Hi Folks,
 The electrician turns up at the house to do the EICR test and we have a few C2's!! correct within 28 days! so I fit a new consumer unit, find a fault and do some odd simple
fixes to the electrical installation. I get back on the D type transmission briefly, and it is beginning to come together! The 5C collet arrives to complete the next stage of the new shaft, so I might get back on to that next week, but the first priority is to get the new tenant happily seetled in to the house!

Hi Folks,
 A short week due to getting daughters picked up from York, EICR's at the cottage and getting my new (to me) car delivered. It arrived, the cottage passed the EICR and My daughter dissapeared to her boyfriends! In the meantime there was tidying up, and antique repairs, with more to come, maybe next week! I lit the boiler in the workshop for the first time this year, and all worked perfectly! Then it snowed!

Hi Folks,
 I spent most of Monday getting my new car on the road, having parked  the Outlander at Langtoft on Sunday, and got a lift back to Driffield! Tuesday and it was time to install the little fireplace woodburner for Lucy,  the new occupier of my Ratten row house. Quite an involved job to do it properly, but the result was very pleasing, although it was a tight fit! The new motor is lovely apart from the eu de dog which permeates the rear cargo space, but I will attempt to get it in the workshopnext week and give it a clean! The only thing not working seems to be the passenger door mirror which does not fold in or adjust, so I suspect a fuse, more may be revealed later in the week!
