Gold

One thing I’ve found with Brian’s new found DIY interest is that he never throws anything away. These bits of wood may look like tatty or second hand toot, but to Brian they are gold. Today for instance, we made a list of all the little bits we needed to buy from Weldom (diy shop) to help us finish the Magnum. Brian vanished for ten minutes and returned with what looked like a hodgepodge of cut-offs, but after we’d finished chatting about them and then measuring them we found we actually had most of what we had put on our list, and some of it was better suited than what we know we can buy. Okay, some of it needs sanding and filling, but that’s at least good for our green credentials.
