So what have you done today..?

chilling and nursing a hang over, winter is hard on yer liver.

 

I've just accepted a Job offer which will mean I don't have to work away from home any more! It's seriously needed too as we are expecting our first little un in early January.

Its more money too, which is nice...

 

Started to get the tank sorted:



And the tail unit:

Back at work and trying to recover from yesterday ! Ok, it wasn't as busy as last year so maybe not as much raised as hoped, but it was still a hell of a long day! Only managed one trip round the track, but is was in a 3 month old Audi R8 and the driver sure new it's limits! Fingers crossed I'm wrong on the amounts, got a week or so till we find out.

 

Yorkie that tail unit , you sure it's not for Red Nose day. narrff narrff

 

Bought a 916 really pleased just have to lift it now

 

a bit of company for the 750 ss ie

 

Took swmbo to view a rescue staffy seeking a home. Our dog had to be put down last week after developing cancer.

Outcome - we collect her on 31st Dec

 

looking out the window contemplating digging the car out in the morning, snowing heavily the now.

 

Took all my plastics to get sanded down & re cleared to give it more depth & shine, also putting on new decals throughout!

 

On a smaller level:



The first couple of clear coats, they need rubbing down and then loads more before the stickers are applied.

Once the stickers are on then even more clear until the sticker doesn't feel raised.

Today I enjoyed the delights of traffic jams on the m5,m4 &m3 driving up to sarf londinium to visit my ma. Took her to dr s, shopping , had a good old chat and then I cooked us both a lovely ( if I say so myself) prawn stir fry. Sherry, Stella and coffee along with Devon fudge have also been consumed.

Its nice to spend time with my ma,she is getting on a bit.

 

Into work for 7 this morning to prepare for a meeting with a particularly difficult client tomorrow. finished at 21:15, got home at 22:30.

Now drinking red wine!

 

Survived the meeting with the client.

More importantly, went to my uncles funeral. The service was conducted by a member of the humanist society.

it was the most tasteful, appropriate and moving funeral I have ever been to.

RIP Eric, you fellow grumpy old git!!!!!
