Today I acquired...........

[Arc Tourist]

Nice acquisition !

I had to sell our container shortly after I bought it to store personal items I had shipped here from overseas. The neighbour complained and I had to move everything into an expensive storage facility. Karma has caught up with them, and their home life has become a continuous living nightmare.

Is there no by-law to stop you practising the bagpipes, then?

I am still getting worried.
Mrs TYA has just handed me a parcel.



DHL Next day, Mrs TYA has been away.
Do I need to pack a bag?



Full off Bubble Wrap, she knows me well. But that will not explain the weight.



A Decent Leather Awl.
A good weight and a sharp tip. Odd. I am looking at a back pack.



A Old Fashion Mitre gauge, rose wood handle. Needs a clean and the blade waxed. I had muted I would like one of these. What are they planning?




A Matching set of Mitre/Frame clamps. Again I was enquiring about these. Should I slip out the back Jack?

Plus this.



I don't do any thing wrong, well not that I know off.

I suspect I will find out soon.
Wish me luck.

She is probably going to sell all your stuff to buy an aardvark painting for you to frame.

If she's truly plotting something, she'll be pleasant & make no mention of his package(s).

As mentioned elsewhere, my son in law brought home a scruffy but working concrete mixer for me. Turned into a little project to rescue the drum. I'm quite pleased with myself.

I had to go skip diving twice in a week on one site because the labourers kept:
a. moving every thing around for carpets / flooring to be fitted.
b. clearing the site of the random piles of fittings they them selves had made.

When questioned over the din from radio polski the reply was a look of confusion. Perhaps one for the rant thread...

Should just have slung it in the skip! When they don't want to they pretend not to understand....

I loose quality tools and find absolute garbage gear

I found an 8" Bahco adjustable on site yesterday

Got a mate with a sense of humour...After i asked him for a couple of cardboard boxes to send some stuff to a guy in i got home to find these little items.

First time I've heard that you should see some of the descriptions

Should I slip out the back Jack?

I'd make a new plan, Stan....

As long as the raw materials for a coffin don't turn up, I reckon you're OK for the foreseeable.

Today I acquired, courtesy of @eSCHEn , this - an unexpected and unnecessary 'Thank You' for a bit of old scaffold pipe - I reckon I got the best of it.....



Confirms yet again, if anyone were left in any doubt, what a great place this is!!

An absolute pleasure John. You know my thoughts on bees and their "offerings" so I definitely got the clean end of the stick

I'll be hopefully getting started on the project (and build thread) in the next couple of weeks.
