ALL SCREWED UP

Bought a Bosch 650 watt hammer drill it was only £45 and  it is good enough  for what i want the next drill up would have cost me £85 seeing i had saved money on the cheaper model i also bought a Bosch cordless drill with two batteries which i will use as a screw driver more than a drill .I also bought a large sized Stanley hacksaw and five extra blades ,  a narrow gauge cold chisel and a lump hammer  for when i cut a hole in the wall for the dryer outlet .



I bought two trays of wood screws each containing 1200 assorted screws of various lengths and gauge  , i also bought a Makita drill and bit set which contained 150 separate bits and assorted screw driver pieces and socket heads  , which hopefully should unscrew or fix most fastenings i am likely to come across .



I also decided whilst buying the tools  that i would spend some cash on  a Bosch 3000w  leaf vacuum/blower this looks a great piece of kit i hopefully will get to fire it up also on the weekend .





We need one to pick up  the hundreds of oak leaves that are now falling  daily from the three oak trees that are near us and drop their leafs that land on the grass  verges and paths around our van including on and under the decking .

I got some more various sized paint brushes and a tin of Cornish cream textured masonry paint to cover the external walls of the out building and a small tin of  white gloss paint for the two windows on the side elevation .
So all hands on deck and let the work commence well not till the weekend at least .

We have to dinner dates planned one hopefully this weekend with our friend Charlie and his girlfriend and the Sunday after with my twin sister and her husband Alan we will eat locally at either a inn or pub near to home .
