  5. Spent the day (yesterday) cleaning out and tidying up the garage. Still at least one more day to get it all done. Where does all the crap come from... :joy:

    Today will be up and down the ladder to empty and then tidy all the shelves... :sob:

  9. Finished the tidy-up. Everything off the shelves and individually cleaned, everything re-arranged / put back. Knackered but pleased with the end result. :D

  11. What I want to know is who the hell came up with the idea of using hair spray to get Grips on?
    Genius, works a treat.

  13. I use furniture polish to aide the moving of a washing machine over a vinyl floor covering, but that’s another story

  16. Living so close to a park/ trees we get a lot of dark mold/slime stuff on the block paving. Not generally a major problem but is incredibly slippy when damp. With the imminent arrival of the Multistrada I decided to jet wash it off and put some new sand down. Then went and picked up a new lock and chain ready. Then messed around with the new sc2 intercom system in my helmet.
