I had the most satisfying and productive weekend for a LONG time!
Started early - even after a late one the night before - and finished organising the barn.
My mate Bill came up, and we managed to juggle the bike from its old home, and up into the barn where ive wanted it for SO long!
it was like this
and now its like this
Had some grub and then headed over to assist Russ with getting the dolly started.

Then yesterday I finally got the cars organised where I wanted them - which leaves the 411 on hard standing so I can work on it
from this during the week
to this
it probably doesnt look like much actually - but a)to have things where I want them is SUCH a relief, and b)you have no idea how much of a nightmare moving that racecar around is!
So it came to the afternoon, and we were sat in the seats in the barn speaking of how good it would be if there was a flat screen that dropped down from the ceiling....
now I didnt have a spare screen, but I did have an amp and cd player doing nothing.
another reschuffle took place to get them into their new homes
and to deal with the issue of "i don't want my decent speakers getting knackered" a more automotive approach was taken
I now have everything where it needs to be, and yesterday it felt like spring was coming. and I have tunes in the barn to drown out my abuse when the bike STILL wont start! ;D
apologies to the length of this thread - but I'm a happy boy!
