Evening.
The weather brightened up this afternoon. Sunshine , blue sky and a few clouds, the wind was still a bit chilly.
This morning I made a tool to try to remove my seized crank. I bought a brick bolster yesterday and today I ground it down so that the blade was angled to form a wedge, I then cut a slot in it to clear the BB axle. I tried the tool on the drive side crank and after a few hits the crank came off. The non drive side is being a bit more temperamental, I need to open the slot some more.

You gave it a good go. Can't fault your lot for that.

Other than a little bit of quiche, all the leftovers are gone.

Grandchildren were at their mums last night, their first sleep over with her for two years, i think shes proved herself by now. So, while I had a night alone, inevitably I woke at 3am, 4am still awake, got up, took dog for a walk and picked 3 carrier bags of litter.
Thats something I used to do every work day (well a bagfull back then) but now retired and with the kids, I can't get out on my own anymore...so I've effectively stopped. Nice to do it again.
Back to sleep at 5am...awoke at 9.30, up at 10.
