The Pot Bellied Cook and the three legged dog...

THERES MORE TO THIS TALE ON OUR  HAIRY PLUG MONSTER BLOGSPOT PAGE
LINK BELOW:-


In an old wooden tavern, quite close to a bog
Lives a pot bellied cook and a three legged dog
He spends all his days making green smelly cheese
While the three legged dog sits and scratches his fleas


High up in a tower, lives the Old Purple Bint 
Who drinks nothing but smoothies of onion and mint
She grows all her food in a pair of old boots
And makes soap from the juice of the dandelion root

But cook wasn’t happy to live all alone
He wanted to share the green cheese in his home 
So he closed up the tavern and set foot outside 
With his three legged dog he looked for a bride

To the Old Purple Bint in the tower he strolled
With some cheese in a sock, feeling ever so bold
He called from the ground to the window above
And proclaimed from his knees his intentions of love.


“My darling, my sugar, my sweetheart, my dear
I have lived all alone for so many a year
I have come to ask you, would you marry me please
And stand by my side with my dog and his fleas”

OFF AGAIN @ 2.30 !!! 27th July 2010

Had a very  busy week - there was only a few days to carry on with the Masterbed makeover!!
but I have managed to get what need doing and we're nearly there,  tilers been -mmmm a bit on the slow side but doing a nice job, Jason the plumbers been and fitted the new Bisque (seta) radiator but unfortunately HE can't carry on with the en-suite  as the tiler hasn't  finished the area for Jason it does seem tobe taking a long time mind you if I hadn't booked away days so close together the project would be a lot closer to finishing (oh well - no good getting stressed)    David (the main contractor) <http://davidmarshfurniture.co.uk>  has built the wardrobes in the dressing area, also a couple in  the main bedroom and they look very nice indeed, although only from IKEA they fit floor to ceiling and not bad at all. So that was the week on the makeover.
As for Tony's Motor home that is looking FAB... it's being professional photographed on Wednesday morning then Tony will take delivery on Thursday he's so excited...  another project for him under discussion is the interior for his new Holiday Home in north Wales,  that will be a nice job to do...

Went to Finleys Birthday party (he was 4 on Saturday) the party was on Sunday and started at 11am and held at Hayfield Cricket club set in the peak district,  beautiful place, beautiful area on the edge of Buxton  went on for hours although it was all good fun for the kids running around the field and Ollie (finleys Dad) organised a Bouncy Castle that the kids loved, lots of party bits to eat made by Becky's (Finley's Mum, Grandma  and Great Granny)   - and guess what  David Musrie (a friend of Ollie's) came dressed up as Spider Man! he was so funny (he could hire himself out he was that good)  what a delight for the kids they had a ball...
I made a Lamb & Coconut curry and a Chicken curry for the Mums and Dads that stayed at the party (that went down well)  everything was gobbled up then off to  Ollie's & Beck's for yet some more cake and tea, I was completed waisted  when I got home at 8.30pm but had a great time; what you call a
'FULL ON DAY!'

Now getting packed again to go to Italy!!!  this time with David, Laura, Oskar & Elliot - Oskar is really excited,  Elliot only 4 months old won't know what's going on,   David and Oskar will be in the sea most of the time,  and me and Laura will be sitting on the beach chillin' and  watching the world go by - were taking packed lunches and a flask most days, and relaxing back at the villa in the evening on the Veranda  with home cooked food and glasses of good Vino Rosso and Presecco  'ITALY'  a great place to visit:     but before I go I have made a roast Ham for Ed to nibble on,  Sausage Casserole, and a batch of Lasagne that will keep him going and very happy until I return next week.

NOT FORGETTING -  good week so far  with sales for the Hairy Plug Monster  yippppeeee...  check out our blogspot, news, updates and purchase page <http://www.hairyplugmonster.com>  and guess what Leighroys doing a coffee morning chat with other like minded people on BBC Radio Manchester at 9.30am (this morning)   woo hoo  one to listen tooooooooo!!!!!
anyway, I've now done with wafflin' on  :-))))
 
have a great day/week/month or what ever you are doing 'ENJOY'  and don't forget any thing is possible...

BACK FROM MY HOLS...

Been slummin' again in Italy!!!!     when will it ever end?  did have a great time though and it was nice to see more members of my family who live in Valencia, Spain,   Karon, Alex & Thomas came for a  break/visit  and,  wait for it     VAL?   VAL WHOOOO!    arrr yes!!!!   (my daughter Lesley's  mother in-law who lives in Australia - mmmm'  less said the better) I have mentioned she was joining our group a couple blogs ago...     and of course my man Ed although Ed was out for the count for a day or two -  he'd been drinkin' yu'know a bit too much of the old,   wait for it   'VINO ROSSO'    in other words, very heavy red wine????    at Marcia's BBQ' - they live in Lerici on the Ligurian coast and a very nice place indeed with an outside pool bar and kitchen;   there was plenty to drink and food in abundance  -  oh!!!!   and of course,  another reason for his (oh I don't feel well mode)  - it may have been a bit of food poisening (chicken left out in the heat of the day for a couple hours - not good)  Ed is always tempted when there's food about he's a picker and anything left he will devour regardless;
so yes,   I'm back in Tuscany next week with yet other family members...

Meanwhile I'm trying very hard to carry on with the refurbishment of the masterbed and bathroom  although we've lost two days this week (returned from Italy early evening yesterday)  and there's only two days left plus next Monday -  everyone is gunna have to pull their fingers out!   a few things have been delivered;  oh by the way,  the supplier of the bathroom furniture got the loo's wrong?  but hey,  no probs as they have been replaced this morning  and will be fitted on Friday by Jason (the plumber) Phil the tiler has been in to do his bit and then all the bathroom fittings can then  be fitted.   YIPPPEEE... not long now...   Howard the electrician has marked out for the lights in the masterbed, downstairs utility and loo area I'm  extremely pleased with the look...
i  have to say,  it can be a bit traumatic waiting around for contractors!!!!!    co-ordination is the key to any project...  anyway I'll post some pics tomorrow that's if I get time to take and upload them
I have to inspect Tony's Motorhome which should by now,  nearing completion... phew,  and that would be   'another job well done... '  by kul cuthbert interiors  < http://www.kulcuthbertinteriors.co.uk/ >

have a great evening where ever you are and don't forget to read our hairy plug monster blog updates for all news and information  and wooooooo  heres the link:-

MASTERBED UPDATE 13th July 2010

Mornin'   well yes we're getting there,  been a bit slow as David's  been busy elsewhere,  although not his fault, we're off the Italy  later today for a week and don't really like anyone doing work when I'm not around;   (I know i've not been back long!  well actually nearly 4 weeks) but this time meeting up with "YEP !!!! more of my family -  Karon (daughter)  Alex (granddaughter approaching her teens) and Thomas (grandson aged 10) Oh and Val - Val is my Son-in-laws Mum  from Australia who has been travelling around England and now Europe since May  returning to OZ in August,  a remarkable Lady  and still wants to do as much travelling whilst she's still able - she's a "modern day  OAP  - GLOBE TROTTER"   (I have a lot admiration for this lady who's 75!)  almost a back packer!!  her quote "your as old as you feel" anyway she's  fit and able and spending a few days in Italy on the Ligurian coast - I believe from the 5 day weather forecast it's gunna be "HOT HOT HOT!!! " also coming from Australia Val is used to the  hot weather...won't be a problem and  gunna let her do her own thing - the thing is,   we all need breaks when we can get them!  you never know whats round the corner so take opportunities when available.  

Well, after that bit of information back to the Masterbed update...  

just a few piccs  'WORKING ON THE MASTERBED'  David checking his levels!!!!!

also let me tell you before I go - went to

Cookes Coach Builders  to check the progress on Tony"s Motor Home and it's probably a week away to being finished -  it's looking mighty fine
