It’s turned out to be one of the worst twelve months I’ve witnessed but somehow in amongst all of the destruction from the global pandemic and all of the fallout that have been caused as a result of it I’ve managed to enjoy 6 car shows, win 4 trophies, and get 1 magazine feature published. Let’s all try and focus on battling through until we can enjoy life completely again. PS. Congratulations with the awards. Amazing how fast the year has gone by, Covid has been messing with our lives 7 months already.

	Adding this video here, as dull as it is, it covers detail that a lot of people ask about! It's a video entry for the latest round, albeit virtual, of a Hot Wheels Legends tour which is thankfully judged rather than by people vote so always stand a chance with something weird and kooky. If nothing else it forced me into getting around to putting some videos and photos together and adding narration. I think I'll add more details when I'm not limited to duration for contest rules.

	There’s confusion over when show might start in case anyone planned to watch live. It might be 4pm or it might be 5pm, confusion caused by time zone differences and clock change.

	* SPOILER ALERT * I didn’t win but when you see the other nine U.K. cars I can 100% see why and got nice comments and also good that all the other cars apart from one were ones I know and I’ve actually chatted to all of the owners too. Here’s a link to the video, 38 minutes to 41 minutes is my truck...

	I’ve had the last week booked off work for half term, stayed at home due to restrictions in most places and weather restricting most things fun in local area and spoiling things even more was finding out Ethan has to self isolate due to someone from his class testing positive to covid. I’ve managed to tidy out the garage though, no photos of any interest, and I’ve planned to partition it so that I can store a few more bits without fear of stuff falling over my precious one. The main section will be reserved for Acty parking alone with tools, cleaning equipment etc stored in the area nearer to the internal door. The Ignis was overdue some love so I gave it a thorough vacuum and interior polish, the biggest I’ve given it in the almost two years of its life. I had tickets for caffeine and machine’s Halloween night which I had to get refunded due to Ethan’s isolation but I’d planned to wash the exterior and apply some Halloween themed vinyls for that so decided to do that any way just so it was ready to be hit by the winter’s weather. Today I tidied up the various items that have started piling up on the office floor over the last couple of months since I starting going back to work instead of working from home including reorganising my shelves a little... Inherited radio and camera collection - Worthless in monetary value but priceless in childhood memories I also framed one of my copies of my custom car magazine Japan features and found a spot for it above the door frame, not much wall space left anywhere else!

	I’ve had a busy couple of weeks work wise and I’ve not had time to do anything fun but got past that now so playing catch up on hobby time. As mentioned above I’d been planning to put a partition wall in to help isolate my Acty to prevent anything falling on it. First need was to remove the neon tube lights that were across where I wanted to put the partition. I ordered a set of the led bars that were recommended in the garage lighting thread, and was pleasantly surprised on how easy the tubes were to remove and the LED bars were to fit. I’ve since fixed the cables in place but do plan on fitting enclosed junction boxes and trunking.
