Well here we go agan Ireland getting locked down after Christmas day not looking good now . 

before every main holiday there is a lockdown.  There is a pattern it seems.. It needs to be done I guess to keep the vulnerable safe...but I petty for the suffering businesses ..pubs restaurants etc . Most are family run and will never again open.. Lots have lost their jobs fir good. There is a recession coming ..between Covid and Brexit. it's weird times we are currently in.

 bit of wood work today, wifes been looking for a oak table lamp, a very basic modern look square pole,4 leg arrow like look ,  to sit in the corner on the new table, shes not been able to find one ,so i took the challenge , ordered some oak before xmas, 20mm x50mm planed, and a single 10mm x 40mm ,today i have bonded the 3 bits into an upright, cut the 4 legs ,and drilled and test fitted them with dowels ,just waiting on a long drill bit so i can drill the core out bigger,and one of the legs before fitting together, this is so you wont see any power cables outside, everything will be in the wood

Theres a contractor down cornwall that runs two of those big silver mc’s  , you only tend to see them being used in the summer mind on silage trailers , guess they are locked away in the dirty months 

that will be good to see sean because you dont see many about [ i think there was 60 made but i could be wrong on that number] so they are probably best keep away from the dirty stuff

New years eve morning i set of about 6-30am as it was -4 and i had 3 horsey meadows to run around cutting the hedges and when frost had gone out i went and did some roadside hedges as not a lot of traffic about, the picture below was new years day on my own field ,it was supposed to be -4 again but it was only -1 at 6-30am anyway i went and had a go and as you can see i was leaving wheel marks and as its a footpath along that hedge i had to stop ,it needs another couple of passes in a few places along that hedge hopefully we will get a few more frosts before the end of February so i can run along it again
