Death of a Tumble Dryer Ventilation Hose.............


Hi Alf here,


Well what can I say - Mindy has been getting better over the last few months until yesterday that is.


Pinkies spent the weekend doing odd jobs as they always do and Dad decided to fit the vent on the tumble dryer so that it goes straight outside from the utility room and not through the window. This way they can have it on Economy Seven - (Cheap skates!!!).


Anyway it was all fitted nicely and it came through the wall into our muppet pen behind a flap. Imagine Dad's horror when he came home at lunchtime yesterday to see it stretched out and wrecked all over the floor! I kid you not.......The mad woman had got hold of it - still haven't worked out how yet though, and pulled it through the wall - it's a wonder she didn't pull the dryer off the shelf in the utility and wrenched the lot through - nothing left inside at all! She was jumping around barking all excited when he got home, I walked off and left them to discuss it together. I think she was sorry because she was quiet last night, but back to her stupid self this morning!


Anyway I'll leave you with a picture of it and her - although she didn't want to sit next to it and she refused to look at the camera!!!


See you all soon - I'm off to wrap a present for my girl!

Sunday Morning Stroll





























































Hello everyone,

Well here we are again - another post. Not too much has been going on in the land of Airedale Adventures as the weather has been very very cold and very very foggy - so foggy I thought I was going blind!

We were supposed to be meeting up with my girlfriend Molly and her brother Taffy last Saturday but we got fogged out and it wasn't really deemed safe to drive so far just incase we got lost etc.,!! Ha don't they realise I know the way!

Anyway - we've had some beautiful Sunday morning walks recently because it's been frosty and very nice walking weather.

Yesterday we got up as it was getting light and set off up the road in the muppet mobile - parked in a layby and set off over the fields across public footpaths. The views were spectacular and Mindy even managed to get us breakfast! (A little mousey) if you look closely enough at the picture you can see it's innards that obviously popped out when she bit it! Ergh such a revolting lady!

Onto the building works. Nothing much has been happening there either!!!! We had to wait for EON to come and move the electric meter, it was in the way of the new kitchen and so had to be moved back outside - it cost a fortune and we had to wait ages! Then the electrican came check dad's wiring over, the plasterboarding is finished and the plasterer is coming on Saturday! The kitchen should be here before Christmas - but to be honest we aren't holding our breath as it should have been ready mid September!!! Anyway at least we know it's in the process of being built!

Ooh yes - just remembered - Dad fitted the flue for the log burner in the new kitchen and it's wonderful - the heat of it is amazing - Dad makes it up for me before bed and mum puts my basket in front of it for me - I look like a king!!! (I'll try and get a picture of me in it for you all!!!).

The pinkies are going to Cornwall just before Christmas to order the stone tiles for the kitchen floor - hopefully we are going too - well I haven't heard the 'K' word mentioned so we must be!!

Anyway - hope you like the pics - catch you all soon.
