And do you propose to stay or are you waiting for the trellis to dry?
Do you have to paint it then?  rubschin:

That rather depends if LL has chosen wooden or plastic trellis. If it is wooden it will need to be treated with a wood preservative every couple of years and certainly when first erected. If plastic it will crack in the sun, turn a paler colour than the one she thought she had bought (unless white in which case it will go yellow) and it will be all YOUR FAULT!


Wood... but it is bolted onto the wall now...  whistle:

Well I expect your nice Cyprus sunshine and the hot wind born sand will soon bleach it then. Best get something growing up it PDQ in my opinion ~ but then what will grow up a trellis when you have a water shortage? whistle:

So would you be if you had Mr Wench banging on depressed about how he probably won't get a ticket to the FA Cup final.

In my day they used to issue them to genuine supporters (ie season ticket holders) and then to anyone who had a ticket stub to prove they had been at the semi final.

You'd think wouldn't you. There are ambassador members, season ticket holders, away club members, ordinary members. Those alone will, IMHO, be more than the allocation. At the moment we are railing against corporate tickets.  Banghead I will be calling all my contacts when I get home in an attempt to pull a couple in. MILFH and Brother in Law will be fine because they are ambassador and season ticket holders. Mr Wench however, only holds away club membership which despite promises seems to no better than a tesco club card for getting a ticket.

To be fair it isn't really about me. Yes I'd love to go but I'm not going to sulk if I can't. If Mr Wench can't on the other hand.  scared2:
