    I do like getting the all clear from the doctor further to a cancer scare.  Still got lots of problems in my life but at least now I've (hopefully) got a lot of time to deal with them.

  • I do like finally finishing a model kit I first started 5 and a half years ago.  It's a very special model that i was supposed to finish by the time the aircraft took her final flights across the UK

Stick some knobblies on it, set the launch control... Owner would be off in a jiffy!!

(Off the road that is!) 

Ford Fair tickets are now on sale. We just need the club password to order.

 

And my leave for that period has been approved so will be attending again this year for sure [emoji4]

Soo I'm taking a trip up to South Ayrshire on Friday to go pick up some printing kit...

There's 5 printers, a vinyl cutter and a few heat presses - all at an absolute bargain price!  Might split it down and sell some of the stuff.  He's also chucking in all of his leftover blanks for printing - even bigger bonus!!

Vinyl cutter eh? [emoji848]
Handy for lettering vehicles and such. [emoji4]

It's fine...I'm taking the missus :biggrin:

The dog is far too soft to be of any use :smile:

(She's also eating ice in the picture...)

That is a truly lovely looking dog.
Let me have her for 3 months and I'll have her fighting fit [emoji16]

Cuddles with my two dogs

She is a lovely pup - 10 months old, currently sparked out on her sofa (well, she's claimed the entire living room :biggrin:).  We get a lot of compliments about her looks - my favourite is "Wow!!  You have a wolf!!" (Google Timber Wolf and you'll see why lol).

My missus says if we were closer to you, she'd jump at the chance!!  Freya has the best bits of both (Husky/German Shepard) - although she can be a bit stubborn at times :laugh: - very keen nose as well!!

I like how I found a tip online to fix the scroll wheel on my mouse which involved nothing more than a T6 Torx screwdriver, WD40 and a cotton bud :biggrin:. Saved me splashing out on a nice new RGB version of the same mouse :sad:.

I really like how things have progressed in the DIY department of the house since i took a few days off work from last Thursday to next Wednesday, 

I'e been working 6 days week since Christmas and had a load of bits purchased to be installed, 

I've also finished updating the home improvement progress thread if anyone's interested in viewing 😅

 

Gotta hand it to you Lenny, you don't shy away from DIY :biggrin::thumbsup:

There must be a kind of bloke that doesn't shy away from DIY. My dad gets out of it whenever he can. On the other hand, i'm always doing something when I return to my folks... the last time I had my hands in the failed macerator replacing the capacitor (this is not a nice job... 8 years of, well, crap! have gone through this machine).

£6 component, and 4+ hours of work, because, well, you may aswell clean and service the whole unit whilst it's out!

Soo...umm...I'm starting to believe I'm really an adult...

Not only am I moaning about the quality of dishwasher tablets and checking my credit score (considerably better than I thought it would be lol) but I'm just starting the mortgage application process with Clare.  Still need to knock the owner/landlord down a couple of grand...cheeky sod asked to buy our caravan and then adds £2500 onto his asking price!!  It's fine - he's near enough family - we'll beat him down :laugh::laugh:

He's debated selling for a while - but he's still emotionally attached to the house...he grew up here with his grandparents, and really struggled after they died.  At long last he's managed to let go - but he'll only sell to us, which makes the whole haggling thing all the more amusing.  I'll get Clare to give him a ring tomorrow and call him a knob lol

(To be fair, we are being a bit cheeky with our initial offer  :whistling1:)

Sooo yeah...growing up...being an adult.  Next step pipe & slippers, moaning about the youth of today, comparing things to "back in my day" etc etc

 

Also...puppy...she always brings a smile to my face!!
