Mainly this week I have....Spent a day and half fitting a new kitchen sink, only to discover the hole for new sink is bigger than what it needs to be, resolved a few leaks with compression joints and PTFE tape.

Finished the border in the front garden with gravel and weed neating.

Starting fitting a new split charge circuit to the LR using a 180amp relay

Painted the A Bar for the LR

Been to a wedding over the weekend.

Back to work tomorrow for a rest :-(

Made a pressure bleeding kit thing out of an old bicycle inner tube, plugged the top with a deodorant can lid, ripped the valve out and stretched it over the reservoir.

And a good day it was too! Going back soon to refresh my memory about the lane we missed. Haven't washed mine yet, but cut the hedge today, so now I'm waiting for the rain!!
