one day to yourself in months ! Your going to have to make more time for yourself somehow I think. Just not right.
Yep - pretty easy stuff to get on with is the old southern SO.

Well, it's not too bad Jake - I've had my divorce, kids are all grown up, and RETIREMENT is just around the corner I'm more concerened for you young blokes trying to make a crust, keep the family happy & still find time for the shed, not to mention the odd $ for gear. And I'm not one of these poor sods who hits their use-by date & finds themselves with nothing to do but hit silly little white balls around a paddock. It's only been the last few years that I have been this busy - I made sure I spent enough time in the shed to acquire some skills & equipment over the last 30-odd years, so I hope to be a very happy boy, very soon, with very few needs (even got enough wood stashed to keep me going for quite a while, too!). As long as the economy doesn't go completely belly-up & I can't afford my electricity bill......

Just have to stay fit & well-practised with the hand tools.

Cheers,
