Good afternoon peeps, sorry this is quick today. Its been World War 3 here. Last night we had a flood which originated from our new en-suite. Its the first time we have used the new shower....well OMG the plumber hadn't connected the pipe work together properly and last night we were the proud owners of a new water feature in our Dining room. The water from the hot tape poured through the ceiling and light fittings. It blew the electric which thankfully is back on now but we still have no water on as yet.
This is a pic of my dining room ceiling, its about a 24" square hole that had to be cut away to make it safe as most of this had already covered the new carpet that was only fitted 3 weeks ago
This is the hole in the new en-suite wall so the plumber could get to the pipe work.
and im still smiling!!!!
On a lighter note Lol Today is the start of a new Quixotic Challenge
Altering
Ive had this clipboard kicking around for a couple of years and thought it would be a nice item to have in my craft room to hold my important stuff. As you can see not allot on there yet
sorry the pics are a bit pants but I took them when we had no lighting
I have used my fav Kit from Echo Park A walk in the park, I found a couple of pieces of cork which came in useful for the pin board and some wooden pegs which i decorated with a strip of Echo Park dp.
Sorry i have to go now, there's a builder, plumber and electrician here all wanting Coffee!
Thank you so much for visiting me today, if you leave me some love so i know you were here i can pop over and say Hi to you too.
If you have the time we would love to see what you come up with for our Altering challenge at Quixotic

Nice to have hopped on here, lovely cards, and feel sorry for the disaster you have been into! hope it all gets sorted out soon! HUgs always! G
Love what you have done with your clipboard. You poor thing. How come these things always happen after you've bought new items and never when you have things that need replacing. Keep smiling and hopefully it will get sorted quickly for you x
Oh no, that's awful, you've not had a good time with the en-suite have you? I bet the holiday feels like it was seven years ago now! Your clip board is fab. Why am I suprised?! ;)

That's brilliant! What a fab idea! Love 'n' hugs, Mel xx
You poor thing - what a total pain in the b*tt. Bet you wanted to say a few things to the plumber.
Love your clipboard, might have to go and 'borrow' one of my daughters and have a go!
Hope things are sorted for you soon.

Oh you poor thing, Emma. I remember reading about the work in progress - you must be miserable. I do hope you get the bathroom and the damaged dining room fixed quickly, easily and at someone else's expense! Hugs, Lesley
