Great news SG! That Kraken shower curtain is crackin. 

[Dandontdare]

Good news, good curtain!

[Theblazeuk]

Where can you get that curtain? Is it here in the smoke somewhere or an online thing?

[staticgirl]

It has sold out in that website now (grrr) but I have found it on amazon uk by searching for 'kraken shower curtain' and scrolling through the results. It's a few quid more though.

[Theblazeuk]

Hmm pretty good stuff even in alternative designs... wonder if the wife will enjoy the artwork or hate the surprise cephalopod.... cheers!

Great news, staticgirl.  Sounds like a top gaff.  I think I'll have a hunt for that shower curtain too; I'm moving onto my houseboat* soon and I think it fits the look perfectly.

Will it be a stationary houseboat, or will you be travelling, like the boards very own Dick Warner?  Ill have to say it sounds class!

Great news, JBC!

I'm going to sign the contract on a new rented flat on Monday. It is more expensive (all flats are more expensive than mine - I was on borrowed time) but I'll save a little money on transport to make it less painful and it's next to a nature reserve. I have been looking for somewhere to live for three months since the landlord decided to chuck me out. Landlords are not happy I'm a bit late but frakk them. Nearly there! Gonna buy a RUG.

Congratulations, staticgirl - I detest having to hunt for new flats.  Fortunately it looks like I'm in the current place for the foreseeable future.  Liking the kraken shower curtain - my much-loved world map shower curtain has a few tears on it, so may have to bear that kind of curtain in mind soon.

Thanks! Mainly static (with the houseboat community in Hazelhatch in Celbridge) but will definitely be going for a mooch around now and again.
And thanks to you Sharky too!

Sounds great, and not too far from the city centre either.
Nice one!

Great news JBC, Celbridge is a good spot - worked in Castletown House for a fair while, a terrific resource to have in your backyard (and a short paddle for you!).

[JayzusB.Christ]

Thanks, guys. Castletown house is great, yeah - fairly familiar with the place having lived in Leixlip for years. I used to bring my old boat (Lidl, inflatable, battery motor) down the Liffey through its grounds.
I love Hazelhatch too, it's got one of my favourite pubs there and a lovely view. Kind of glad the whole renting land thing didn't work out, this is way more fun.

[staticgirl]

That sounds great, I'm really pleased for you. And a kraken curtain would be perfect!

[JayzusB.Christ]

Yep, I'm totally ripping you off there
