Time for a cold apple juice me thinks.
It's the same here....Lovely day. More of the same until Monday so the forecast says

Don't forget the ice.....

Bright and sunny here but the temp is just scraping into double figures.

Just finished taping up Ging's huge Philippines box, already four layers on the bottom and that's a double layer around the sides. Once its packed four layers of tape over the top and a couple of layers around the sides securing the ends of the tape on the top. Need to be well protected as they're not gentle with the boxes, when they have enough the boxes get stuffed into a container and sent over by sea. They get so battered that when they arrived they resemble a very large paper bag rather than a box!

Fish n chips for tea. Just having a large, very large, glass of wine.

Morning everyone from sunny Saltash.

Going to finish off the mega clean on Banana, then going to get stuck in to my neighbours car. Wash, clay, polish and a good waxing. Should be completely knackered by this evening.
