We had some of Hannah’s friends come and stay with us to see in the new year. I suggested that we try to do a jigsaw puzzle. Not an easy one, oh no, it has large patches of pure white in it. We went for a walk at Virginia Water and saw the water fall there. Also we walked out past Southhill Park in the early hours of New Years day.

I have now finished the bulkhead repairs, so the settings wings and front panel are now off. Front panel will go for galvanising. The radiator is getting a coat of paint. Hannah and I saw these panels of prefabricated concrete with bricks, never seen anything like that before. The totum pole was given to the UK by the first nations from Alberta, it stands at Virginia water.

We have lived here for sometime now, quite literally sometime. We have never been to Virginia Water nor did I know that there are Roman ruins there. I only found out because I was flying around Google Earth looking for somewhere to see the autumn colours.

My PC is now connected to the network via an internet over power adapter. The adapter is a Zyxel as is our router. I get a ping of about 4ms to the router over the power adapter, which I think is pretty impressive. We’re getting about 37Mbps out of our new internet service provider, a small company called Zen who are based in Rochdale. I put a second coat of paint onto the doors and bit and pieces for the land rover last weekend too. I also bought a new air filter for the Volvo the other day, finally got around to fitting it today. It should make a fair difference: [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-lXnI7nKG7QI/V-1h9IrsmmI/AAAAAAAAw5A/0DpcvypoLAMgadIMxB5iCeo6gzJKLysugCCo/s144-o/20160929_185616.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6335827952026304961#6335827953710832226″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”20160929_185616.jpg” image_size=”5312×2988″ ] [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-vHJStPH2Lmc/V-1h9NncvhI/AAAAAAAAw5A/F8-CQFEGX7Ez2-H3DmjATzsooYTezWnigCCo/s144-o/20160929_185548.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6335827952026304961#6335827955035192850″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”20160929_185548.jpg” image_size=”5312×2988″ ] [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-HbiOfzgZu6c/V-1h9CyYIaI/AAAAAAAAw5A/aAffID56tc0yxaSZYeKRDerE34Bkm7GJACCo/s144-o/20160929_185412.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6335827952026304961#6335827952128237986″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”20160929_185412.jpg” image_size=”5312×2988″ ] [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-j1LqKQn_5Qk/V-1h9FCkvAI/AAAAAAAAw5A/alYKJxeIOjw5yOPdQUKT1LCTCL6uuoe6ACCo/s144-o/20160926_200131.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6335827952026304961#6335827952733043714″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”20160926_200131.jpg” image_size=”5312×2988″ ] [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Y7XBWGR7udw/V-1h9HpWcxI/AAAAAAAAw5A/8j8zYAp_cQk9Z5O645FzIXeG9ruPDb2IgCCo/s144-o/20160926_200119.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6335827952026304961#6335827953432556306″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”20160926_200119.jpg” image_size=”5312×2988″ ] […]
I bought some bronze green paint from Paddocks a while ago, it’s real leaded nasty paint, which is a joy to use. The joy part is likely to turn into a head ache later I expect. It does go on very nicely.
