I hope that it all gets sorted out (maybe by the time you're back from your work trip - wouldn't that be nice! hehe!). <br /><br />Your block turned out fabulously - even with the paper piecing mishaps.

I kind of know what you are going through with the house as we found a crack in our pantry that means our house is sliding sideways and we need to anchor the outside wall with straps under the upstairs floorboards to next door's shared wall. FUN! Oh and we need all our lintels replaced because when they added double glazing, they didn't put enough support in the for the outer walls when they removed the wooden frames. FUN! I am so sorry your house is in bits. It's so stressful. I hope your bunnies feel better soon and stop bickering.Chrissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13254578516714017969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4902503112918417582.post-76855814446272463652013-04-28T08:51:32.990+01:002013-04-28T08:51:32.990+01:00Oh dear sounds like you are having a tough time at...Oh dear sounds like you are having a tough time at the minute.

Of all the times to have to go away, but on the other hand maybe best to get out of town for a few days! Old houses....they require so much upkeep.

I hope there's a fairly simple (and not expensive) solution to be found. Sorry too about Bossy Tiff - I guess Harry had enough of her bossy ways! Can the two of them be separated?
