Just to make sure the point/link wasn't missed, it was @exxos's chair that caught fire. Moss is just for celebration.

Yeah, I got it :)

I missed that particular episode of 'exxos breaks stuff and sets it on fire' because I was away, then due to family stuff I was a bit out of kilter for a few weeks!

It was a good episode. Glad to help you get caught up. :lol:

As you can see, your chair repair will doubtless fail to live up to the standards already set in this forum. :lol: :twisted: :lol:

Yep, it's a pretty high bar that's been set, I'm not sure I'd be able to surpass that...

It looks doable then. As long as you don't set fire to it like @exxos then that's a step in the right direction :lol: :hide:
