        Oh damn, FC! I'm sorry I missed your big day yesterday, but belated wishes for your birthday. May the year to come be a good one for you! It's not on the way to Sweden, but should you wish to run that beautiful car over to France, you'll be very welcome. (Diesel's still cheaper than petrol, here). :yay::yes::heehee: :imphrt:

          Oops! Happy belated birthday wishes and so sorry I didn't post on the day FC, what with sorting out the garden, potting on plants, planning new borders etc I haven't had much time to view the forum this weekend. Hope you had a great day and have a great gardening year, mate! :)

              Thank you @noisette47 - I reckon I would love it in France, as long as it wasn't in the really hot season (me with my Scottish blood and all....) :heehee:

              Thanks @Nikolaos :) Hope your garden is coming on well? I need to pull my finger out and get started to be honest.

                  I just need to get rid of the plants that aren't wildlife-friendly in my garden (HT roses, Hydrangea macrophyllas) and then I can start planning what to put in the new borders. I don't think getting a 145 square metre allotment last year has helped but it seems I'm a glutton for punishment lately! :heehee: Hopefully this Summer having loads of butterflies, bees, hoverflies etc in the garden will encourage me to actually sit down and just enjoy it, I seem to always be working in it but never leave myself any time to appreciate it! :smile:

                  Enjoy your new motor and thanks so much for helping to maintain this brilliant, friendly and informative forum! :)

                    That's what you have as well Andy - it is fitted with a ZF box in my (not very good) defence :redface:

                        Not a woodworking master...my skills are nothing more than average. There is one more simple project in the offing, as well as a couple of garden related metalwork ones. What will get done all depends on the weather!
