Thread: Ideas needed please.........

  1. #1

    Default Ideas needed please.........

    Okay folks I need a little help. As you all know Weeboyagee has been a star and is letting me freeload for a little while and stay with him plus kids and oh did I mention Ive just bought three rabbits. Anyway to say thanks I have decided to renovate a little for him . He went away last week and I painted his livingroom He was so surprised and pleased he was a little speechless....I think he liked it .

    I need some suggestions on where to renovate next ......any ideas .....keep it clean. Hes not back for a day or two so it has to be something simple..If it was you what would you appreciate being done for you ...or not.

    How about doing the kitchen in a nice smoky grey colour, you could do it while cooking dinner.

    Oh forgot to mention the kitchen was terracota but I dont do terracota so I have already painted that Natural Saffron..... he muttered a bit but soon got used to it. He also had tongue and groove in the bathroom but oopss thats firewood now. I think he loves having me around it makes things more interesting for him.

    No wonder he keeps on dissappearing for days on end. He's probably scared to come home.

    I'd love someone to tidy the garden up, paint the entire house, clean the drains, clean all the windows, clear the gutters etc. I'd appreciate that

    Hey, what a good idea. I was thinking I could do with a new house. I'll put the dogs and cats out tomorrow if that's ok and I'll move all my own stuff in on Tuesday.

    You'd think his organ would be essential for a good weekend away.
