I want to say thanks to two great mates. Blokes I met through this forum and today went out of their way behind my back with the help of my lovely wife Sue. They schemed, plotted and planning to surprise me.
:D:D:D
Pat and Fletty while we were on our way to the Sydney GtG at Nz-carvers came in and built and assembled my new work area around my lathe.
This consists of a frame with shelves and a peg back board thanks guys I owe you both BIG time.:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:
I was sworn to secrecy.
Great stuff Ray, we better not make too many fairy jokes since they are such good hearted fairies. We won't mention the tutu and nail pouch clad crew (mind wanders back to Gus Mercurio sitting on the roof) breaking into your workshop:D:2tsup: Fantastic job fairies:U
Hah
very good
now we know why some were late to the GTG
Well done fellas - I'll hand around some greenies after I get breakfast for the late sleeper
can you hear him "Daad, II'mm huungry!" :doh:

Hey There,

Hi Mods if possible can you change the title and word Fairies to Elves please??

Fairies wear boots - Black Sabbath

It was a pleasure to help with my fellow fairy and the other co conspirator.
It was done without thought of reward as the sense of community by being a member of this board and helping fellow members is reward enough.

Thanks Yonnee :2tsup:
:mods:Get the name wrong again and I'll change it back...:sneaky2: or to something completely different!!:q
:fixed:
What a great surprise to come home to! I only wish some mates would come around with a few brooms while I'm out.
Good on ya guys.
All good! :2tsup:Quote:

Sometimes this forum seems to just grow good folk.
Well done to the elves and their elven queen!
I duno, once a fairy always a fairy, once your tinker has been belled thats it!!:D Still good blokes though:2tsup:
I really do appreciate the promotion from fairy to elf ..... but I'm not sure about having my tinker belled :o .....
Claw, I hope you really aren't going back to work now.
Many thanks to those who offered help and I think the shelves are only the first part of the shed makeover so there's still plenty to do AND I didn't get to have any of Sue's cake!
good night all, fletty
Good on ya(s). :2tsup:
I love this forum. :U
I'm going to PM my address to a few people, just in case. Oh and i will be away from the 12th to the......never mind.
I have always been told there are two sides to every story............I have heard both :U
I wish I'd been a fly on the wall watching Fletty & Pat put this together, load, unload and assemble it.
Seems Pat had an early start to get to Fletty's place by 7am :o on Sunday morning when most people are rolling over for their 2nd sleep. Fletty who in some sort of wisdom had started making and cutting the frame on Saturday.:rolleyes:
Most of the pre-work was done by the time Pat arrived at 7am they then decided breakfast would be a good idea awaiting our departure to Nz-carvers for the GtG. Bacon, eggs toast and coffee not home made but in town :roll:
Thanks again gents after clean up shelves have been put to use and I am gaining some room. :2tsup:
Fletty was the perfect host . . . I had to have a good look at his shed, which took over an hour . . . an hour or so to quietly do some cuts . . . breakie for a relaxing hour . . . we had to make sure someone was out, didn't we :U
As I see it, I got to play in 3 sheds:;, oh and commit an act of sheer bastardry on a mate :q
Well done guys.:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup: Now where do I post my wish list.?:)
I tried to but there is some sort of limit on file sizes :doh:Quote:
