We tried something like that for my son when he was little - screamed the place down every single time. Never bothered again.
 
The colditz enclosure is a great success, I installed foam flooring for it too, so she can fall over constantly and only dent her pride. Now I can make a cup of coffee without her crawling to London and back.

Chapter 8 fencing would have been more suitable
She only 6 months, will move onto serious kit at 9-10

Brilliant :D

She's doing well for crawling at 6mo. Mine is 9mo and we need the baby jail + a leesh. Hoping books or something will take her interest soon enough :o

Yes, the TV needs raising, the cover needs centralising and the TV balancing etc etc

And an electricity supply diversion (cheap :D)

That is cheap. We have just paid £60k at work to get one pole moved and new higher amperage supply.

It is. The existing (shared) supply is overhead, onto a pole in our garden, onto our chimney (:eek:) then into the meter and another cable through the roof good to next door.

The works include dropping the pole - taking the supply back a pole, diverting it underground, excavating approx 30m of verge, under our hedge, new meter / box on our property (I need to pay for the connection back to the existing meter) and then carries on to next door. All next doors work is paid for by SP.

As the installation isn't fit for purpose they (SP) pay the vast majority of the cost (they are paying over £10k) and next doors costs are borne by SP we get the benefit of sharing the duct so minimal cost to us.

We have to get the cables moved as they will interfere with an extension we are having done.

Next challenge is dealing with BT who "share" (depending who you speak to) the SP pole and that also feeds us and next door - but that's another day :D
 
There are slotted openings at the top, bottom and face to aid with convention.

However the room (my study) has three internal walls and is generally quite warm. I usually have the window cracked open and / or the radiator turned down or off.
