Send GOM here. I have a multitude of bushes which need to be murdered and messes which need to be evicted. After a couple of weeks here, he'd have no energy to set foot in your Cave of Creativity.<BR/><BR/>Stomper's idea about a model railway is also a good one. What about a garden railway, one which would have to be built outside?<BR/><BR/>So sorry about the horrid itching. Is there no justice or mercy?Tanya Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15919250829858831002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33880433.post-71536317696055033402008-07-10T10:26:00.000+10:002008-07-10T10:26:00.000+10:00My hubby cleans up behind me and it drives me craz...My hubby cleans up behind me and it drives me crazy.

I can certainly relate to the perils of having a tidy hubby -- mine drives me nuts putting things away -- I'll be using something, go into another room for a minute and return to find it put away. Grrr! I hope those light treatments work soon!Thimbleannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03650582809426872051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33880433.post-52445094903219045702008-07-09T02:11:00.000+10:002008-07-09T02:11:00.000+10:00I'm with you on the 'mess' thing - I have a clean ...I'm with you on the 'mess' thing - I have a clean but untidy home.
