We have a bonfire pit in the field where we can burn tree trimmings and branches etc... after taken it all apart to check for wildlife I piled it all up again and set it alight.
Great day to do it and now it's all burnt to a cinder ... one less job to do later on...sheep in the next field were a bit miffed . that should be the last fire this year now as the rest can be burnt in the garden fire pit as we go along... having bonfires in winter if they're left are magnets for hibernating hedgehogs so no more until spring
Live each day as your last as one day you'll be right !!

Chasing customers for HSE enforceable checks and not making much headway. Frustrating.

I'll post some pics up when I get it.

It's not a sportsbike. My boy has been asking me if we can go go out together so I needed to get something sensible. Will be good to go out for a ride together even if only a quick blast to someone in the Peaks for cake.

Freezing my nuts off again, I don't learn.

It was really nice at the house, but half way down the hill I hit a big bank of fog. It's amazing how quickly the temperature drops.
