LIKE IT!!!!!!!Soffit timber will be retained, with a new short length to replace the rotten bit (which has now been removed). Old paint was stripped off yesterday. Fascia timber will be scrapped and not replaced. New length of plastic on order, it will be fastened directly to the rafter ends. If there's no fascia timber there it can't rot in the future -----. 5 litre can of top quality timber preserver has been got from scroofix this morning. Finished job will be good for a century or two
Supported by other like minded peeps. Sadly.Another self absorbed lunatic who thinks the roolz don't apply to them

pigwings will perch on top of the basket and still poop.Eye is annoyed with pigeons sitting in me burd baffs. They poop in the water and make a mess. Eye is going to make a wire cage to go over them so only black burds and smaller can gerrin ferra baff. Initially from wire and bent meself. Spotted a hanging basket yesdi and through that would be ideal. The half football type. Some have biggerer holes between the wires so eye should be able to pick the perfect one. Only problem is eye need to be able to secure it to the top of me burd baff. Any ideas how?

But if you are going to do it, stick a pair posts in the ground each side of the birdbath, stretch a bit of washing line between them and hang the basket (upside down) from the line.Eye is annoyed with pigeons sitting in me burd baffs.

Shake & Bake anyone?A completely different subject. I updated the control systems on a very old Thermatron to give it a new lease of life
I took early retirement earlier this year (a sprightly 57) and to give my week a bit of structure and provide some pocket-money I applied at a couple of local supermarkets (Sainsbury & Tesco).Guid afternoon
Well having been getting Job Seekers Allowance (£84 per week) thought I had better apply for something temporary.
Unfortunately had an interview for Team Member at TESCO Renfrew and even more unfortunate just got a call confirming I was successful.
Start on the 19th July after my holiday.
Late shift working in the receiving warehouse 17:00 to midnight Thurs, Fri & Sat. Non preferred timing for the younger (party animal) applicants I guess.
And its local 12 minute walk although you would have to be brave walking home at midnight in Renfrew !
Wonder if I get a discount on diesel for the landy mmm
) but it is ok with the best bit being that I know I can just jack it in if I were to feel that way inclined and anyway, 2-shifts a week is hardly a problem.
...and in "other news"....
My eldest is here and has very kindly helped me to get started on some strength training.
I told him about my missing "glutes" and quads" and what could we do with the old gym weights I own?
He is a "Gym Person" and has been strength training since he was 14 yrs old, so I was in safe hands.
I surprised myself by managing to ramp up to 3 sets of 5 reps at 60Kg on a deadlift, I know its nothing really, but I was pleased to be able to do it.
But we all like before and after pics to evaluate worth of effort.
