I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....

I simply go to the garage and just drill holes in my 4mm steel topped home made work bench. Then weld them up.

I have on two occasions actually done some of the jobs I had waiting tk be done in there! Madness.

Once to mine to the bus stop, when the bus arrived gave the driver £10.00 and told him not to let her off till the money ran out. Rolling with laughter Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place,
so it doesn't take much to Censored us off.
