STRIPPING

On the way to a auction at York when the car we was traveling in a Land Rover Discovery , the cam belt broke not good , we think but hope that it is not terminal it would be ten grand for  a new engine and around four for a reconditioned one . The belt was only replaced a few months ago it should not have broke it was done on the year of car and not on  the mileage the garage that fitted it are to blame and  they need to step up with a new engine a twenty thousand pound motor ruined not good the cost of the engine is the same cost as the car I pick up Friday.


Finally made it to season seven of "Game Of Thrones" can't wait to watch the first episode .
Stripped our Grandfather clock which Helen stained and lacquered a few years ago it took me around six hours to get it looking how it looked like when we first got it , we also bought a coffee table with a side drawer in it from the same person we bought the tv stand off it was £25 another bargain .I cut the legs down so it was at a lower level it was a lot higher than needed we need to get some Briwax one of the best you can get for finishing off pine furniture , I hate stripping and restoring furniture .
