Morning

Another grey day but considerably warmer. Todays job is to tackle wall paper-stripping tn the accessible half of the dining room and for my part I will be washing down and painting the door frame and skirting boards in the same half. That is going to take much of the day. Have a good day all

This morning I cut the recess for the eccentric rod, drilled and tapped for the CS screw and fitted the rod. Then I drilled for the bolts that will hold the two halves of the strap when they have been split. Next job is the split and fitting the strap on the eccentric but that's for tomorrow. Right now I want breakfast.

Afternoon

This morning was rather short, too short to have time to write. I had some French homework ( les devoirs) to do for tomorrow but we had to be in Bradford just after 12. We were meeting members of the u3a History group for a visit to Bolland Hall in Bradford, and a light buffet lunch before hand at a cafe close by. We didn’t know of the halls existence but it proved to be an interesting trip round. It was after 4 when we got back home. I have just had a cuppa and finished my french and thought I would drop a note before I prepare our roast pork evening meal, which will be a little later than usual due to us consuming sandwiches and cake in the cafe. Hope you all had a good day. It was very spring like with us, 12 + degrees blue skies but a strong wind.
