Today I ordered

'Just storing it for a friend'

She knows my friends...and she knows they all come to me for stuff to be made

To be fair, I've got stuff to make with it all...the 50mm flat and 50mm angle is going to be cut up and turned into some 150x50 channel and used to increase head height in the shed by 150mm so I can stand straight in it...the 50x25 box and 50mm tube, 40x40 box and 60mm flat is all for some rock slider style side steps for the land rover...the 50x50 is for a bead roller stand and some parts of an anvil stand I got half way through then changed design a bit...so it won't take long to have it all cut down and used up...but I'm in work all week so it's her that has to take delivery so she will also get a copy of the £370 invoice

But was it all good as it could be or just ugly gash cowboy jobs ?

I don't do "ugly gash".

p.s: Don't anyone start. Behave yourselves. They're @Dapph2's words.

Can you not sit it on a stout board like the dining table or over your bath , then eat off trays whilst watching TV or resort to topping & tailing at the bathroom sink ?

The bath is full of coal already.

Fed up of sewing repairs to my chainsaw protection trousers. The phone pocket and bum had ripped along with a lot of other small rips. The fabric catches on brambles and rips for fun, the fabric is called "BreatheFlex". Never has a chain hit them.

Oregon do a cheap pair for £70, said to last not very long. Pfanner do an expensive pair for £350 that are said to be near indestructable, but I found them for £290. Ordered. May still get an Oregon pair just to see, perhaps use them for wet weather jobs.
Or repair these anyway and use them for those dirty jobs.

We used Oregon, Husqvarna cutting trousers. Lasted a couple of years of daily use, resin off the spruce trees didn’t do them any favours.

The bath is full of coal already.

After a tip off , I was part of a raiding /search party , yes the bath was full of coal stacked a couple of feet up the wall , so were two big wheelie bins out in the yard and a 3 foot wider by 4 foot high 8 foot long wall stacked by the joint garden wall greeted us as well of 14 buckets of one pound coins plus another dozen or so buckets of assorted smaller coins .

I always thought it was Southerner's jibe towards Northerner's till that night .
