Miserable week end

This weekend has been as miserable as you could get with a cold and Saturday it rained first thing so had to get the water proofs on to take the dogs out .
Toffee and Blue just thought I was mad out walking in the rain with a cold but I thought that the fresh air would do us good.
By the time we came back to the car Blue who is a job to get back in, jumped straight in the cage in the back of the truck he usually plays me up and refuses to get in until I put his lead on.
Toffee on the other hand is in the back straight away.

The wind turbines were all going well generating plenty of power for the grid, and no one else was about oh how a bit of water makes a difference.
While I was out a friend dropped off 6 Money maker tomato plants.

In the afternoon I racked off the dandelion wine into clean demi johns it has started to clear already.
Then put my feet up and watched the F1 Practise.

The weather was fine first thing so after a cup of tea went to the car boot in the village.
Bought a book the Gardening from which ? guide to gardening without chemicals for 50pence cheaper than a magazine.

I bought 2 steel draw cabinets to put some tools in hopefully to give me more space in the garage for £2 .
Took the dogs down the drain for a walk 6 swans on the drain and 2 crested grebe diving completely under the dogs take no notice of the swans they must give off a signal don't push your luck with me pal.

In the afternoon I watched the F1 race and took it easy ready for going back to work.

I still have a cold but I have to meet 2 fitters this morning on a colleagues job in Spalding to install a new substation on its base.
My colleagues is in America on holiday for 3 weeks they go twice a year he loves it I have never wanted to go, now Australia is a different thing.

1 of the fitters is a young female apprentice who has 2 months left before she finishes her apprenticeship and she seems to know her job good for her.
She told me that out of the 4 that started at the same time as she did only 2 are left after 5 years the 2 lads that left went for jobs with more money in the short term they may be right but I hope that in the long term she proves them wrong.
With everything OK on site I left them to it and headed for the office to catch up on some paper work .
well think I will call it night
