I don't really like how duct tape wears as handle material but it is an option. I've got some narrow black gorilla tape that would do the job. I've probably got shrink tube somewhere too but I can't find it right now due to the chaos in the garage. I need to finish some projects, get the apples into racks and then I'll have space to find it. Probably I'm building some cloud shaped shelves for my son's room and I'm hoping to get them painted and fitted tomorrow if I get enough sleep to find the energy.

My father in law thinks it's hilarious that I don't swear. I get it from my dad who I've only heard swearing a few times in my whole life and even then it's pretty mild stuff. When he swears though you know things are getting bad I have a pretty foul mouth in private though
My mother rarely swore and when she did it was never stronger than damn or bugger. She used to do all the decorating at home and I came in one evening when she was wall papering. I said "Do your realise that piece is upside down?" Her response was "Sh*t up a f***ing gum tree". The look on her face when she realised what she'd said was priceless and I was in a heap on the floor laughing at her. Better still was the fact that there was nothing wrong with the wallpaper.
Good old weather forcast. Today was supposed to be rainy by lunchtime so I rushed a bunch of garden jobs this morning before it got too wet. By the time the rain was due I was down to a t-shirt sweating away in bright sunshine. The lawn was just dry enough to cut and I filled four big green waste bags with prunings too. I didn't get the garage cleared though or the shelves finished

Hot here too @wild edges so t-shirt and car windows open as we ran errands between a big nursery and a garden centre and an SM selling fuel at cost price ..... Run ragged.
NO doubt you'll get rain for painting clouds soon enough.

It makes me wonder how people who are stuck abroad after Thomas Cook went under have managed to afford a 2+ week holiday if they all seem to be poor single parents living hand to mouth or similar sob stories? Are you sure you just didn't bother with travel insurance and want a free flight home?

Free for them maybe, not free for tax payers money that had to pay it. Thomas Cook paid themselves plenty of bonuses and were laughing all the way to the bank.

Exactly @Lyn. Need better regulations on directors' and shareholders' bonuses witha firm foundaton in profit and sustainability of a company before any are handed out.
