Thread: Man Caves

Why is it called Oche?


'Oche' as a word meaning the throwing line that a dart player stands behind to throw his or her darts is comparatively recent, being introduced by the British Darts Organisation in the mid-1970s. ... The actual word is believed to be derived from Old Flemish meaning a 'notch' or 'nick'

Every day's a school day.

Electrified all ready for the disco party...

i hope that is not going to end up the Chitty equivalent of Loops Jaaaaaaaggggg boot.

I've got a Thai Port scarf. Wanted to put a few up on the roof but so hard to find in Thailand.

Quick tour / update of me man cave(s)...

Criminally underused pool table and frequently used flat screen:





Me bar:





Then over to me cars and stuff:





And finally the storage room that I'm definitely maybe probably gonna get around to tidying up one of these days:





However that day shall not be today.

You've got a pool as well right? Do you use it much? A bit different but when we lived in a condo with a pool we hardly ever used it.

And my bike. Hardly use that either...

You have got to display those cars somehow.

Yep, use it pretty much daily currently.

It's starting to just get that wee bit too cold now though. Another couple weeks and I'll likely only be in if I stumble in drunk.

Trying to work out what to do there.

Shelves as is? Cabinet and take out of the boxes?

Not sure yet.

Here's the pool incidentally... 5x20 and about 1.7 deep I think:



It's quite funny because for a while there it was described as a 'paddling pool' over on TD OnlyFans because I guess that was somehow supposed to be a devastating put down or something by a few posters who I'm pretty certain wouldn't be able to stand up in it.

Literally and figuratively over their heads.

That's a pretty teeny flat screen, and the spacious man cave makes it look even smaller. Time for an upgrade I would think. Nice spot though.

Wuss . . . come back to NZ and experience 'a wee bit too cold' for the pool

I think you’ve just given TD OnlyFans their talking point for the next month!

And rightly so. That man cave is bigger than my living room, and I have a huge TV. They cost less than a good night out these days. And yes, I'm jealous he has a man cave. Gotta be a millionaire to have one where I live.

^ Yep, I've had to settle for a cupboard now, or a 'Mantry'... I shoulda got LT to patent that



Who wants to sit outside in the fucking cold anyway

Is a side effect of downsizing to a mantry that you have to drink shrunken beers also, looks like a Pamtry to me.

Mmm, warm Stella.

Mix it with the Dettol for an added kick

I see the urinal top right and who in their right mind buys a window vac

It's cold in that cupboard. Could be colder actually but another couple of weeks

Splashed out on 4 plush bar stools today, only a £100 second hand...

And a rather unique set of beer mats..

My only gripe is the Boddingtons beer one should have been Foden not Sterling!!

Not been swimming for nearly two years now because of Covid.
