Yes, I am an adult. No, I am not a 5 year old child.

Looks like it was sitting on a Citroën CX looking at that paintwork ?

I saw a red Metro 6R4 being trailered behind a Convoy on the M1, Thursday afternoon. Sadly I was on top of it, and 4 lanes apart, before my passenger (my dad) could react in time to get a pic.

I'm feeling quite good this morning.  It's my wedding anniversary (22 years, and it was a Friday too).  Had two helpful messages on Facebook, then we wnet to Asda to take advantage of the "vulnerable" shopping hour.  Both over 60, struggling with ailments, etc...  Met a friend from work (ah work!  I remember those days...) who was looking for red-top milk.  Asda had no milk on display at all, so I said I'd look elsewhere for some for her, as she doesn't drive.  Success: found red-top in the Co-op for her.  On the way home I met a friend from one of my support groups (all now cancelled) who has been enjoying some books I've been able to share with her, and she's nearly finished the one she has.  I said I'd drop her some more off later.

Doesn't helping people give you a boost!

Another wedding anniversary today. I think the response I got to " how many years? "  was " too long" - with a smile not a grimace (might last for the day as I got rump steak for tonight's meal).

I'm told that we too have managed 22 years of bliss

My 30th on Tuesday. I've got her a card but I've no present.

We are only going out for essentials. 

 I told her I was making her a cake but was informed that we don't have enough eggs. 

May have to make something out of wood in the garage.

I found this in the garden. It's a red cabbage that got ravaged by slugs, and was left to rot. It's starting to grow.  I may need this when the food runs out

I had/have no idea what it actually is but looking at the picture/whats next to It I thought it was something you use to remove your fingerprints LOL

Luckily I managed to capture the cherynobyl esque moment when I removed a valve after forgetting to drain the 1500PSI hydraulic accumulator. It's particularly impressive that 300ml of stinky CHF oil can cover absolutely every surface in a 4m square room.

[catsinthewelder]

Apart from stinking are you alright? ?

[cobblers]

Luckily I was out of the way of the worst of it - I was "just doing a quick job" to try and get some work done before customers stop paying for stuff. Watching the video of how close it was to going in my eyes has woke me up a bit.

Indeed, high pressure squirty oil can do serious mischief.

Where I used to work there were repair holes in the roof above the hydraulic test machines which tested relief valves in a test block at 6000 psi. 

In the past there was a poor regime for checking the thread wear of the test block and nothing above the machine. 

The operators just knew not to lean over the top.
