    Thank you. Yes I like it. Harder than I thought to find a pretty one. You could all choose one! You're doing sensible things like watching the news and I'm finding masks on the internet! Had a quick peak tho Theresa getting in a pickle again. I'm out of the loop with the joke as I'dont watch the brittas empire.. 6 music is good as is Jango x

  • Really good effort on the photo front Lone, I may need someone to explain it to me. I love your obvious love for the tools as objects, you've done a fantastic job of making them beautiful and respect worthy again.

    Wonder if you've heard of 'upcycling', I stumbled on it when I first finished some chairs and it seems to be the current fashionable term for what you've done with that table. So many people are doing bodge jobs though, only seen bits of  'money for nothing' but most of the upholstery standars are woeful. It's like uTube where anyone can post a video of anything and if you don't have descriminating faculties you won't weed out the blind leading the blind.

    Well done with the parking fine Misfit, though my phone won't currently show me your post, I read it in the email notification. You did great in looking out for yourself. That is another reason I find it easier to navigate here on a PC, I've posted and read notifications of posts via email but when I look on my quite new and clever Android phone, random things are invisible. That doesn't seem to happen with the 'proper' web site.

    Hope everyone is optimistic about getting to the end of the week and strength to you all. ()x

  • oh yeah that is a small table I made using two car front suspension arms and an old piece of tropical hardwood,an old weir board Lol.

    a very small selection of tools I loving rescue and restore,bagpus would be proud of me.
