Message: [QUOTE="Colin, post: 130411, member: 5507"] Hi, Apologies MoonShadows; I wondered where my Blackie had disappeared to because we haven't had rain since I polished the car yesterday and Blackie then gave the car a good soaking; any chance of you adopting Blackie; I'll be happy and willing to sign any paperwork. (y) I wish I was more hardy than I am marlingardener then I could carry on in sub zero working conditions without feeling perished; a few years ago I was out digging in -5C trying to locate our leaking drain only to eventually find the builder who built the two roomed extension onto our bungalow had buried the drain in 19" thick concrete; it took me a week of enduring torture as I attacked the concrete with a big SDS drill in chisel mode; I found the broken clay soil pipe and also thought what top class workmen we have these days when I found one of the broken pipe joints stuffed with supermarket plastic shopping bags. :mad: I've just visited our local car accessory store to buy oil for the new rotavator Bron kindly bought me for Christmas; I'm so sick of waiting for decent weather I plan to try the rotavator out tomorrow before it and I are antiques. The high for tomorrow is forecast 5C so I'll be wearing my normal year round heavy coat and hat. I love the smell of baking almost as much as scoffing what's baked; it sounds like a good plan being near the oven; nice one. :) Kind regards, Colin. [/QUOTE]
