Title: Shed cleaning
Post by: JOOLZ on April 03, 2020, 11:26:11 AM

Im cleaning my shed, its been pretty well used over the last year, Im also servicing my tools cleaning and oiling, the wheel came loose on my bench grinder so that needs sorting and my pillar drill has developed a bit of play. As we cannot go out on rides is anyone else going to bite the bullet and get cleaning their shed too ?

I'm not very good at bullet biting 🙄

Aye Joolz,

I still have boxes from 8 years ago when clearing my Mum and Dad's house that I have started to go through.  :-[

The 'fleet' still require attention, and the workshop needs a clear and tidy as well.

Then there is the garden, genealogy, old family photographs and a stack of books that I would like to read.

No piece for the wicked and I hope that I can avoid the lurgy to do it.

All the best with "biting the bullet", I think someone has got one of my Grandfather's Vicker's lined up for me. I'll just need to stay focused.  :-X

Good health, Bill

Well I keep my garage totally organised and spotlessly clean constantly. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪

Yes I’ll probably be biting the bullet a little bit this weekend 😢
Cheers, Michael

I hope it's a small bathroom, for one person at a time? ;D

Approximately 2.4 metres square Matt. One at a time only. But being a plumber I’ve installed a downstairs loo and I’ve also installed one in the old workshop too.... happy days 🤘🤘🚽🚽🚽

I’m on with pushing the walls out as mine been left for far too many years as I’m always rushing. I think from day one it was never organised as organising a small double garage as a fabrication and storage unit to work in takes a lot of future thinking about which I couldn’t do at the start until I started using it....

I've just completed one of my favorite tasks of the year - cleaning all the crap off the winter bike and seeing how it has survived with the help of Acf50. An annual task which heralds the arrival of spring and the start of the new riding season. Not this year though.  :'(
