Took Frankie out to get some DERV... bought her home here... tomorrow I am giving her a darn good clean... she's on 180 hours now and getting a little dusty inside  :o:-[

Perhaps i should move to Over  ;)

Apologies Rob and Bill, no pics. It was the usual gathering really. If I was registered I'd have had a go at a tidy Disco 300tdi ES but there we are. My mate got a 5m spring tine for under £200 after a 4m Combinator made a ridiculous £1350.

He had his eye on a superb F plate JCB 525-58 FS and a tidy  L plate 527-67 but got carried away and left with an R reg 8560 :o To be fair though it looks to be a good buy so far, only just in 5 figures. Shod with big tyres, 4 spools and looks like it belong to a utility company for hedgetrimming.

Well I am night shift again today not much happening at the moment but later on I have 20 procedures to check to make sure all the changes we wanted made have been done. There is a team of leak tester working tonight as well so I will have Isolations and permits to sort out for them later and apart from that hovering around FTF.  ::) ::)

Well I've been out ALL DAY on Frankie... wicked fun  ;D

Done three loads of Horse Poo.... loaded myself and then tipped in a 12 mile round trip... I reckon I've done a good 40 miles today... radio on... heater on... in my little tractor... Ooooo life can't get better than that...

Plus... the sun shines out of my backside at the local allotment society  ;D

I borrowed my mates 5 tonne trailer as the horse poo pile was across a chaps pristine lawn... my Bailey would have made a mess loaded I think... No pics as I forgot to take my camera  :-[

Another two loads tomorrow if it doesn't rain tonight too hard and make the grass too wet  ;D

Today I re-flued the Rayburn, cleaned it out and lit it for the first time this season...

Nearly keeled over when I went to buy the bits this morning.

2 pipe clamps, tub of fire cement and 2 x 5" 45 degree enamelled flue bends..... 160 quid  :o :o :o :o

The 45's were 60 quid each!!! :o :o

Also had a good old burn of all the crap I've accumulated recently, packing from the kitchen etc. The whole house now smells of chipboard smoke from the worktop offcuts..... yuk
