Cold and rain never stopped me before, and rain itself won't stop me, but the cold gets into my bones badly these days.
To the point where it hurts a lot.

Thanks for the reply Ray.

Own gifts are the way to go.

And yes, agreed on a good new year.

That would be rather special to experience again.

Have a Blessed New Year Mate...

Donald, I suspect we will chat on FaceTime still before or by new year.

Part one of he non truck related update coming up.

You and I should become pirates together.



Bah Humbug and all that.

I had a lovely Christmas dinner with friends and then planned on keeping myself busy for Boxing Day.

Got this far..... then got a phone call from a friend that she wanted to visit with her two dogs, would that be OK?

Of course it was.

So this is pretty much where it ended on Day one.



Few pics to speak for themselves.

As I started to get my flow.

Had to incorporate the broken off corner.







By now the block was coming to life.

This was the plan.

Getting it into shape would be another job.



Next up a lovely visit and doggy time.

Next morning a lazy start, then down to the garage, which showed 2'C inside.

Cut the basics.



Shaped.



Primary tool.

Remember this stuff can be fragile.





All the outlines done.



Amazingly, this took quite a few hours.

Called it a day early.
