When things didn't quite go to plan was "it makes you want to throw the whole house up the chimney" that probably applies to a lot on here now, it does me anyway at the moment.

Same here. :-(
Though I do have a lot of sorting out/decorating/gardening to do, so it's not boredom.
Having said that, it's taking a lot of effort now, to start anything.

I think I'd just like to see somewhere different, and have a pint in some rural beer garden.
