Colder Weather

 I'm damned if I'm putting the heating on till its freezing, but on cool days my tea goes cold quickly on the desk.  Enter the halogen table lamp I got off Freegle.  I keep my tea hot for ages with the lamp pulled down low.....Sorted!

Treasure

Raw material is all

Cutting Back

Had an offer for both my Rascal Vans today, being skint I might have to say yes.  Bummer!  Well I can't afford to fix them so they might as well go. 

On a cheaper build, I started putting bike parts in a pile, for my next project, the Penny Fakething.

He's a pic of one, I hope mine is refreshingly different.......

This is Johnny Payphone, inventor of the concept,

Whats in a name?

Some people may wonder why I'm called the Rude Mechanic.........

They can FUCK OFF..............

Faketiques

I have a large pile of old antique artifacts, bike parts, typewriters and tools that I intend to transform into new and implausible Faketiques.  I hope my mate Robbie's technique of announcing his plans and then being forced to back up his words with action will pay off for me.  We'll see.  The main thing is to create new treasure from old shite, wish me luck..........
