That lady was a winner on the night.

Swiss Army knife, but I do have a Leatherman Wave along with a bunch of other knives I gathered over time,

It's the shoes! Rian, you need a pair of black dress sandals (and probably a pedicure).

Yes, the safety toe-teckters would make a difference.




Well, after all the training and meetings that have been going on since mid-February, I started working for real again today. Must say, it was good, and what's even better is that the team I am part of really seem supportive, not had much of that the last 5 years.

Just had Martin over to pick up some bits for Ian Brown's build and garage.

He also brought along the new dual filament LED lamps he had bought for the back up lights, we in the UK of course have to use Amber lamps for indicators, and they ideally should be separate from our rear lights.



Testing them, the amber is bright enough.



The eye searingly bright 50 watt white lamps will make great backup lights as both of us reverse into our properties.



Simply put, they fit in the new units I bought.



Biggest problem will be finding some replacement twin filament sockets to take the new LED lamps.






Has anyone else done this switch before?


Looking forward to a bit of truck time this weekend too.
