Bright at the moment but there is evidence of some very gloomy clouds coming this way and 'they' have said that rain will set in for most of the day. 
Well, I have failed miserably to do double nothing. Shifted a load of brick rubble from the back of house to front (ready for a tip run) and tidied up down the side of the garage to give access to stage 2 of the garage roof job. Sun is oot, coffee break had, now go and cut the old roof joists into car boot sized bits.
What a beautiful day out there! Hope you are all well and enjoying the day
Afternoon folks.
Well I have been a dishwasher engineer (trainee) today. I have won some browney points and beer tokens so not all bad.
When the water was on "ration" last year we were unable to use it, then when we had water it kept saying not enough pressure, Washing machine does similar but just restart and away it goes, mostly (I feel a potential similar issue coming). Good chance to become a Washing machine engineer (trainee).
So after a dam good looking at with it in the middle of the kitchen floor and trying not to break anything. It was getting water but to slow to turn the wirly gig thing to tell it, cos some little oles were blocked, in a plastic thing that there was no chance of taking apart, More coffee and looking at it came up with the solution. So how to get the plastic gizzo off? managed that without breaking anything and could not blow through the fill line. So then syringed in some of the acid we use to clean the pool chlorinator, it bubbled well, couple of rinse and repeat could them blow through.
Put it back together, test run on a cleaning cycle to check for leaks, all back in its slot now me drinking a well earned beer.
No more soft dish washing hands for me, will soon be back to the 1s that snag Ms stockings.
May have earned some garage time tomorrow.
Hope everybody had a good start to the weekend.

Evening.
After removing the cycle locks on the bikes I have stripped down the mountain bike & done a quick service.
Changed 1 tube (won’t hold air)
Now all ready for a ride out tommorow with some horse riders who want some help.
Sure it’s been a few years since Iv been out on the bike….need to start doing some miles

Morning all, just lazing around and having a coffee. Enjoy the day!
Mornin folks.
Went to see the dottir in her new p!ace in Woking yesdi, pub lunch. The Sovereigns is recommended, they had the rugby on anorl.
Dottir went a bit mad on toys for the new puppy, most have squeekerz. Nice run both ways, if a bit dull. Tratter performed brilliantly, if a bit drafty.
Pup has taken to chewing leads on things that cant be turned oft - RCD unit perhaps?
Enjoy the day

'Scuse my ignorance, and I have yet to read to the end of the thread, but how much do you get in a net?.... the 32 nets of firewood have been delivered and transported to the wood-store at the back of the garden.
Didn't take long and I escaped the noisy grand-kids.
So we will be OK for the "big-freeze" next week
We allus gives pups an old shoe to chew and a ball thingy made of one old sock inside another then a knot tied in it. Hours of fun and helps to stop em chewing uvver stuff.Mornin folks.

I have developed hurty elbow. Think its tennis elbow. Came on yesterday and got quite bad overnight. Visiting dottir today, 'er indoors had to do the driving. And no, I've not played tennis for 50 years or so. Must be delayed symptoms
Nice bikes (pics)
I had a 400/4 as a first "real" bike loved it
.Shame about the prices, if they took the view more would come if it was affordable they would get so many more
