Taking the bike out for a long run tomorrow to the coast, Hornsea, and back alone the coast road to Hull then over the bridge and home ... in the rain probably but who cares .... Make sure Hornsea is alright before we are allowed to return. Be careful locals will be out with the pitch forks again. Quote

Steve_M Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Cleaning the house today. Removing several weeks worth of diy dust and detritus. I’ve had a quick trip to a Screwfix for essential DIY supplies today, and then it’s back to making a new airing cupboard tomorrow. I get to use my new table saw, too. 5 Quote

Stu Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 What an eventful weekend this has turned out to be! Just got home from the in laws to investigate a leak! A joint between copper pipe and lead pipe is leaking and under the floorboards in one of the bedrooms was like a swimming pool! It was the hot side from the boiler so I have isolated it and drained the pipe to stop it leaking leaving them with no hot water till they can get a plumber out 1 1 1 Quote
