The drill looks like it will fit a few Wolf accessorize.

I think the drill is a Bridges DR2T.

If it's anything like my last fortnights 'fun', I feel very sorry for you.

Banging headache, nasal passages a bit blocked, hot sweats followed by shivers, really achy joints especially knees and hips, very lethargic.

That's the one, day 3 or 4 diarrhoea kicked in, better now, but still totally lost my appetite.

Yep the diarrhoea kicked in, all food now tastes horrible.

You'll start to start feeling better in about a week, it's no fun, no fun at all.

I had that for about 2 weeks - and I’ve still not recovered properly after about 4 weeks in, though I’m prob around 90% recovered but there’s still some “stuff” going on down below.

My appetite is gone, and still feel quite bloated - most things taste/smell a bit “bleachy” if that makes sense? Weird!

When I was ill over X Mas, my teeth tingled and that was what was keeping me awake.

so far it's red about 6" up from ankle and ouzing a bit of fluid and the itching , I'd like to get the belt sander on it !

I was out cutting hedges yesterday and got multiple bites. Im an idiot for wearing shorts. Lump on my shin and ankle swollen where the worst bites were.

Today went to lidl for a pruning saw.

First cuts on 2mm... About as expected, I will need some practise..

Also rope.

And several birch logs from neighbours tree, that Im taking down.

He was OK, had a Honda 90 c200 like mine.

Some tat from Temu. 1st order from them so just a few cheap things to see how it went. The pry bars seem decent enough. The thermometer supposedly goes upto 300°C so should be OK for cooking and tempering silver steel :whistle:

The clamp is cheap and nasty but should be OK for a bit of light picture framing. I finally succumbed to buying one those chamfering things and as expected it doesn't work, surprisingly it's hardened steel, I think the problem is there's no clearance, so a session with a dremel is on the cards

Trebus. He's the forum's spirit animal, isn't he?
