Today, between rather a lot, I managed to complete the multi-million pound refurb of the Office
[center][/center]
The finishing touches have been.......
New Work Top - old door Work Top Covering - carpet remnant found in skip outside Carpet Store Shelving - (part old PC base and Shelving found in skip covered in birds doings)
Below
Side Cabinet - Mum's old Kitchen Wall Unit turned upside down, top again from Leo's chucked out PC Base Unit.
Filing Trays - as per Chicken Dropping trays, Bread Baskets, but these are clean(ish)
[center][/center] Unseen
Heater - found abandoned outside Ashford Town FC three seasons back.
Paid for = PC and Accessories of course, Office Chair (I'm out here a long time), Vinyl Flooring bartered down from £15 to £5, the light which is £2.49 job from Wilko's and a VERY loud Burglar Alarm plus other 'little secrets' !
AND.....do you know, I'm quite proud of it !!

Richard, Surely you could have got that finished for the dtl freedom party then we could have had a joint freedom/office warming party. Oh well never mind just let us know when the office warming party is and I am sure I can persuade a few freinds to come along
I 'made' a few Desk Pen Holders a few years back. The one on the right is the one above, but I shortened the handle. I seem to recall choosing it because it looked like a teapot
Just another one of those strange things we do now and again !
I hope Raven is impressed !!!!

Oh I can see now from the close up! I wondered if it was a small wooden watering can. I love the pen holder too. Will be showing Mr Rubyhen to see if he can have a go. Wouldn't want him to be bored this weekend

How the other half live. I have £1.99 glasses from Lid el's and an old mug for a pen holder. My chair gives up the ghost and collapses and I have a little radiator under the desk and only one screen. Richard's fame has made him so posh but it still looks good.
Posh - not the word. If I carry on the rest of the winter like last week, I shall amount £78.60 by the time I go back to Cricket.
I like little fancies now and again. I made a load of Dowsing Pendulums from bits of hazel a few years back. They're around somewhere, I'll post them in 'Hobbies' if I find them.
