Hi Me..... I must try and re start doing these updates daily once more !

 

 

 

 

Right from today, I am gonna try and do these updates daily once more.

The time they take varies from 10 mins to 1 hour, depending on content.

Fingers crossed, they will act as a starting point for marking my day back out into slots, to give me the kick up the backside I need.

Not much has been happening, since the last update.

But Lynne n me have been talking a bit more, and slowly being talked about and small plans of action, if Lynne can find the time. 

Today was a total shocker, I had been up since 6am, but around 1.30pm I woke up to find myself on the floor, soaking wet and sharp pains in my chest.

I really thought that this was it, my only regret was I felt so alone!.

In the end I phoned Lynne's School up and got her to come home and help me out.

Something for me that is very private matter, and we refuse to ask for help, but then again we would have to pay for it and they won't come if I need them !

So a total waste of time.

Lynne got my portable record player, I brought back in 2017, to use on the disco in the afternoons, and we settled down to a Status Quo Album on low.

Meanwhile Lynne n me got to talking about the transit.

I have about 2 weeks left to get the work done and get it re MOT'd.

If I cannot do this then I will be forced to scrap it, a huge shame after spending over 2k on the engine and a few other bits (not including the conversion!)

If we manage that, Then I want to be on the road by end of March at latest!! finished or not.

I think we may have found a garage that will do the welding and a few other bits if they are needed to be done to pass the MOT (from last years advisory sheet).

Unfortunately the battery has gone flat, Matt did say something about the battery draining ???

But as it does it on the new and old battery, not sure were to look.

Found me booster start pack yesterday and left it on charge overnight.

I was planning to go and try  start it today and head towards Bourne to put some charge in battery and to drop in to the garage.

But with what happened earlier, that was a no no, plus my eyesight wasn't to good afterwards.
So will try again tomorrow!.

It has taken me all day to process 6 items SOLD on eBay :( :( 
and I am not happy about that, but at this stage there is nothing I can do to speed things up, until my hands stop shaking again.... 

Depending on weather on Sunday afternoon, we will go and replace the rear indicators on Vincent and give it a good check over and once the transit mot is sorted, we will get Vincent done and cleaned up.

I need to sort out a few bits that will be going with Vincent and then put it up for sale, so if you are interest keep an eye on Vincent's Album on here!.

At the same time we will try and clear out Vincent's temporary home and get him put away out of the weather.
