How's it going pal?, workwise I'm OK and typically I have more rendering than inside (when will people learn to have it done in milder months??) but better than nothing and hope you are plodding on well too?

take a tip from me and get a portable stove for your outside jobs this time of year, bacon eggs and sausages etc even got a chip pan with beef dripping for chips :) gives you something to do while waiting for top coat to go off lol

I have a petrol stove and a gas (gas can play up when its really cold) nothing better than hot food when your rendering in the wet and cold. took a pan full of curry other week and did some chips for me and the lad just gutted had no beer to wash it down lol
 
Fish n chips on a fri followed by a hit of skim kills me off nowadays

I used to have a george foreman grill in the van for years. sausage, bacon, chops you name it. even did a few brekkies (eggs were tricky) great in the winter, thats probably why I hit 20 stone.. oops. all healthy now .

Don't I know it! Professional Builder Mag did an article on me the other month and asked for some pics for the feature. We'd just completed a nice extension/small house so asked the boss for some photos I know he'd taken. Seemed he only took unflattering pics of my arse. Fooker.
 
Yea bubbles been up there a few times nice place that. Like you say roads are shocking. Millom as far as i travel mate
