simmering an unsmoked gammon joint before putting it in the oven. (30 minutes, Gas Mk6 if you want to know)
Can/should I use the water as a stock base for a pea and ham soup? I was thinking of grating some potatoes, rinsing them and mixing with some cornflour as a thickener, and using the slow cooker.
Sound OK? 🤔

I'm adding some black pepper, but no more salt.
Hopefully it'll be tasty!

@Speicher as @PeteXXX says, once built they are not designed to be moved around like to old style wardrobes were, if careful you can move them around a room, but be very careful also not to pull the plugs out of the screws. As you build them you could use glue to build in more strength, but that might screw you up if wish to move house with them in the future if you have to dismantle them
