morning all,not too parky here today ! and its not raining inside either !! boom!! well into the first job,very quiet as i left only the cat hurtling around like a a4 on drugs.......think hes trying to set the land speed record on climbing the stairs....as i speek some of m,y collegues have arrived and wait for it......yes the radio on full pelt bang,bang,bang.....its not music im sure? or im getting old..... have a good day all.

morning all from a cold and frosty chesterfield,quiet on to sheffield and although cold at least dry,even inside the garage which is allways a good thing ! love chrisf post how true......second born on way back to full steam after a breif bout of chestyness and everyone else is asleep as i left,managed to get the wd just about done,ill try and post a pic if i can figure how to,ive allways wanted to take the zephyr to the ace cafe....must get round to it one day,have a good day all.

Evening all...bit late on parade as well as being awol for quite a while...been sat watching jack building all sorts on mine craft fingers like lightning scarey for a 4yr old....blissfully unaware of the nutters trying to destroy everything in there path my mum said we had Hitler 60 odd years ago now this lot it's a pity we can't just get along...

morning all,been awol for sometime so appoligies,hope Alison is feeling better,and best to jock,im still catching up so itll take me a bit of time,quite cold but bright on the way to work,and quite dark and cold in the workshop as it would seem some of the strip lights have given up and the heating is off,still could be worse....jack is off for a couple of weeks and daisy is now crusing and desperate to follow him everywhere,ive even made a start on the wd again,might get it done in the next few years !! hope everyone has a good day and keep safe,regards
