Not been near for a month, what with one thing and another, and a wee spot of R&R, so had a splurge today (well someone had to!)

forgot the proper camera (again) so more pics from the Why Aye Phone. Managed to chop the remaining bits n bobs up with the 'chabble saw' and still have all me fingers, did some stuff with one of those things known as a sweeping brush, juggled some ballast, move half a ton here, half a tone there, the old girls seems on a pretty even keel now, and then got the big burny thing going and managed to set nothing on fire, not even myself or the natty beret I was wearing to keep the sun off me knappa
