I'm being told if I don't update my e-mail signature I'm being offensive.

I've explained that I'm a happy easy going person who would hate to oppress anyone's right to feel offended.



So that's a "No" then :) :)

Telly is too low, unless it's a house full of midgets; cables look like a dog's dinner; window sill ain't straight; that radiator is so 1970s.

I like the flooring.
You have no idea of room dimensions (or much else for,that matter :) ) or how tall,we are so are in no position to comment in TV height.
Cables are disconnected and hanging loose as AV system has been removed following flood. Sorry I didn’t tidy them away in their normal out of sight position before taking the photograph for your benefit
Window sill is perfectly straight and level……I know as I installed it last week.
whatever. Although I don’t think you are in a position to cast judgement on radiators
I like the flooring but as the house is on a solid uninsulated raft it is impractical In the winter. Sadly it’s all got to come up as a result of the flood damage.

If I had I would.

yes it is. Maybe your head is wonky?
Someone also mentioned Specsavers the other day….
You have & you wouldn’t.
My head may be wonky but my eyes are level (I don’t need a spirit level when putting up shelves & always get them bob on)
Yes & you saw a pet shop next door to Specsavers.

Decided I am not going to go out to the garage for a spirit level so I can post pictures on here demonstrating how level my window sill is.

Perhaps it would have been better getting the bubble from the garage to use when you fitted the windowsill.

Your tell is a few inches above the floor. Fact.
You keep telling us you’re 6’2”, so I do know how tall you are at least. Fact.
Unless you’ve lied, which the renders everything else null and void. Fact.
Doesn‘t matter, you still have a bunch of bastards hanging out the back of your telly. Fact. (When I told you our drive was way down the list of priorities, you said it didn’t matter. Therefore, I pull the same petty card. Fact).
Your window sill is pissed as a mattress. Fact.
We replaced our crap (and too small) radiators with column rads. I am very much in a position to comment on radiators. Fact.
That‘s unfortunate about the flooring. I hope you can get it taken up by someone who knows what they’re doing so it can be re-laid.

Never mind the state of the windowsill, what I want to know is if its a squashed spider or a surface defect on one of those pieces of flooring.

It's the one sixteen down from the door frame, two towards the window, another three down and then one to the left.

As for the TV height I thought everyone on here knew Beaker was Japanese and so sits on the floor.

Purchased a 451 Smart car......

And that window sill is pissed.
At 6’2 do you lie on the floor to watch that old valve TV?
