Thanks guys should be working on it tomorrow.

I managed no shed time today as I managed to completely replace the toilet system in the loo(where else would you replace it) it took 2 1/2hours to take the old one out and reinstall the new one, I am now totally knackered the wife did moan that I did too much after the fright I gave her the other day

Well with a near clear weekend in the shed(no great grandchildren) I managed to get most of the money box I am working on done just some coats of varnish before the final glue ups to prevent them sticking together if the varnish seeps into the moving parts.
This is where I am at as of tonight.

Sunday night and i've still got another two days off, the weekend goes on

It's alright for some. I've only managed to get a couple of hours in the shed over the last 3 weeks. :sob:
Either the weathers been awful or "Her in doors" expected to be taken Christmas shopping :rolling:

As a dutiful newlywed to be expected you now have to live up to the pics Chas. In my case I am the only driver.
