Re: What have you done today thread?
Did I mention my snafu with the I managed to put a jack through the sump ( new drive, old jack[ btw Yorick, I am still waiting for your final offer]). It went for Mot yesterday....failed ( predictably) on the oil leak, and a tyre....so it lives for another year....
Almost disappointed...I would have gone for another x type estate.

Woke up hungover. Ordered in sausage and egg mcmuffins and smoothies. Think I'll go back to bed now!

Unleased the mighty strimmer and lawnmower on the lawns. Felt great cutting the grass in the sunshine even if it was a bit nippy!

Done a shorter 5 mile walk with hound today, 2 miles in morning and then 3 miles in afternoon. Cleaned the church hall. Light dinner with a beer tonight I think. Trying to find a place to get my daughters ASD assessment done as waiting list on NHS is 39 months, so she will have almost finished her degree and be 21 by the time they find out she is autistic and needs specific help in her studies. Just mind boggling the length of wait.

One who forgives an affront fosters friendship, but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend.

Re: What have you done today thread?
For the life of me I couldn't remember where I'd hidden the wife's birthday presents, so started pulling out drawers and looking at the bottom of wardrobes etc. I found a k-tech rear shock for the mt-09, a tutoro and another type of chain oiler. Seeveral pairs of good gloves. Thruxton baseball cap. Booster plug. 2 add on wind deflectors for screens. Oil filters. HT leads. Buell lowering footpegs. Canon EOS dslr. Autoglym fabric roof conditioner...

Bought a giant sarnie at the shop (the kind where they cut a loaf horizontally into two big slices), looked at the snow on the surrounding moutains. Freeway between here & LA is closed for 25 miles because of snow & a bunch of wrecks, then there was a landslip & now part of it is buried under mud.
Can't go anywhere because the roads to the South, West & North are all closed, road to the East is open, but there's bugger all out that way until you get to Vegas.

Just back from playing golf, third outing this year and was pleasantly surprised to shout a +1 72. By the time the season starts I should be playing really well and putting in under par scores.

Re: What have you done today thread?
Watched a bit of Yellowstone
Read some porn
Watched the superpole race
Oiled all the door hinges in the house
Oiled the rower chain
Fitted a new battery in the Harley
Cleaned the pellet smoker, emptied its auger
Had a beer
Cleaned the Weber BBQ, replaced the One-Touch Cleaning System / air inlet blades
Damn, you can get a shit load done when the little lady isn't under your feet

Is Time Team still on? That was Sunday evening telly when I were a lad, my dad insisted. In hindsight it seems a bit daft to be rushing at archeology, it ain't going anywhere!
