Gave back the FIL's gazebo today, one less thing taking up space in my shed. The other day a mower went to the future SIL. Now I just need the chairs they are using for the engagement party out and a set of shelves for the wife's gardening gear and the shed will again start to resemble a workspace and not a dumping ground.

Also washed five of my drying towels. I couldn't find the laundry liquid so I used a bit of carwash soap. It will be good to not leave blotchy water marks behind when I wash BT. I've found you only get one or two dryings out of a single towel before it picks up too much mud residue and then leaves marks behind.

We are getting a nature's car wash today :) cars needed it because the birds have been doing carpet bombing runs again down our driveway again :(

Need to figure out some way to set up a hose reel for the water blaster so it's much easier to use it for car washing.

Too many
Cleaned my bench for the first time in probably 2 years, took far longer than it should have. Also added more sound foam around my compressor, not sure how welll it works but it was cheap and hopefully dulls the sound a little from the compressor. Need to get some more though so I can do the underside of the bench too.

Used my Rover walking frame yesterday, and found it only had one speed, regardless of throttle setting.
Pulled the plastic throttle apart, not there ........... must be jammed somewhere in the cable, not there ............. carby linkages, they slide, but not as much as they should, why ?
Must have smashed it against a low bush branch, and bent a linkage just enough to stop it sliding as per the manufacturer intended.
A tweak with the pliers, and a major dilemma averted.
Had to have a cup of coffee and a nanna nap after all that. :)

You switched it off first, yeah?
