You could at least have bought a bit extra petrol and done mine for me too.

So I carefully placed all the freshly sharpened pencils in the special holder on my desk,arranging them on order of graphite density [as anyone would],then put the shavings carefully into my front-opening fire. Wow-WHAT an eventful night!
A boring but nevertheless true story.

Did you know that carpenter's pencils are that size and shape for a reason? Apart from preventing the pencil rolling away, the pencil is exactly half an inch wide by a quarter of an inch thick and so can be used as a measure of those sizes should the need arise. They can also by sharpened in a variety of ways to perform different functions.

Just another snippet to regale (bore) your grandchildren with. Remember. You heard it here first.

Maybe, but think of the advantages. You won't be able to take them off so you can clean them while in the bath or shower thus saving the water that would have been used in your washing machine.

As an aside, are they black nylon or black silk?

Just asking for a friend.

It's their Vitamins they're taking, Rhian - or hormones in the water supply.

Dongle's the same. Too frisky by half, these men!

Now then, I am about to report some young tomato plants.
That is more boring.

Spider has moved onto my cutting mat - which is a shame - as I want to use it!

I need him to spin a web across the craft room window to keep the wasps out - there are quite a few lurking out there!

I would also like to use the cutting mat!

Re: The OFF really boring thread

Can we see a photo of said spider? I don’t believe it’s as humongous as you make it out to be. It would have scuttled away and hidden by now.
