Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads, 30,40,50 years on.
I could help provide the material for Flaneur to write this book. Have loads of experience, ideas, insight etc, but not the patience to type well.
New tag line here:
I hunted them down, and knacked all of their families, and waited through to the next day, to knack their postman
Discussed underlay thicknesses with the carpet man today.
Post grownupness -
Carpet coming in two weeks, two sets of stairs, two landings, one living room. Taking up the old one today. Having to take a million clips out the hold the underlay down, taking forever. Little bastards.
Harvest “You’re probably best off levering them up with a flat-head screwdriver”
Filled a caravan window with gutter sealant.
Get another season out of the cunt now.
Spent my bank holiday making a cover for one of the raised beds. This evening will be spent reading up on what I can plant at this time of the year.
Got a new carpet.
Harvest Can’t beat a right good shagpile.
Gonna be decorating our back room, fitting an outside security light, fixing the rust patches on the Volvo, trying to get hold of/build a log store in the garden and get a chimney sweep in. That’s about as grown up as you can get, I reckon.

Flipping cistern is broken - wont stop filling. Can’t work out why - bloody being grown up - why can’t my dad do it for me.
Anchor Ballcock jammed.
Djpekingman Bugger knows - it seems to be working. Just keeps filling so a contsant run into the pan plus making a noise that makes me want to k1ll.
Djpekingman Could be. Bloke I once worked with, while we were fixing a constantly running toilet, told an Upper Eastside Trophy Wife she had a swollen flapper. Me and the housekeeper had tears in our eyes trying not to laugh.
Djpekingman Ballcock jammed
I’m claiming this as my new Rap name.
Anchor There’s likely an adjusting screw that controls the max height of your ball cock, but that could be a red herring. Alternatively there may be something jamming the exit open, ie it’s not reseating properly after flushing so its basically leaking water all the time. Your cistern will keep trying to replace the lost water, hence the constant running. A swollen flapper would do it.
