The buggers all sodded off and stayed with friends.
So had all day Sunday to myself, Got all the stuff I have to do for various people and proceded to use the dinning table as a workplace.
Rucks of Flatirons and the like all tastefully painted with Roses and Castles. Unfortunately also painted the table and the carpet. DEEP SH*T unless I can remove the stuff from the stuff.
MK4 came home about 1900hrs and took one look and one smell and told me "I'm telling Mum!" (Bloody little Swine!) Pointed out that this would result in her having to walk nearly two miles there and two miles back each day to school. This seems to have had the desired effect.
As the stuff I use is water based have been removing it with various combinations of cleaner and sharp knives. Table now fine and even has had two coats of Bartop varnish which will cheer the wife up as she has been moaning about the state of the table for Yonks.
The carpets proving a tad trickier but is just about back to it's original condition. This has cost me a days work but the Gypsy Caravan people in Chester said no wukking furries and I will now be starting the work for them a day late.
MK2 came in Late Monday Morning and rushed out of the house at 0830hrs late for work so she aint seen it. So, if the MK4 keeps STUM I have high hopes of getting away with it.
Blackmail.............nasty thing so it is. The cats owing to their desperate requirement for Food have Bitten the Bullet and come into the house. The scratches are healing well and worms are now a thing of the past. Ditto fleas.
Artist
