We have water going down the back of the sink and it's running down the wall behind into the cupboard below .This is very complicated :)
The sink is only a gap of about an inch and half from the tiled splashback and has been set into a beechwood worktop .Over time this has started to go all grotty ,the grout is all nasty and any water that gets spashed around is running down the back of it and under the lip of the sink into the cupboard .
This usually only happens when Mr S is doing any washing up .I've tested it with a glass of water :)
My son is going to fit a new sink and worktop for us ....but ..
he's full of good intentions but we may have to wait a while ....
In the meantime is there some sort of waterproof tape that I can buy to shore up this gap pro tem.

I believe every word of it!
Oh silly me, perhaps Sherlock did retire to East Dean! What do I know??
hahaha !
Woofy, Picky or Tarquin anyone there? I need to know how to "right click to save to desktop" a photo on my Tablet, but there is nothing to right click.
where is the photo? in an email? on the net or what?
on FB and when I touch it it enlarges but there is no way that I can see to send it either desktop or email.

Can't help you Neti ..sorry .I'm still trying to find my way around my bongbinger .I have managed to download some apps and books ,do emailing etc and have taken one photo ...lol. Picky is in Cambs atm.
The weather never really got going here today .I hope it warms up for Wednesday as I'm going boating again .This time to Toad Hole Cottage at How Hill.
Hope you've all had a good day ..Oight Oight .
dont tap it, put your finger on snd hold it there and you will get a dialogue pop up that offers copy or save, thats if its the same as ipad which i think it is
apparently there are floods and stuff down here, a friend was flying to Sardinia but it was postponed till tomorrow. We've not had a drop here, though, bone dry. I got all my family history books in the mail so parcelled a dozen of them off to interested relations; I hope they appreciate my hard work.

jno jnr hears about his job application tomorrow - apprently there were only two people really in the running, but there are two jobs going, so it's looking hopeful (though I am not uncrossing my fingers just yet). It's between a rather tedious admin job and a meet-the-people type of job he'd love, but the former is more senior and pays more, so he will take it if offered, the poor thing
that's mega silly jno. DH and I used to go to a cafe in cheddar that is no longer there. In its window there was a poster saying "Its National Hot Dog Week" DH had first seen it there when he was 15 and the last time we visited and it was still there he was 40! Something of a long week!
Sorry if I am incoherent. had a lovely day today pottering and shopping but shughy has had an anxious evening and I can't work out why which worries me. He's not ill, just worried and I hate it.
have a lovely time tomorrow Shaney. Jno I hope the mexico can sort you. Big fingers crossed for Jno jnr and a wave for everyone else.

I wish him all the best Jno .He'll probably be happier with the lower paid job by the sound of it but needs must etc .

Waves back to Woofy .I hope your pooch soon settles down and you don't get a restless night .Give him a pat from me xx
Good morning all.

Good luck jno jnr.

Normal day here.
Morning all...sunny and fresh. I saw the flash floods dahn sarf on the tele. My grandad had a brother in Ruislip, I could have family there....they can send me some rain, we haven't had a drop.

Neti I would have said the same as woofy, hope you've fathomed it out.

Good luck jno jnr, whichever of the jobs he gets I'm sure it'll work out well in the end.
Who's got the wd40? I think I was too busy yesterday and I couldn't move this morning.
well, you have to demonstrate ambition, shaney, I never did and ended my "career" pretty much where I started - by that time I was getting bored with it but nobody would promote me, so I was pleased to leave. I was never mad about the job anyway but needed the money to support OH in a nice job that didn't pay much and a child with a big appetite. jno jnr likewise has a wedding coming up and they hope kids after that.

Morning all
It's been bright but clouded up now .Hope you're all Ok .
Yes I know exactly what you mean Jno .I'm glad my working days are over in some respects .I know that Mr S was more than happy to get away from corporate waffle and dodgy business practices !
I'm all back to front today, Shaney hope you are having a lovely sail !
Nothing is working on sending photo to desktop or anywhere, so have gone onto big desktop and done it from there!
Question Author
I'm not sailing until tomorow Neti !
All I've done today is sail into Boots
I've had an awful rash under my bosoms for some while .
I sometimes get this in the hot weather and it usually clears up pdq with Lanacane but this it isn't clearing up and has gone all nasty and blistery.They gave me some antifungal cream .I felt really embarrassed .
I always wash thoroughly and am fussy about personal hygiene so can't understand why it hasn't cleared up.
There's always something.. ..tut .
