A rare perfect Saturday afternoon.
Six nations,a beer and a log burner.
Pity Wales are behind.

Nice walk along the Llangollen Canal. Not sure whether it felt safer on foot or on a boat a few years ago. Incredible bit of engineering finished the same year as the battle of Trafalgar.

I spent much of today at an "Artisan bread making" course run by an ex-colleague who also escaped the EA. Di now runs Aston Parish Bakery and is a member of the global "Bread Angels" organisation.

Went to find one of our pigs that had decided not to pig in one of the arks that we bought for her...
She had made a lovely nest, and had about 16 piglets.
I took her some straw and some food.

Went to YAMS
didn't take any photos.
Saw @Nearly @Drillman @Spud and someone I can't remember their forum name...
We've been given a JCB 3CII
Went to try and get it started to drive it back to the yard so we can low loader it home.
Had it cranking but not fast enough...
It hasn't moved for about 3 years.

Conducted a systematic raid on the bakery at dinnertime.
Was good.

There was a proper planned meeting last year but you were, erm, busy.
Yes floor was not level so underlay helped get rid of change in levels a bit. Dining room is extension on the side of the house and was cold before, and it has helped make room a bit warmer imho. Only cost 45 quid for the underlay so was worth it.Underlay under laminate? Everydays a school day.
