As part of a bit of an ongoing peace plan covering potential ear ache, carpets, the path, me kecks, and the broken printer, I'm going now.
Ear muffs and dark glass's will be purchased shortly.
This has indeed been a dark day in the life of GROWLER The Great.
Payback will be a future sweetener to look forward to however.
On a plus note, my luvlee SiL is absolutely delighted at my change of heart, and I've told her I'm doing it, but just for her.
Could be on for a snog now!
