DIY with Dad

I think you have to break them in very young. And in this particular case it was working.

Leo was fascinated while I worked on the really dreary task of scraping out deteriorated filling from between our floorboards in preparation for redoing the floors. I must say that my knees did not appreciate the effort and I would very much have appreciated having the supple body of a baby for this task.

Michael says you should have knee-pads - they're cheap and John the Tiler (Mark's tiler) uses them

I do. The problem is the bending and the cartilege damage. Without the pads I would not even have started!

I think Leo will be the perfect little person to work in his holiday's at the hardwear store. He looks like he will have a real nack for it.
