Almost Done...
The Man-Cave is now fully wallpapered.
Despite the arguements it has caused at home I think it’ll be pretty epic.
See the problem that I have with a project when compared to certainly one of my parents who is helping me is that when I do something I like a plan and I HATE IT when I am concentrating on something/have a plan and then for what seem like horribly arbitrary reasons, something else becomes that person’s MUST DO priority.
I’ll give you an example:
Previous Night:
Me: OK so the wallpapering is done so tomorrow, becasue I’ve not got a lot of time, I would like to erect and test the table/stand and the projector so I know what size screen I need to order becasue there’s going to be a 6-10 day delay getting it here
Project Partner: OK
Next Day:
Project Partner: OMG there’s a 2cm gap in the panelling where no-one will see it, quick run to the garage to see if we’ve got a bit of wood so we can spend the next 3 hours you DON’T have filling it in (not a direct translation)
Me: Fume
That said all will be forgiven if I can do the next Dojo from a very comfy chair whiel watching the action on the wall :)

Sometimes, I swear PH is playing a very elaborate joke on me and that you and him are the exact same person.

I'm pretty sure PH likes spreadsheets more than me but it's close.
But for the laugh I offer you these 2 pictures of the now completed Stand and Chair...

"Though he smiles pleasantly, Executive Panda would like for you to note that he doesn't even have a desk - why should you receive a rise in salary?"
Sweet chair! Now I don't have to tilt thinking about you playing poker on that horrid wooden thing.
