Today I was off with the trailer again, this time to collect the timber for the bedside tables / night stands, fortunately due the amount of left over pine, from the bed project, I have only had to buy four 3m lengths of 1" x 8" and two sheets of 1/4" plywood. Everyone has some idea what that will look like so no photo today.
I nearly didn't get to start this project, I was walking across the entrance to the car park, to buy the timber, on the Pedestrian crossing, and some woman in a Toyota Prado, came driving out of the car park, and I sensed she was not going to stop, and started to move out of the way. As she got to the crossing, I belted my fists down on her bonnet (hood), she stopped, otherwise I might have had a minor injury. She apologised, and admitted that she had only been looking one way, and hadn't seen me... must be because I am so slim!! :)
Anyway, at least now I can get underway, quite how long this will take, I have no idea, this week-end is yet another National Holiday, and family are coming.
The first three years of my Blog follow my journey settling in to life following my move to Colombia in 2012. After yet another a break from Blogging, I am back, but with a change of emphasis, due to health problems, I have been spending less and less time in the workshop, so decided I either had to close the Blog, or revert to it's original use...a diary! So thats what I am doing, it feels good to be back.
