I'm afraid you are exactly right, Kerren Dear !

61 I may be, but according to my grand-children, I'm just a big funny kid, AND, I wouldn't have it nay other way.

Thanks in advance for all your greetings - I may not be making much sense later on today. :drinkers: :drinkers: :drinkers:

Guess what Jan got me for my birthday ! I bet none of you will guess. Only clue - It had to be constructed !

Constructed? Is that the same as erected? :twisted: I don't think I want to know any more :oops:

OK - let's get to the bottom (?) of this.

a) It can't be complicated or large or an Ikea flatpack because Jan gave it to him today and he has already put it together? :!:

b) How big is the box? :idea:

c) Did it need tools? :o

c) Guessing again : a bird table? :mrgreen:

Kerren gets the prize !!!

Well, near enough.

It's a plant holder, (bottom section)

Bird bath, (centre section)

Bird feeding station. (third section)

LED rechargable light on top. (what the 'ell is that all about ? How many birds feed at night apart from owls, etc. )

Now, if Kerren PM's me - I'll inform her all about her prize !! :roll:

Well, there's a surprise! I'VE ALREADYBOUGHT ONE FOR MYSELF!!!!!

(And I bought one for a fellow OB for her 'big' birthday this year).

Only trouble is I have slotted it together but have not got round to getting the bits in the right place, the holes to line up, the nuts and bolts into position. So it's still sitting inside, on the table in the Conservatory, where it causes a nuisance (and some interest.....) to the cats.

My prize, JR, could be that you give me a tip about how to finish it off. I get bored with following diagrams and numbers....
