7 hours cleaning the fleet yesterday in the glorious sun and 5 hours doing the garden today (in between the F1). Love doing it but blowing a bit now and still loads to do:(

The priority of course being my Zed ;)

Have you got a new rear window in your zed now ?

Not yet mate. Booked in to Soft Tops on the morning of Saturday 26th Sep as I'm down that way for a RAF Fire Service Reunion Friday and Saturday then Santa Pod on the Sunday. Took Monday off, going to need it!:whistle:

Liking the look of your place and I know what you mean but stick with it as I miss my garden after moving into a flat in the center of town. Got a 4x4 Mtr roof top terrace but I am not into pot plants.

I agree gardens can be hard work and we're gradually lessening the maintainance required as we are not getting younger and we hope to spend more time in Florida in the future. Having said that, we would not want to be without a garden of some sort. Your garden looks very nice Andy.

Tony.

Well done Andy, wish I could say the same but I've had to leave my garden and the Z for the last week because I promised to plaster and put a new ceiling and floor in our outhouse, my goodness I've been knackered for the last 4 days, SDS drill is about worn out like me, grass is 9ins high and I've given up on the plastering, am now allowed to get someone in just for the plastering only. Never mind it'll keep me from getting another speeding ticket. Looking forward to next Sunday at Tosksey Lock. :hungry:

Glad I'm rubbish at DIY! Good skills on the plastering :thumbsup: not sure I'd be authorised for that:whistle:
Enjoy next weekend, looking forward to the South Downs then Santa Pod the week after. Get some serious miles under my belt.

This where I started this morning, cutting the grass out on the road side across our front and old Ken's next door. Then the other way up to the field gate, I like to keep "my" bit of footpath clear. Then swept the path of grass and grit., and put the Z3 out on the pitch.

After the GP it was the 4's turn. Washed and dried yesterday teatime, followed by a good polish today. Looking good I reckon.

I had helped our Gary polish his van yesterday afternoon in the bright breezy conditions, ideal for polishing I told him, not quite so today, very warm. I remember Mike saying a few weeks ago about polishing a white vehicle on a bright day was a pain, Gary had his sunglasses on.
I found some small bottles of Stella earlier, I think I've earned a couple.

Tony.
