I would just like to say

Morning All.
Worktops are here, all done & dusted at 07:19.
They do look nice, even herself seems to like them.
Have a lovely day.

Happy Anniversary!

It was my fathers funeral yesterday. We had a celebration of his life. He was a deeply religious man and there was a very good turn out from family and the church to send him on his way.

Sorry for your loss, my wee gran was very religious & I couldnt believe the turn out people were standing outside the
chapel as it was jam packed, the car park & the streets into the place was blocked up on both sides.

Glad it was a nice send off. R.IP. MOLs Dad.

I wasn't sure if a "lick" was appropriate.
But its a celebration of his live and sounds like a good turn out which shows the many that remembered him as a good person, so he wont be forgotten.

Lifted off a big winch off the ship the crane lift limit said 1.7T, the winch didnt look too heavy but the manitou can 4t but it
wouldnt lift it. wound the wire most of the way up & used the booms to lift it up & it snapped the wire
Fell about 5ft lol then decided to use shackles on to the boom to lift it & it worked a treat. Now I need to get it into
a scrap skip oh what fun

Nothing to see yet, except the raw worktops. I have decided to take 5cm off one side only of the breakfast bar that needs to be 90 and not 95cm. Fitter is hoping to call in tonight to look at the job.

Just had to pay for my car tax.
Hmm! Rather a lot!
when you think the frogs pay NOWT!!
Our Dutch friends have reregistered their van as a camper to cut the tax in half, but they are still paying a ridiculous amount for it.
There are usually people worse off than yourself.
As a van it would be just under €2k per year!
OUCH!
And they generally spend less than a month there all told!
They count the WEIGHT of the vehicel as well as anything else!

Yes a like is very appropriate, thanks. He was 93 and had a good life. We will all remember him as a great engineer who could fix any vehicle or mechanical issue he came across

... I cancelled the Auto-renew on the wife's Mini Cooper All4 with LV because they wanted £429 for next year (a 42% jump).
She went online to SAGA and got the same cover for £316.
I will wait and see what my renewal quote is in July. If they try it on with me too, I will be offski to another provider too.
