Done, doing, and someday.
Doing now
- Hello again. New house, same mess.
Normal Guy Dave is gone. This is what replaced it, and why.

- So I wrote a book…
How a bedtime story I couldn't remember the next morning turned into Tales of The Hiole.
- Lockdown Loot
Secret Santa, but every fortnight, for a fiver, until lockdown ends. Who fancies a game?
- Office space
Building a home office in the dining room out of B&Q boards, half a dining table, and a £30 bamboo screen. Reversible, mostly.
- Normal sponge cake
Four ingredients, one bowl, mix the life out of it. Plus why marshmallows in a cake was a stupid idea.
- Bake with mother
Emma hates my baking style, so she taught the kids to do it 'properly'. Whisk hips, bowl hats, and a cake that sank.
- Breaking out of the box (room) pt 2
Building a cubby hole that fit the gap perfectly, just not through the door. My 30 minute job that took the whole afternoon.
- Breaking out of the box (room)
Three joiners ghosted me, B&Q lost half my delivery twice, and then lockdown happened. Part one of extending the box room.
- Polar Bear Walk
Bought a random item off Amazon to spice up the daily walk. Nothing to see here, just a polar bear pushing a buggy.
- The Jam Doughnut challenge
Eat a sugared jam doughnut in 60 seconds without licking, wiping or clearing your lips. Sounds easy. It is not.
- Fuzzy Bunny challenge
Giant marshmallows, one at a time, and you have to say 'Fuzzy Bunny' after each one. Emma set the target.
- The cracker challenge
Three dry cream crackers in under 60 seconds. Emma got competitive after losing the Fuzzy Bunny. Emma failed, by the way.
