Morning.
As dogs have no knowlage of time or days I’m awake.
Wrap up warm if going out for exercise

Bit o' frost but that's all. I think we have got off very lightly in this latest weather

but I'm sure our turn will come before the winter's done.

He's outside enjoying the peace an' quiet.
Enjoy your weekend folks.

Almost every one has disappeared. I did have one come along to stalk the dog, but he failed to understand that this was the older dog and he sent it packing, very, very swiftly!

A couple have flown over without stopping!

I am sorry the tree went but it has proved to be the wisest move, otherwise it would have meant shooting about 30+ birds.

Morning All

Certainly a brisk one out there today.

All the usual stuff done, going to have a cup of coffee in moment.
I may be putting up some battening and some curtain track later.

There's another minor problem with the "CHATHE" (CHinese-lATHE), it seems it was spray-painted underwater, all the paint is falling off the sheet steel panels.

Now this is not critical to its operation at all, but it is depressing.

Have a nice weekend.

Good Mornings

Quite cool outside but a lovely clear sky. Just read that we're getting gale force winds on Monday.

Have a safe weekend.

Sorry to hear this Dan, at least once you have sorted the issues you will have a good lathe you know inside and out!

The response from the seller is: "We are very sorry for the inconvenience, we have express shipped (FEDEX) 2 new drive belts, and would offer you £40 refund for your troubles."

I think I will cut my losses, take their cash and fix all the issues myself.

For all those who can't be bothered to either say something nice or shut up, remember what you have said when the Black Dog sits at your door ...

But I don't own a dog?

The "Black Dog" of depression?
If it is currently visiting you, please have my every best wishes for a speedy lifting of the gloom.
The little devil visits me all too often, so you have my every sympathy if this is the case.
I hope you feel much better soon. Dan.

I'd be very tempted to 'have a chat' with eBay and with trading Standards. Although you have 'meddled with it too much to be able to claim your money back, I think it is important to put out an alert for the sake of others.
