What about bringing down furniture should you wish to move?

How clever, but do you have to be careful not to bang your head when going downstairs?

Nonnie you just made me inhale my tea & shortbread champagne & rich vanilla malt cake filled and frosted with silky Swiss meringue wink

It is positioned on the landing where the handrail goes across. It has a louvre door and it looks like it was always there. You cant tell where the wall was before as they finished it off with plasterboards.

I am no techie or I would take a photo of it to show you..

This is a photo I found on the Internet. Hope this explains.

My cupboard is finished off looking flush where theirs is not.

I think I know what you mean Alea I don't have real fun- we laughed at our antics at Zumba Gold this morning but that's not what you mean I think. As for comedians well only something like HIGNFY gets a wry smile out of me. Cant remember when I laughed until I cried. I don't have girly nights out with too much chardonnay like I used to when I was at work - I miss those!! Yes its raining again!!! Might have an early G & T today.

Nonnie, ????. I've got no airing cupboard either. How do you get up to the New cupboard. I also find it difficult to paint the stairwell...quite dangerous.

On Saturday morning I had an airing cupboard built at the top of my stairs, across the void that we all find so difficult to decorate.

Oh deep Joy smile

For the past four years I have had to keep all the bedding in the loft since my airing cupboard in the bathroom went when we had the new bathroom put in.

If I change the beds I have to get the loft ladder down climb up, throw the clean bedding down onto the landing, and then I have to retrieve two of my cats who think it's great to go up there and play.

Then I have to go back up because I forgot a sheet, and they follow me back up again and hide when I look for them smile

On Sunday, I sorted all the sheets and duvets and throws into some sort of order. As I was putting some stuff into the cupboard I sneezed violently and spat out the gum I was chewing right into the new cupboard.

I can't find it smile

You don't have to let it get you down. At my exercise class this morning (all over 60) we all had a very good laugh.
Perhaps you are just mixing with the wrong people.

Has life got serious? Is it the age I live in or the age I am? I just don't seem to have a lot of laughs or fun!!
Look at children running in the park, babies playing with a toy, puppies or kittens chasing their tails, listen to teenagers on the train and what they all seem to have in common is their joie de vivre.
The best I seem to get is a cup of tea and a shortbread biscuit at the garden centre with my friend (don't get me wrong, a dear friend and exceedingly good shortbread) but it doesn't exactly set the world on fire.
Comedians regularly fail to make me laugh, jokes fall flat.
Oh and it is RAINING AGAIN
AIBU???
hmm
