Today I have admired my perfectly installed oak window sil.

I doubt I will have time to,watch my tv which is installed at a perfect height for the room.

Never mind the state of the windowsill, what I want to know is if its a squashed spider or a surface defect on one of those pieces of flooring.

It's the one sixteen down from the door frame, two towards the window, another three down and then one to the left.

As for the TV height I thought everyone on here knew Beaker was Japanese and so sits on the floor.
Probably a cockroach

You are into abstract then?
You’d have probably got a level finish if you’d used an audible spirit level.

Watched an amazing F1 GP, so relieved that everyone pretty much walked away from the horrific incident on the first lap unscathed.

Cut my son’s grass. Repaired my son’s guttering. Repaired cabinet in grandson number 1’s bedroom. Rehung mirror in son’s bedroom.

Highlight was a M&S chicken and leek pie from their gourmet range….horribly expensive at £5.50 for a single portion but absolutely glorious.

Nice one,
Any photos, how many birds (motorcycles) where there, good time had by all, etc
:motorino:
When I left there were about 25 - 30 birds. Breakfast was good but I left when the idiots on Fireblades with no number plates turned up and just kept reving the bollocks off their bikes. Had me a nice long ride back via the back roads but petrol was £2.06 a litre.
I didn’t take any pictures but there were a couple of “official photographers” there so those pictures will be somewhere.

I was No 42 (I left about 12.30)




Got home just after 5 today.
Did 970 miles round trip.
Kings-Lynn. Round the Norfolk coast. Ashford. Dover Castle. Bogner Regis. Ace Cafe. Salisbury. Stonehenge.
Final stop was at the house where my nan lived for 70+ in Neston, Corsham.
Then homeward bound back up to Widnes.

970 miles
84.19 l fuel
11.52m/l

One thing I spotted at one fill up my E5 was 12p dearer / litre than the E10

Mine is the red one with the box

A leisurely breakfast before heading to the sun lounger by the pool.

Back to the apartment for a tuna salad & a beer on the balcony & now sitting inside with another beer.

Been a good day

At work...
Currently building a 10x8 ft shed.
Done most of the work myself.
Roof needs another set of hands
so my line manager orders the newbie
to drop what he's doing and give me a hand with said roof.
4 x sterling boards to fit, he's on the inside
i'm on the outside, last board to fit.
All going well, he's holding the board steady,
I grab some screws from my
pouch, impact driver in the other hand.
Just as I look up the sterling board slides down the truss and promptly slaps me in the nose.....Bugger! Pissing blood, I whizzed the impact driver down and grabbed my feckin nose then shouted
a few profanities at said numpty.
No heads up, call out....feck all...Tw@t!
This was just after lunch around 2pm.
Told my line manager....That's it! I cant
work with this bell end anymore.
He's inept, dangerous, doesn't listen
and a feckin welder ffs!
After gathering my composure and when
the nose stopped bleeding, I thought....
right you tw@t, you get on the apex and
wack some screws in. Up he goes whilst
I watch from a safe distance...
He put two screws in whilst lying on his side? dropped the impact driver of which
he can't feckin use and slid down the roof
and landed in the garden!?? WTF!

Yesterday I drove home from Woking.

An hour later I drove back again.

Wasn’t expecting that.

Big claim for ruining your beauty.
Could have been a very serious injury.
