That's what I'm doing today Andy as well as drilling drainage holes in a huge glazed earthenware pot to plant up those Allium bulbs I got from the Southport flower show earlier in the year.
I was told you'll need diamond drills to drill through those things, I had a set of arrow head tile drill bits in the garage that went through the glazed pot like butter.


Also been planting out some Autumn veggies for next Spring.


Home alone today too as Missus & daughter have gone down to somewhere near Coventry to a horse show.

I've never really looked into that! It's one of those compact mechanical keyboards that came with the gaming computer, It's only seldom I use it for anything other than Train Sims.
There's no € sign on it either.

That is not on my laptop keyboard too but the € sign is available to assign to a key if I wished to from within the character map as embedded in my windows os - of which I have several options but my favs are Vista & 7. Vista is my preference atm, I update it manually and it runs with a working version of microsoft security essentials which auto updates. They are my favs not because I'm resistant to change but because of the devices that I've previously bought which will not work on anything else from microsoft - printers, scanners, and software that I've paid for etc..

Evening Andy, I am just back from a day out with Ed and the anonymous mechanic. All repairs completed, T4’d and LJW passed the MOT with flying colours

Next month 02 October, LJW will be 21 and the day after, OVP celebrates 21. OVP was built on 03/10/1998. I wonder how MG Rover organised that, a Connoisseur one day and the next day, a Club Classic

The anonymous mechanic had his work cut out today repairing Ed’s tourer. Another member had done botched repairs on Ed’s tourer, so the anonymous mechanic had to put all of mistakes right and took lots of detailed photos, which included a new exhaust and back box. I saw the work the other guy did, sloppy welding and one of Ed’s wheels was not put on properly.

Morning all, It's wet wet wet here. I'm up with the larks because the ninja cats have been running around the house like nutcases for an hour.
