Yes, I saw that a couple of days ago. Johnson only went in as a precaution, if I remember rightly.

After tilling the soil with Ronnie Rotovator it was ploughing trenches with him.
Today's accompaniment, the neighbour practising amplified cello outside with some delay line processor thing giving a choral sound.

might reward myself with a ride later 🙂

My reward was 9.5 miles

I was thinking of the mayor from Jaws!

So was I

Went for a short shopping trip by bike this afternoon and that was enough to convince me that it was too cold & windy for anything else, so I went for a 10km mile walk around the local footpaths instead. A small flask of coffee in the backpack certainly helped.

It was damn cold in that wind, wasn't it? Nutter that I am, I went for a ride anyway.

Needed a hot bath on my return in order to defrost.

Anyways, time to put the modelling away for today. I've been carving the detail on the 4-1 collector for the exhaust system, but I need to coat it in superglue prior to continuing.

Best I do that outside and in good daylight.

I have decided to leave one side of the collector flat, so that I can glue it to the bodywork. It'll give me an extra point of attachment. Otherwise the exhaust is only held on at the manifold and by a bracket just forward of the back box. That might be a bit wibbly wobbly, so I prefer the belt-and-braces approach.

Right, bed for me.

Nunnight one and all xxx

You've caused the snow here as well. Please give a warning next time.



You can't evade your responsibility like that you know.

Now you can't blame me for all of that.

If I'd taken off the snow tyres from my commuter bike, then maybe: that usually causes apocalyptic weather.

Time to go offline and take Middle Son off to north Germany for his job interview.

See you in a day or two...

We're back. It was a very interesting couple of days: northern Germany is very different from the south, not just in the landscapes but also the culture; after all it was a different country until not that long ago.

Middle Son seemed to like the possible job and they seemed to like him, so we'll see how things work out.

Morning.
Grey here. Our kitten has gone out exploring . He'll probably come back in to use his litter tray.
