been a busy morn, ,sorting the last of ebay sales this week,
and what listings are left all finish on Monday.
Nipped over to Anglia Motel near Holbeach to pick up some fresh veg that will last us the next 3 weeks or so.
So as I am in a fowl depressive state,
I head down the workshop as I want to be alone n just sit n chill in piece n quiet,
but things don't always go as we plan....

The Piller Drill is placed were it will sit on the bench, once I have sorted out and moved all the stuff from underneath will bolt it down 🙂 I have drilled thru the bench and fed the wire thru and put the plug back on. Once I have sockets under the bench
