Hi Old Dog I'm big in to motorbikes and working on them always takes me to a calm , focused place. I rebuilt and sprayed my dad golf buggy and had a great time
I put it off too long really, the back braking was grinding a bit ... yikes, not good. But when I got down to it, I'm pleased with last night's results.
I always used to do my own car repairs back in the day. It gives you satisfaction that you can do stuff like that, but there's always something that's rusted solid and won't budge which can be ... let's say quite frustrating. Take 10 and come back to it.
Everyone comes off V, though it's been about 20 years for me since the last one: and it's always vehicle drivers. I say vehicle because a bus once pulled out right in front of me. You can't go round a bus, so I went straight into the middle of it.
Defo plenty of points for lawn mower repairs and tap washers.

I can do a lot of stuff, h always stated I stuffed it up, but in my head I get points for doing.
My most famous thing include castrations of a few specis, freeze branding and some specialised car stuff.
Must admit h had nothing to say, when I broke the electric window on his car, left it in pieces because I knew how to take apart, but fir the life of me could not fix. He did however demand payment for the worn out motor and bent bits. Pfffft h, not likely.

Hi OD, just catching up on your sitch. Good to hear you've been repairing things. I think doing things with your hands like that is quite therapeutic.
Just reading your sitch recently, it sounds as though things have settled down to a 'new normal' for you guys. For a while, there were some regular 'tense exchanges' with your W, but things sound a bit calmer for you right now...A little more detached maybe...?
Hope you're still enjoying your dancing. Last night I was glad to be a woman and not a guy - there's a lot more pressure on the guys to learn and lead in Ceroc!

Thanks for checking up on me Toots. It's nice to know people care.
My situation is strange. It's certainly better that I don't see WW any more. But I'm not sleeping well. I was awake at 5am again this morning with some of the things she has said to me swirling around my brain and also thoughts of her with him. Urgh! You just can't help it: even when tring to practise mindfulness. All of which makes me inwardly teeth and silently curse her.
I am enjoying dancing though. I can get the moves pretty quickly altough I do have to think about what I'm doing still and I can't remember what we did last week.
I'm going to pick up my new car after work today and stay with an old friend. So that'll be nice.
