Good morning everyone. we have a nice sunny start to the day with rain forecast for later (as it did yesterday). So breakfast first then go out an start painting the topcoat on my bench. Then do a bit of gardening to keep the Boss happy. Then later on put my feet up and watch the Canadian Grand Prix with a couple of glasses of cider. If all goes to plan I'll be Gobsmacked.

Good morning Lyn, no I havn't the rain won't let me. I have just come in again.

So much for painting my bench. There are so many parts to it, and with so much rain it's taken ages and three attempts to just undercoat it.. Now I need to gloss paint it. It's looking like a few days more yet.

Sounds like a bit of an old fashioned way to paint a bench SB, Is this garden furniture?
The coloured stains are pretty good and go on really quick, no brush strokes to worry about.

Morning Volty.

This is a very well made traditional bench, and I want it painted to reflect it's quality. I don't like the cheap and nasty treatments.
They don't come in the colour I want or the finish I want anyway. also It's to match the wooden swing bench that's next on the list. As I am building a new frame for the swing bench they wouldn't match because of the different materials and original coatings. SB

What a rubbish morning, when Phil sees this he won't surface until about 4 Oclock. Zane will have to take himself for a walk.
It looks like Astoness has hibernated (nothing new there), and Voltman must have gone back up to his Spaceship. I am Brassed off, I am really brassed off, I am Really Really Brassed off. In fact my Brassed has never been so off. (and that really Brasses me off).

Afternoon all,
SB it's pi***ing down here, and I'm as brassed off as you or even more so.
Lyn, any search you do for St. Mathews will cost you £19.50 according to their web site.

SB, I am still waiting for paint to be delivered,like I said a couple of posts ago I will never use Royal Mail again for any delivery, good job the client is a friend of mine and prepared to wait to have the job done.

Can't you rig up a shelter to do your painting in.

No to a shelter John, The Bench is six feet long and I havn't got the space I'll just have to be patient. I have a few days off next week I hope I can do it then. At least I'm getting a bit of a rest.

Good morning all, I see I have awoke to a typical English summers day. Why do those powers that be always claim that we have drought conditions whilst it is raining?

Because someone gets paid for it Phil

I wonder if I can get paid for spouting off about things that I know very little about or about things other so called geniuses that are being paid a fortune with our money have caused.

Before anyone says that I already spout off about things I know very little about there is just one little difference I don't get paid for it.
