Damp foggy morning here in the Cotswolds... already fed up of winter.

Trip to Monmouth later for lunch, but im designated driver (Booo) so I would rather be back sooner than later.

Now to wash the cars that will be filthy again half an hour later.

Too bloody early for Christmas lights, Andy. **** that **** until mid-Dec, I reckon. ;-)

Which means that instead I get to continue with the fitting of a new extractor fan. A bit of remedial decorating to do and cutting down the ridiculously industrial-grade ducting that vents outside and it’ll be done. Possibly.

Good morning everyone, Overcast in Manchester as I trundle at 100mph through the suburbs to Stockport backwards. It's OK I'm on the 10:27 to Bournemouth change at Reading for Guildford

Well we have submitted our offer for our French home and workshop.
Feeling confident as we've not been ruthless.
Keeping everything crossed as the workshop is 450 meter square total with an upstairs.
That will enable me to do some Renault 4'S up which is something I fancy doing.
Watch this space.

Good luck Phil.

I had a number of French business plans when I was with the french bird... will let you know the ideas when we next meet up.

Morning all and a long day ahead with a drive up to Zeebrugge for some work.
Been a few weeks so not excited at the moment.
Have a good week all.

Morning.
I think I might actually be feeling human again.....

Let's hope Human doesn't mind.

Morning, all. Off to Elite tyres for a set of PS4Ss, some fancy balancing and four-wheel alignment. I shall get home at lunchtime poorer but with a better sense of determining for myself which direction my car points. Which will be nice.

Other than that it's a day of cracking on working from home and trying to catch up after being away (albeit for work) last week. A busy week lies ahead.

Have a good Monday, everyone.

PS - I really hate fitting kitchen extractor fans.

Morning all. Great start to the day, a mate of mine and his wife are having a baby, not normally something that I would post, but they lost their last little one (a boy) due to a hereditary gene condition which gave their baby a 50/50 chance of contracting severe haemophilia if it was a boy. The worst part was that the baby died at week 24 or 25.

They're having a little boy again, but he is haemophilia free. So happy for them as losing their last one was so devastating. Made worse that he was due at a similar time as Joseph was.

A great start to the week with some happy news for a change.
