I'm surprised that some of you have time to DIY judging by the number of posts to this group many of you make.

Some of us post while waiting for the glue to dry before we do the next bit.
Anyway, posting here *is* d-i-y. It's research and decision-making which is a big part of d-i-y. If I wanted to spend 8 hours a day plastering I'd be a plasterer, not a d-i-y-er.

Well I installed linux on a laptop, wrote an extension to gridwatch, and replaced a couple of lightbulbs over the holiday.

How many natural philosophers does it take to change a light bulb?

Well I did build an entire house in 2000/2003 and I am still exhausted from that.

Sorry to disappoint you, but being young you haven't earned the right to be grumpy. You'll have to settle for young and petulant.

That is even more humbling. Just wondering if John could've done it quicker ;)

Depends on the size of the house compared to the size of his table saw.
He could probably knock up a chalet bungalow for Barbie & Ken fairly quickly.

Is 61 old or middle aged? I've been practising hard for years and I can't wait to be proper old and grumpy.

I did the top half of the last house...

That was probably about 7 or 8 months work all together.
