Kind of but not really ,The Daf is all done and on the road, there are some parts that need tidying up but they can be little weekend projects, The little iveco will have to go now which i'm kind of relieved about as a big job had broken out

1 gallon of Vinegar
2 cups of Epsom Salt
1/4 cup of Fairy Liquid
Got the Epsom Salt at a "Pound Stretcher" shop for £1.oo
"Boots" chemists wanted £7.oo for the same amount.
Cheapest price we found for Vinegar was at Aldi, about £0.27 pence.

Mentioned to my niece i was going to spend some time making pictures on my pc and editing a few old pictures and today she did a drive by and dropped off her old Wacom pad, it need a new stylus as it fell apart but they are available so it is very useful, the down side is she has added a few stickers on the back

I've got a HUGE but ancient one up in the attic I think. I'm not sure it would even be usable these days (it would need a PC with a serial port or a USB/serial adaptor and I doubt there are drivers for Windows 10).

I bought a Calcomp 2’x3’ (yes 2ft x 3ft) tablet in the early 90s to draw mapping. Had a mouse with a crosshairs.

I also had a Calcomp, but smaller at A3 size - I got rid when I moved house. Handy for working on photos in P/Shop at the time, but since I don't do much of that now......

Today I received a 72 slot pencil roll (Like a very organised version of a pencil case).
Do I own 72 pencils? Erm, No........ But I do have quite a few different lock picks, And I DID have trouble finding a suitable way of storing them in groups of pick types that was large enough to keep my whole collection accessible in one place.
I think they look quite at home in there. Rolls up into a nice tidy little bundle too.

Managed to find myself a "proper" one.It can be a tripod for now, until I find a proper one.
I'm wondering if I should have gone with something a little smaller.
It's an old Manfrotto with a pan/tilt/roll head. At a more sensible extension it's pretty solid, as you'd expect weighing eight kilos.
Takes some weird old hexagonal QR plate I believe, no idea if they're still available but i know someone with a 3d printer...
