    My Morris 1800 - daily driver. Well, once I get a bit of welding done on it and an MOT.

        I shall be driving home at 12, picking up daughter, prescription, shopping then leaving car at garage.
        Tomorrow I shall be taking daughter to piano lesson, then riding and constructing a piggy pagoda in the garden.
        Sunday i shall be doing BUGGER ALL.
        As little as humanly possible.

        I was planning to get out on the bike on Sunday but after last nights run in with the greenfly I'll probably give it a miss.

                Ken: Ray, we only just got off the ******* train! Could we reserve judgement on Bruges until we've seen the ******* place?

                  My solution when I was living elsewhere was to turn it all into lawn. I started off by renting the biggest petrol lawnmower I could, but ended up buying one.

                  It would take the best part of the day to cut, rake, cut again, rake again (repeat and rinse until done). Hard physical work but well enjoyable and I'd start a bonfire in the late afternoon which would last until the early hours. Spuds in the fire, plenty of salady stuff and adequate reserves of beer and wine rounded the day off nicely.

                    Which model?

                    It looks like there's a lot of polishing to be done

                      It's my birthday also!
