Another small but error free step forwards. I spent Half an hour cleaning up the stock I dug out yesterday. It's at least 100 years old, I got in in a workshop clear out. Interesting that the 5/16" bar is cast brass. I made the plug for the oil way on the crank pin bearing and of course this included a bit of knurling for David! Now I am chasing my breakfast,

Morning I have just woken up after eight and a half hours solid sleep . I knew it was late as the bedroom was getting lighter. I see a clear cold sky out there this morning, with a cold sunny day forecast.

Nothing much to do today, towels to wash, a bit of cleaning and the packing to do which I never did yesterday. I feel a lot better, not a cough all night though still a bit stuffed up in the head. Perhaps a short walk , and I mean short, in the fresh air later may help. I should think Bob could do with it too as for the last three days he has been preparing and painting both sides of the folding dividing screen between our dining room and lounge. Its a five panelled screen , each having 4 small panes of glass in it. It is the start of a very long much needed decorating job.

Have a good day all

Morning Sue. That's good news about your sleep! Yes it is cold and bright out there. I have just been for a walk and the companion veggies I shall nee when I roast my chicken. It is a bit tricky underfoot but OK if you use your head. Later today we'll see a big rise in temperature....
