    Sat here grounded, wife at work so i am off into the Garage to get my Therapy. Get some tunes on the Music centre er i mean Record player and find some cleaning to do .The positive side to this is that there are always some screw or nut that needs a quick tightning up and all is safe again .

    Not much beats it. I've got a 10x8 shed converted to my workshop, where I like to, what Mrs Ken calls, make sawdust. Despite a predispostion to cutting myself badly I think I've got pretty much every kind of powersaw in there. From a dinky little scroll saw to my Stihl tree slaughterer.

    I know, I have issues...

    Proof of theory.

    Just removed the indicators from the 550 and it made it 10 times easier to tuck the 'Blade away.

    10 x easier = 10 x more chilled + fridge full of beer + BSB for the rest of the day + recording the rugby repeat from saturday + knowing we beat Ireland beforehand + Mrs Ken's gone out = result.

    So i am not alone .Just back in as it was not to minging a quick wipe over with the wonder wipes and once dried i spray on some of that ice polish which leaves none of that white residue.Wiped over the outer gold links on the chain for that extra bling look. Played a bit of 70s punk which stokes me up Had a quick tidy up and thats it for now .Still pissin down so still grounded .Whats that all about keep going to the window to see if its stopped knowing it isn't?

    Thats well cool .have you got the bike lift .I want one but a bit tight for room Having said that i got my wife a new DS3 and its parked outside whilst the bike has the full run of the garage inc fitted units/ Hi- fi /floor is plywood with fitted carpet /tool rack /low level lighting /2 tall double metal tall cupboards for cans of spray and goodies / ground anchor/ Alarm /Ram raid post/. so it gets the love and attention it needs.

    Detailing away the last of the dreaded salt water spray today while playing the 40th anniversary Old Grey Whistle Test album, bought for me by my boss, no less. Shit hot. Managed to make the job last 3 discs.
