Ever wondered how in the "Old Days" people rebuild there stone dwellings.....? Well they sat behind their old fashioned benchtop and just mailed general contractors as we do.

And as soon as all financials were arranged the Maxx7 playmo team arrived with their mighty machines and under the close eye of a lot of bystanders your mammoth cave could be renovated.

Thank you!

Some story popped up in my mind, hope I manage to complete shooting pictures before I go on holiday. Besides it's a little hot at the moment in my playmo attic.

Nice one I love the furniture and settup in the first photo and the sabre toothed tiger, looks like we misjudged the Cavemen either that or maybe it's just Klickies in general being more tech savy then we thought  ;) ;D

And now a little story. (Not for the faint hearted  ;))

On a sunny day at a construction site two bricklayers, Logan and Juan, just decided to have their lunch. While drinking coffee and eating their sandwiches the two colleagues, and friends when not at work, where getting a little corny. Silly jokes, full stomach and sunshine will do that and they were enjoying it. (http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt1_zpsaaf7f467.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt1_zpsaaf7f467.jpg.html)


Suddenly, as in a flash, they realized a pretty girl had walked by and they hadn’t whistled to her. How was that possible, such a nice girl with blonde hair and dressed as if she came from the Alps. They just sat there amazed.
(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt2_zps6a477002.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt2_zps6a477002.jpg.html)

However not for long, in the corner of his eye Juan spots another pretty girl. It’s a cheerleader who is on her way to a game.  Juan and Logan cheer out at her shouting:” Would you cheer for us and wave those pompons.“
(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt3_zps966dad12.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt3_zps966dad12.jpg.html)

Of course the girl is a little annoyed and keeps on walking.

Still baffled by those pretty ladies passing there spot, and yet another girl walks by. This time as if a princes going to the ball. “Should we escort you to the ball princes”, Logan shouts cheerfully.
(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt5_zps358ad099.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt5_zps358ad099.jpg.html)

Then  as struck by lightning, from the back they hear Mason, head of the bricklayers, bark: “Guys, that’s enough shouting at those girls passing by, one of them complained to me saying she was very annoyed. Cut it out and go back to work, if you do want to keep working here .” Mason is not the guy to fool around with so Juan and Logan will do as he says, they still want to buy a new boat so they can go fishing at sea.
(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt6_zpsaec1a77b.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt6_zpsaec1a77b.jpg.html)


And as if the devil is in it, a mysterious looking woman is passing by. Logan and Juan are quite, not blind, but decide to take no notice of this woman and make no move or whatsoever.

The sharply dressed woman however waves at Juan and Logan saying: “You’re not flirting with me, how rude. Am I not interesting enough for you.” Of course, now Juan and Logan wave back and say: “Well, we’re just to gentleman to timid for such things. ” And they laugh out loud.
(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt8_zps0cdf5086.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt8_zps0cdf5086.jpg.html)

She walks up to the two tough guys and whispers:  “You two gentleman could escort me to my place, a nice and cozy castle so we can have an excellent dinner.”
(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt9_zps0a721936.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/Flirt/aFlirt9_zps0a721936.jpg.html)

Juan and Logan both agree there is still some lunchtime over and decide to go for another lunch.
‘Will there be enough food for all of us’, Juan jokes,  ‘we’re very hungry construction workers.’ ‘There will be more than enough’ the countess smirks   …especially for me……. finishing the sentence in her mind.

I'm not only wondering what will happen to those guys, I'm also curious to find out where all these girls in costumes are coming from  :lol:  I thought there would turn out to be a costume party going on or something...

Have fun on your holiday, Conniefrere!

I've only just now seen the Ladies Walking By story - and it absolutely honestly made me laugh out loud at the end.  Totally unexpected!  Brilliant work.

The Newbie
Behind her desk Nina is reading her daily mail in the trailer at the quarry. A girl at a quarry, yes, after she graduated in Geology she wanted to combine working with big machines and the study of earth structures. Rock Quarry Inc. gave her this opportunity as long as the daily amount of gravel, rocks etc. would be delivered. At first the men at the quarry where somewhat sceptic about this young women, but she has earned her spurs. Everybody at RQI holds Nina in high esteem. The mail she was reading concerned a resignation and went as follows:

Dear Mr, Mrs,
I read about Rock Quarry Inc. and the machinery they use and I knew I was the man for this company.
I'm a quantum astrophysicist and as such I will per definition be good for your company.
My IQ is about 160 and the machines are just amazing and I will probably operate them in no time.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Nick Oob

After reading this Nina stood up and decided that this guy had to come along and see how things were run here at the quarry. RQI invests in young men who want to learn to operate machinery, and that means extra money for Nina and her team.

It goes without saying that this guy Nick Oob has to be thought a lesson in dignity for one, but besides he has to learn that being smart alone will not help him. Let’s go to the guys and tell them a new guy will need to be worked in.

At the conveyer belt Logan, Hank, Samuel, Max and Luis were gathered for chit chat before they all begin at their work. While Logan oils up the conveyer belt Luis talks out loudly about the big fish he cached that weekend at the lake with his son and nephew. As is often the case in the story the fish was a lot bigger than it was in reality. And just as Max wants to mention his doubts about the size of the fish, Samuel notices Nina.


(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/NEWB/04_zps19e24eea.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/NEWB/04_zps19e24eea.jpg.html)

Look guys, it’s Nina heading over for here. She’s never this early at the site on a Monday morning; I wonder what brings her up here.

(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/NEWB/05_zps18ac3427.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/NEWB/05_zps18ac3427.jpg.html)


“Hi Team”, Nina says as came nearer and reached the conveyer belt. “I just received a mail from a guy who wants to work here. I think we can use some extra hands, but the problem is the guy thinks he’s an expert already. I think he’s a little bit of a brat and we should learn him a lesson in safety, precision, hard work and maybe a little dignity. He needs to be lets say: streetwise. And a little teasing is allowed as far as I’m concerned”

“You’ve heard that guys”, Hank laughed “A little teasing is allowed, ha ha, I would love to learn that guy that working here is not just something you can learn in a day”. “I have a nice idea for this type of guys”, Samuel smirks. “Logan come down here, we need to lay-out a plan for this Nick guy.”

(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/NEWB/07_zps1eb27ad2.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/NEWB/07_zps1eb27ad2.jpg.html)

“So okay, as soon as this Nick shows up, he’ll be heading from the road and will meet Max first, then…..” and the men worked out their nice little scheme.

(http://i1239.photobucket.com/albums/ff509/conniefrere/Construction/NEWB/08_zps294d956c.jpg) (http://s1239.photobucket.com/user/conniefrere/media/Construction/NEWB/08_zps294d956c.jpg.html)

The next day as Max is drilling a big rock in some smaller pieces, he hears a zooming sound in the distance. From the corner of his eye he notices a man between the trees up the road on a …Segway! No doubt about, this has to be Nick Oob.

Looks like the men havea really sweet tooth love that they've all gone along for the ice creams with their tools and I like the combination of the checked shirt and jeans on one of the guys. Good story so far that kid does sound a bit full of himself and bit of a brat can't believe he put his I.Q. on the mail  I hope the guys teach him a few lessons I look forward to seeing their plan in action  :)
