That took while to finish off

Surprisingly I did not spend the day faffing around with the new bike. I did connect her up to an Optimate battery charger and throw a cover over her, but that was it.

I did however attend to a little job that has been ignored for a couple of years. 

Shortly after moving here TP's chum Charlie asked if I wanted a "parts bin rack." Basically this is a large sheet of metal with regularly spaced, louvered perforations. These louvres allow plastic component bins to be slotted on to it for the storage of whatever you like ... usually small components such as fixings etc.

I accepted the offer and Charlie kindly delivered the rack. It was then shoved in the back of the car port and subsequently blocked in by the Series 2. It has sat there for at least two years, probably longer.

The recent removal of the Land Rover meant that I was finally able to get at it and I spent a merry couple of hours fixing it to the wall in the garage. I had even ordered a set of parts bins, so these were slotted in place. It really does look rather professional. All I need to do now is find something to put in it.

In other news, Jason and the lads turned up this morning to grout the paving slabs and tidy up the site. The new path looks lovely and really smartens up the front of the house. The only downside is that we really need to get the driveway cleaned up ... and that is a hands and knees job!

That can wait until the weather warms.
