Popular Post Buddsy 1,658 Posted January 23 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 23 Over the last couple of months Ive been jazzing up my garage. I was so sick working on the Esprit under a dim single bulb I started by painting the ceiling and fitting a couple of LED tube lights. Over the lockdown I managed to squeeze in time to make a new smaller work bench. Ive fitted a sink and air line for my compressor. I bought a couple of new tools boxes for all my tools. Today I hung the couple of prints classic team gave me plus one from Mr Mountain! I have been working on my brakes and its been so much nicer working out there. video-1611426396.mp4 buddsy 2 2 Quote "Belief is the enemy of knowing" - Crrow777 Link to post Share on other sites

Only £20 a month more than BT's best package in my area, yet it beams it from space! If I was on a landline I would get 1.5mbps and have to pay around 30 for the privilege. I have a sim enabled Hauwei router. In this I put a mobile sim costing 35/monthfrom EE that allows up to 1TB of download data and 10 devices before being considered commercial use achieving 90mbps down and 40 up. This is NOT a data sim. You would have to pay more and get a smaller data specific package. EE and 3 are the only companies who currently allow tethering in their small print. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gold FFM C8RKH 6,767 Posted February 28 Gold FFM Report Share Posted February 28 Spent the weekend fixing one of my sewer inspection cavities. New brick work, new covering etc. Then finished one of the wooden borders between stone path and flower bed. Then built a table for the chop saw but wasn't paying attention so managed to chop the end off my chop saw sub fence - doh! Never mind, new one sourced and ordered for the princely sum of £13 including p&p. Just glad it was the sub fence and not my fingers/thumb. Ironic that I was building a portable table for the chop saw to be permanently attached to with a "plumbed-in" dust collection pipe etc. Anyway, a very productive weekend and nice to spend the majority of it outside in just a polo shirt and shorts - Scotland in February.

Superb! Crikey, removed some dead shrubs and replanted under the study window over the weekend. It been nice , but Long trousers long sleeved polo and I was cold. My hands are still frozen. I’m about to light the wood burner again. So much for the south. 1 Quote A Lotus is for driving, pork is for breakfast. Link to post Share on other sites

Superb! It is certainly better when we can get out and about in our gardens during this lockdown. Much more depressing just looking at the cold wet weather.

Bibs 11,682 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 Do we need to start a 'Gardeners World' thread? Mowed the lawn (2nd time this year here too!), sprayed it with iron sulphate to clear out the moss and give the grass some colour and also did the whole roof of the house too (thankfully I'm in a bungalow!) to kill off the winter moss. Cleaned 4 cars and just back from a 45 min bike ride with my daughter, a very busy weekend and really good to spend so much time outside for a change 1 1 Quote 88 Esprit NA, 89 Esprit Turbo SE, Evora, Evora S, Evora IPS, Evora S IPS, Evora S IPS SR, Evora 400, Elise S1, Elise S1 111s, Evora GT410 Sport Evora NA For forum issues, please contact the Moderators.

If you are then do you need to see the effort on my Choisya Bush over the last two weekends? The exposed soil is how far I have cut back. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
