It's going to be plant and machinery mainly that is moved, and I'll be all over the place 

Does that mean you have to off-load the plant as well ?

I have no idea, I'd guess it depends on what it is and where

Get to pick up the money pit tomorrow. This is going to be expensive 😩 but 😃hopefully chased away the last of the gremlins. He's done the forks AGAIN. He's found out why it was twisted at the front as if it had a bent fork...it doesnt...He's cleaned and balanced the carbs and put new carb mounts on. Serviced it. So we shall see. It sounds amazing. Wish i could post a video on here 😪

Might just hang out in the house with the misses today....catch up on some domestic duties, like getting my income tax info sent off to the tax lady....oh joy.🙄

chores today, it,s been cold this last 48hrs and not got above -3c all day today. I spent 2 hours outside assembling and then fitting roof bars to the car in preparation for a family trip to the UK to see my parents in feb. Bit of a pain and a financial drain that I really don't need but Mum's 93 this year and Alzhiemer is doing what it does so If I don't go when I have the chance, it may well be the last.

16C and blue skies today.......and it's 6 weeks of being sidelined!

But the clock is ticking and I hope to be back before the end of the month!

Though knowing my luck the weather will be hell on earth by then.

Cloudy, 3c here, all I will be doing today is going out to get some bread.

Tried to start the scoot earlier....... points deducted for a refusal.

I did jury service about 12 years ago, on a murder case, we did 1 week of sitting in the jury selection waiting room, very boring, then 1 week on the trial, but the jury I was on were taken off the case because one of the jury (not me) spoke to one of the accused parents on the train going home...

The accused parent said to the jury person...."your on my sons case ".....jury person just said "Yes".....that was enough to get us all dismissed for the case...
