Busy doing nothing
Woke up feeling very anxious today - it was the play off final where my beloved West Ham United were taking on Preston North End for a promotion place to the premiership.
I wasn't able to get a ticket for the game and I was too wound up to go and watch the game at a pub so I ended up in the garage listening to the game on the radio.
We got the result I wanted so when the final whistle went I was running up and down the garden making a lot of noise!
I didn't get a lot done whilst listening to the game - mainly some tidying and sorting but I did manage to make a seat catch post for a Ken Cobbing seat I have got. I got sent some rough drawings for making one by Digger from Goole but I was feeling lazy so I did a bit of bodging! I got a remade seat catch and cut off the upright post as that was in the wrong position. I then got a bit of metal plate and bent it and drilled a hole in it for the seat lock catch. All I need to do is get the two parts welded together and the job will be done!
