Giuseppe's uncle arrives + Update

Busy, Busy, Busy getting Amsterdam Grass ready as it's D.Day- Giuseppe's uncle arrives 4.30 Schipol.
Got to go and inspect it.
More Soon. need a few joints and a cup of coffee first then the Grass inspection.
Expect me back around 5.30ish but don't hold your breath. A friend of mine did this once and ended up in the morgue.
Over and Out
8.34 How time fly's and how long everything takes to get done.
Well Uncle arrived, very small man (In size) smaller than my mother and she was 4 feet 6 inches. He spoke a little English and managed to say he loved the colour and the different shades used. I must say looking at Amsterdam grass tonight it really looked lovely and this is without any of the grass effect items been added. When finished it will look pretty amazing.
Had another Ikea trip today. I just cant stand the place. I only go alone nowadays as no one will go with me as I get so stressed I start ranting and raving and making a show of anyone with me.
I had to run to Ikea to get a table which you can fit to the wall and which can fold down. Our carpenter man sort of went of strike when at 3pm I asked him to build me a table. He sort of ignored me and asked the others did they want a sandwich. I think he could see i was a bit annoyed as i was banging my head with a stone age man's club.(Plastic) Decor for Amsterdam grass. Anyway it did not work so I dashed of to Ikea for the table.
I did the Ikea trip in less than 2 hours (roundtrip) only got lost twice which is not bad for me. I dropped off the table and our man Ken said he would fit to wall. I arrived back a half hour later and he had fixed the table to the wall. problem was the table was for two high stools (bar stools) but our Ken decided the table was normal table height (even thought the stools were standing next to him). I screamed at him something like "You f...... Retard. Anyway he pissed off upstairs not to be seen again for 30 minutes.
Anyway all's well that ends well.
He moved the table in the end. But after seeing Giuseppe's uncle he need not have bothered. I dought he could climb up on one of the stools and the table would have been the correct height after all.
Lovely day in Amsterdam today, warm and sunny. But I hear rumours the rain again is on the way.
The leaves have started falling from the trees. Bye Bye summer.
Half of Downmarket is starting to look like it's old self again. When it's finished it should look quite well.
