I had a dream last night that I had to replace my Saab 95 (can't remember why) but before I had chance to find a new car, I was contacted to say I had inherited a Rover 75 from a long lost relative who had died unexpectedly

Managed to wash the car today, that's a recovery milestone achieved as I'd been physically unable to do it since I fell ill a few months ago.  I even had enough energy left to do the traditional jingling up of the car.  Hoping to get out to do my Griswold run later to complete the festive video for this year.

There's not a lot more satisfying than looking at a pile of firewood ready to go

Don't, I feel old this morning. 

We had our work Xmas lunch yesterday and went out in Marlow and every place we went/walked past was a different thing. We were drinking in a spoons that used to be a clothes shop then an in iceland before that. 

The pub I sipped my underage pints in with my friends, the unwritten rule of 'find a corner, shut up, don't fuck about' always loud and clear. That's now some boutique jewelry shop now 😢 I then directed my friend down a lovely little rat run I knew... Which is now closed off at one end 😡 How we laughed (well, us 2 drunk people in the car, my friend drove 😂)

Like this....

The trouble is cutting down dead trees makes this. Then this needs to be cut up for next years burning. A lot of work.

Just popping in momentarily to report that I fixed the van's overheating issue and it didn't cost me any money just a few hours. I'm as surprised as anyone about this.  It was lovely that @Amelia had so recently had everything apart and installed lovely new parts, what a joy to work on since I wasn't fighting rusty parts and misery.

I bought myself a hydraulic log splitter a while ago. One of the best tools I've got, not cheap, but worth it's weight in gold for the effort it saves.

Having said that, your logpile would last me about 4 days, three stoves take some stock...🙄
