I have never had a lava lamp before so I could not walk past this totally unnecessary impulse buy this evening while still a bit drunk from my beach-side beverages.Quote:

Takes a while to get going as the liquid has to warm up but it is utterly hypnotizing once it is in motion.

I got my daughter the same one a couple of years ago. It gets so hot...

Wouldn’t be the ‘60s without a sippy bird.

Chitty could save schlepping around recreating a physical room , drop a tab stick on some Hendrix on the Dansette,sorted
My own nest may inspiral yer carpets or Didsbury druggets,

Luckily fo rmy aged synapses Lurv is the drug
You may feel the gravy booby vibe in some Loon pants , platform heels and an Afghan coat/trance

Five? Jesus. I have three cats and that is more than enough. This is the result of giving the gentlest cat his medication last night:Quote:

Cool idea.
Nearly bought this Bang Olufsen vintage turntable, but I've got enough turntables in the house..
https://teakdoor.com/attachment.php?...8&d=1744139196
Instead bought a load of paint..
https://teakdoor.com/attachment.php?...9&d=1744139241
It was that hot today that the paint was curdling.
So much for a Small Faces inspired Lazy Sunday afternoon.
Ceiling done..

Disclaimer : No drugs were consumed in the painting of this ceiling.
Considering buying this nice addition to the room the problem is I'd have to collect from ruddy Doncaster..
https://teakdoor.com/attachments/art...555_chrome-jpg
I wonder if they'll throw in the clock as its very similar to Dirks suggestion and it would match the nest of Teak tables I already have.
Negotiate first, view later.
Wise words!
Progress is slowly getting there, the canvas is now ready for the interesting and fun stuff.
Plenty of chipping away at the project today god I hate planing..
https://teakdoor.com/attachment.php?...5&d=1745272913
But I do love a bank holiday yellow sticker deal..

Next up, blinds..
Which reminds me of an old joke..
How do you make a Venitian blind?
Poke him in the eye!
Or check out the colours on these bad boys...

Progress is speeding up now I've recovered from my trapped nerve, tbh I reckon laying the carpet did it last Sunday.
It's not advisable to cha cha slide the carpet into the corners and Sills at my time of life.
Been splashing out on a 60's style globe bar this week among other items..
https://teakdoor.com/attachment.php?...4&d=1745854593
A vintage ice container and some chunky glass tankards as well as a load of old retro frames for the sixties soul artist portraits..

A fathers TV-chair is a must

"The purpose of the "wings" was to shield the occupant of the chair from drafts and to trap the heat from a fireplace in the area where the person would be sitting."
plus support neck duringa siesta.Quote:

Sounds like Julie Walters with the tea.
The blonde Babs sounds familiar.
