Just got home from sorting out stables and stink of horse wee.

2 inches of snow here and still snowing so no wOrk for me tomorrow.

Bought some new pole hooks for a fiver off of eBay. They are nothing more than tubular steel hooks but they fasten tight and are perfect. So will be fitting them tomorrow.

Also bought some wire tidy stuff so will do that tomorrow.

And.... Went to see a sheet metal fabricator to see how much to checker plate the sides, wheel arches, bulkhead and floor of my combo as I have always fancied doing it and was pleasantly surprised at the price £230.

That's next weeks goal.
