I got a chainsaw sharpening kit yesterday and sharpened the chain. It’s easy to do, once I’d been shown how by a kind neighbour.
We walked up to Golden Cap today, it is quite impressive, even on a grey and slightly misty day. Apparently it’s 191 m above sea level.
We visiting Ringstead Bay last weekend, it’s a very pretty part of the world, we also happened to catch a lovely sun set too. Don’t go and visit, as it’s currently quite unspoilt!
We paid to visit to Chesil Beach yesterday, it was a lovely day (when the sun was shining).
I ppopped up to the orchard to have a look to see if I might be able to fix a faulty amplifier. I took my tool in the Land Rover and got this picture:
I want to Dorchester the other day and came back via Gascoyne Lane. We’d also been to the sun flower trail, and I’d been parked in a field…
I have started to take apart the ARB Locking diff now. I’ve just removed the air pressurisation part and the dropped the diff itself out from the bearing carriers. I also got a nice picture looking in from outside at dusk. I got the track rods re-fitted the other evening also, so short of some oil in the diff, the Land Rover is ready to go again.
Ed and I went and explored around Portland a little last night, checked out the Verne Citadel, the Verne High Angle Battery and also the East Weare Rifle Range. It was a good trip, though we didn’t go anywhere that was particularly off the beaten track, still really cool to see.
We went to West Bay the other afternoon, I took a photo, then Google decided it needed jazzing up somewhat, so the wild colours are NOT real, it didn’t look like that at all, though it was nice down there, if a little windy. It’ll probably be one of the last visits where we have the beach almost to ourselves.
Abigail made some plastic creations for school, with some help, she had the ideas and we just helped her make that a reality using hot glue and bits. It was good fun. I’d have liked to have tried floating the boat, but we never did, might have ruined it too had it not floated well. I did balast it a little in an effort to make it float upright rather than on it’s side!
