Quote: Tuumble @ 1st November 2013, 5:28 PM GMTHa! The ironing board debate started when my lady told me off for putting HER ironing board back in HER cupboard the pointy way up. Glad I'm not the only one who thinks I'm right to have it that way.
Got to admit I'm more intrigued by the 'lady friend' development than I am by the fixtures and fittings inventory 
I'm fascinated by the baking trays. Are you really going to spend your out-of-work time making little fairy buns?
AND I STILL DON'T SEE A BOTTLE OPENER.
P.S. If this wumman stacks her ironing board with the pointy end at the bottom, get rid of her. It bodes ill, believe me.
'My lady' ?
You a Hell's Angel then T ?
Seeing as you now have a well documented account of your experiences from the past few months, why not compile a little book on the matter and shill out your pain for a bit of cash on how to survive life as a young and sexy bachelor?
Good idea Lee.
I wouldn't open with the inventory though...

A few pics from the far from finished abode...
I've got a sofa bed, armchair, rug, coffee table and a bookcase for the lounge coming over the next day or two and some vouchers for things like a wardrobe for the bedroom so it'll begin to look more homely by the weekend. 
Aw, it's cute. I like!
Although of course is beige like every other flat built in the last 10 years. Could you repaint, if the mood took you?
Love the wooden floors.
Thanks zooo.
I must say I'm a bit all over the place today. It really feels like I've got three lives at the moment: One is this new 'bachelor' life on my own at the flat, another with the children at the old place and a third with my new lady at her house.
You have a nice writers desk, you should write something like poetry
Oh Frankie Goes to Hollywood
I bought your albums are dead good
You told me to relax when I want to come
I tried it with a noose it was most fun
And if you find yourself in my hood
Come visit I have treacle pud
There got you started

Without wishing to sound over involved and slightly obsessed, you really DO need a bathmat.
But seriously, congrats. Living on your own is just the best thing ever.
I cannot even begin to tell you what I am doing right now whilst typing this. It is truly scandalous.
But it doesn't matter - because I am doing it whilst sitting on the kitchen floor of my VERY OWN FLAT. No-one can walk in. Except the local constabulary, I suppose.
Easy wipe floors might come in handy!
It looks very nice Tuumble.
If Sootyj can write you a dreadful poem........
The boxes full, the rooms quite bare
No memories of the life WE shared
A covered bed, a single chair
I tell myself I'm happy there
The kettle here, the TV there
No telling if I'm really scared
The bed is made, the chair a pair
I tell myself, I'm happy there
The boxes gone, the rooms have flair
New memories of MY life are there
I'm in MY bed, I'm on MY chair
I KNOW that I am happy there
Thats actually rather good Our Will.
Do you write many perms.
