    Hello everyone. 

    I've been rubbing down woodwork & filling holes today, in preparation for OH wielding a paintbrush in the hall - this is a major achievement, because he's not been well enough to contemplate finishing the task for well over a year.  Onwards and upwards...   :)

    We took a company to the Small Claims court a number of years ago, @punkdoc.  @tui34 is right - if you win, your fee is paid by the side which loses.  Good luck!

    Thank you @Uff Makes me so pleased to hear someone praising the delivery men, my son drives 250 miles everyday to do his deliveries.

    @tui34 no, I hadn't seen your link about a furet, it was on a different thread that I wasn't following. I've found it and noted the web page. Thank you. I have heard of a furet though.
