Been a bit distracted ..

December 2013 approached and I had already exceeded the 2012 mileage by some way and was feeling as fit as a butcher's dog. I didn't ride in December at all, except one wet one just after Christmas, although it's not all bad.

What you been doing Fred ? Well, we've sold one house, bought another, installed gas and a new boiler, had three leaking radiators and thrown away a (very expensive) ruined carpet. Replaced three ceilings, bought and applied (at least) twenty gallons of paint. Re-roofed a shed, trimmed some trees and sold the kitchen on E-bay.

(The price did go up a bit and we saved a couple of hundred getting it taken out and removed, so no complaints. Except we don't have a kitchen at the moment)

This week, we have lost two sections of fence and have a temporary lake on the drive, but the equipment to sort this water issue out has just arrived .. new drain shortly.

..oh, and while you are at it, let's create a bit more parking, and de-moss the lawn.

The jobs list grows. We tick items off the list. The list grows again. We are also the proud owners of 163 match pots in 'various' colours that are so similar I cannot tell the difference.

We discuss, we sometimes disagree, but Molly invariably knows best and I think I knew this before I disagreed. 

Watch this space as the re-build continues and, if it can stop raining long enough, we may get some riding in too.
