The Saturday before Christmas I developed a cough - nasty hack, turns out I'd managed to acquire Bronchitis - probably from the spider do-do and other nasties in the dust in the loft I was insulating.
Anyway, SWMBO banned me from doing just about anything, especially time in the workshop - been pulling my hair out these last 3 weeks. But today lots better (the doc said 3 weeks, spot on) so out I go - Yes, turning time!
Then I hear it - the gentle scream of a chainsaw...
Around the corner in the local park is a tree surgeon, sorting out a couple of Maples. Well a chat and coffees for the team and I'm now the proud owner of some lumps of Maple trunk - I'm over the moon, eh... someone isn't!
