Are you eating through a straw?

Are you eating through a straw?

You’ll have to shout, the wifi isn't too good in the garden shed.

Seriously though, we have always had a very good relationship when it comes to joint and each others cash.

Bit late now as I’ve bought it

As we spend a third day clearing out my Mother-in-law's house before it goes on the market (she passed away just over three weeks ago) I've acquired a magnifying glass, a nice Rabone steel rule, some German made Radio Spares jewellers screwdrivers, a Polaroid camera with film that expired in '07, and a lovely Parkinson No 43 vice - that'll replace the Record bench vice that I have as it doesn't close perfectly straight like this one.

All this on my 49th!

The Polaroid camera kinda works so here's the Tangledfeets!

It's a tough job, clearing a house.

Cheers, but it's not that bad - it wasn't a sudden or unexpected passing. It's just a large house she'd been rattling around in for years!

I've still got boxes of tools from my dad's, he collected tools like me.....

 

[steviec_lj]

Pleasure to meet you and Oliver. How ever did you unload it? :0

All muscle me, errr yeh right

Dragged it to the back and went for it, the Mrs was in a proper grump so it’s a good job I’m away for 5 days now she might just simmer off.

Almost took my shin out swinging it off the tailgate straight on to a waiting wheel board now in situ waiting for me to put some power in to it, although I may have to beef up the 19” rack it’s sat on currently

 

[Kayos]

A wall chaser

...another trip on another ferry.

On the overnight boat from Liverpool to Dublin tonight to collect two 20’ containers from a power station tomorrow morning, then a steady tootle up to Larne, stopping on the way to stock up with a bottle or 3 of Jameson’s as
OH is partial to the Irish stuff .

And having learnt from bitter experience, I’ll park up for a while as soon as I disembark at Cairryn. The last thing I want is to be chased down the A75 by Irish truckers , mad as fish the lot of ‘em...

 

[angellonewolf]

I picked up a scotchbrite wheel for the bench polisher so I can start tidy up my panel hammers and dollies.

Picked up some nice lengths of steel in Dublin that need a new home .

Sadly, the trailer’s full of containers so I had to be creative .

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

Today I acquired a ride on a recovery lorry.
Engine does not want to convert fuel into go go motion.

The orange team of recovery were fantastic from start to finish.

Now I wait.

That’s what timber baskets are for isn’t it? Acquired quite a few useful lengths of steel, timber for casings, and wood for burning.

They think putting alloy wheels on the new unit to save weight will increase their payload I didn’t let out a chuckle in the office when they came up with that, much

I definitely acquired the Sunbeam today, its off and in the workshop. I started it and thats it. Throttle is sticky, carb drips, bars are loose. So needs showing a bit of TLC and a spanner or two.

It looks proper well on the back of the Pickup
