What are you all up to today? - part 3

Have a great holiday H&T. Don't think I'm going to get that lazy day after all, OH has gone out to wash and polish my car muttering something along the lines of "are you still on that computer" Guess I'd better shake a leg and do something.

Have a good one H&T ! 

Thanks for the comments folks.  We've had an afternoon at Titisee today.  Very warm while walking around, but just a touch cooler now we have got back to the caravan.  Almost time for tea - or rather, beer!!!

, A bit of ongoing maintenance today ,plus STILL trying to get a 'Stuart Turner' engine  timing correct !! 

Is that one of the original two-stroke ones or the diesels that they produced under licence? I had one of the 10HP twin two strokes. Great engine - good agricultural simplicity if a bit thirsty.

Write your comments here...Hmmm, Yes C.Y It's a two pot ,magneto spark induced via a distributor,with a big flywheel to one end.Got it running today by retiming the TDC on number one ,in conjunction with the timing marks on the flywheel."" HOOORAY !! 

Lifted a " Drascomb Lugger" out today as the center board had jammed down ,after turning turtle las week ,two stroke outboard submerged too !! 

Went for a quiet pint in a 'local',only to be responder in first aid to a very poorly elderly lady,calmed her down ventillated the room ,checked her pulse very clammy and faint,,untill para-medics arrived , ECG showed 160 over 104 ,not good ,but i think she will recover o.k .

Well ,,,you never know how the day is going to pan out ,,!!

Good to hear you enjoyed the concert Tammygirl, enjoy your lazy day.  

Just been food shopping for the holiday, wine too! 

Cake in the oven,  as OH felt left out when I made one for the boys.

Few hours at work, then holiday here we come! 

Have a great time H&T. Sorry missed your request for ideas in Suffolk, if you get the chance though, Lavenham is a must! 

Bit of a disaster today.

Henry, the duck that was born here 2 years ago, has 5 of her 6 ducklings left. They came onto our patio for some food this morning.

Later in the day, we heard a commotion down by the stream. Some idiotic woman had let her dog off its lead and it was in the stream. Ducks went in all directions!

We shouted to her to get her dog on a lead......she ignored us and she walked on, with a mobile phone stuck to her ear.

Anyway, Henry was seen later looking for her offspring - clearly they had gotten split up in the panic. Last time we saw her, she still hadn't found them, but we've not seen her for a few hours now. Fingers crossed they get back together!

Why are some people so ignorant of anything outside of the own little world??

Many thanks to all for the "good holiday " wishes, not sure how much Internet I will have  but will look in when I can.

Caravan now packed, ready for the off in the morning! 

Ian: really hope Henry finds her chicks or they find her. 

IanH, that's awful hope Henry finds her little ones. People on mobile phones do my head in, walking into you out on the street/shops, not looking after their children is the one that really annoys me but when innocent wildlife/animals get hurt that is unforgivable.

Thanks for the comments folks.  We've had an afternoon at Titisee today.  Very warm while walking around, but just a touch cooler now we have got back to the caravan.  Almost time for tea - or rather, beer!!!

Have a great holiday DSB. Hope you are enjoying your new caravan.

Have a wonderful holiday Helen.

Ian: I do hope Henry finds her ducklings. What a stupid woman.
