The DIY King (of fools) attacks again! :)
Heya!
Maybe you have noticed that I have been a bit absent lately… no posts, no videos, no pics… Loads of twits and a brand new gateway to all the bits @ urbanvox.net (a provisory one as the real new one will be all flashy when it is eventually done…
) yup… loads of new things going on but not a lot of my presence…
It comes with the new year I guess… all new!
All I can say right now is sorry for the absence! It is all for a good cause!
So… the latest new thing for me are the new adventures of the DIY King (of fools): ME!
If you’ve been following my twits you might have noticed me rambling about builders giving me headaches and decoration and trips to IKEA, and spending money, and a new CWI HUB or even about a MetaNoia Cafe.

ah the trips to IKEA... FUN (not)
Well that’s what’s been keeping me busy and away(ish) from the internet . I never imagined that the details to open the venue of my dreams (just in a smaller scale) would be so complicated. I can’t wait to have it up and running (but you will hear about it when and as it happens).

1 month to do a 2 week job! grrrr!!!
The builders have FINALLY moved out! That means that now I can FINALLY move in and get it ready to start receiving people! Ah… BTW… you are more than invited to come and visit us… we have wireless internet avaliable… and even a couple of computers mounted on the walls…
Which brings me to the DIY K(OF) situation: I am picky… and me being picky I didn’t like much what the builders did with the counter… for a start it was on the wrong place (after I told them exactly where I wanted it and HOW!)!!
So I decided to get back home, pick up my tools and MOVE IT MYSELF!

me me meeeeee!!!
Next step is painting bits that need painting… getting the Image ID elements in and get the furniture/ computers/ studio equipment/ coffee shop stuff and then yayyyy we’re well away!
Too bad I didn’t take any pictures of the “Before”… but the “After” looks A LOT better! hehehe
Even better!!! I didn’t hammer a toe, of shred myself on nails or caused (or participated) on any accident yet!
Me is happy!!! lol!
wow… 2:22am… time to go to bed uh!
I’ll keep u posted!
nite nite!!!!!
zya!
(PS: Monday was OK all things considered!

hoora! well done to you! Place looks lovely! i am kinda glad we do not have a Ikea here in the city of leicester (we have one in leicestershire… somewhere.. but it’s too far away for my little legs to walk.. or catch a bus..)..
I would ofcourse spend far too much! (but at least my house would be trendy huh!)
glad it’s going well, keep it up and we’ll forgive you for lack of presence, I think your doing pretty well with it!

Congrats on doing stuff yourself. I usually have to ask TLP and then wait. And wait … I really must learn how to do some of these jobs myself.
You sir, are one sick puppy. You should be grateful for your IKEA. Not everyone has one, you know……….
