That's great Jonsey.

PEG, marmalade is what the little chick said when his momma laid an Orange.

He said, "Oh look, did you see the Orange marmalade?"

No offence to any building insp. out there :-*

You were right the first time, PEG.  Marmalade is like a jelly - like orange usually has a bit of the orange peel in it too.  :)

QuoteIs Amanda Aussie ??
I don't think so mate, as far as I know she's bluegrass through and through, but we would be quite happy to adopt her if you don't need her anymore.  ;)
I thought she would have been on to the marmalade thing but maybe she's not paying attention.
The Mrs. and I are both pretty chuffed now the end is in sight. It's been a bit of a marathon but worth it in the end. One shinny new house and no mortgage. You just gotta be happy with that. :)

Well done Jonsey! I don't know nuttin' about any weird upside down customs involving jam but I do know you've been working on this project awhile and it appears you've finally "got the T-shirt"

Congrats Bro, and here's to many happy years in the place!  :) :) :) :D

I need to sit down by the ol' black stump with Jonesy and have him teach me some Aussie speak.

Hope you are enjoying the new home, Jonesy.

Congratulations Jonesy! So glad to read that it's marmalade moving time at your house too - such an important psychological milestone don't you think?

I must have told the marmalade moving story to 25 people.

Makes perfect sense to me.
