Martin and I went and watched a re-enactment of the English Civil War. It was very good, but the weather was as good as it might have been.

Today I went green laning in Surrey in celebration of my 34th year. I left home at about 9am and arrived back at about 4pm. No idea how many miles I covered.

The two lanes I tried were both not BOATS, so I gave up and carried on to Surrey.

And you thought I was going to follow that with the word ‘vehicle’ didn’t you? Well I put up two kitchen cupboards, which we were kindly donated, in our utility room.

Today Hannah and I spent the day in the garden, we put down stones at the base of the wall. Dug one potato plant up because all the flowers where gone. We had a number of potatoes out of that plant. Put up battens in the utility room for two kitchen cabinets that I will put up as soon as I have the proper fixings.

Hannah spotted it, so thought I’d get a picture. It was about 15mm or so long in the body.
I did my first TIG welding on Saturday, I welded some of the joints the door bottoms that I felt could do with sticking together. I don’t think I did too badly for my first attempt, though it’s not like it was aluminium but it was is pretty thin steel all the same. Honestly? Yes I did melt some big holes..

Finished putting the last coat of white paint onto the fourth wheel. With that done and being aware that the paint tin lid was no longer sealing, I chose to try to use up the last of the paint on the land rover. I now have  white bumper and a variety of other white patches which hopefully will not rust!

So Google assistant made this for me out of all the videos  and pictures I took today.
I went to Salisbury Plain today to do a bit of green laning. No particular reason, except that it is close enough to make the trip in an afternoon. I went around the Bulford range and found some great lanes.
