Some more patient turning, 10 thou cuts, and I have Blank No. 3 in the lathe ready for cutting. The only incident was when I tried to improve my cutter and buggered it up. When I got it back in the lathe the tip broke so I installed a new one and that cured everything. Now I can go looking for my breakfast with a clear conscience!

Morning

Bob thinks our legal liability clause covers us, as it would any visitor and as no money is exchanging hands it is not a business. As it happens the routine checks on the machine showed a clean internally well looked after machine though a little dirty on the outside, and the reason why it wasn't working was simply a special setting had been left in position that a non sewer would not know about. Lucy is delighted.

It was a nice day yesterday. Our morning was taken up with the optician and the blood test. I left Bob at the opticians and walked up to the Infirmary for my blood test, and then walked home up the hill. I was nearly home before Bob passed me in the car. He was delayed because the opticians computer system went down which meant everything had to be recorded manually having to search for record cards and check Bobs existing prescription by manual checks rather than looking it up on the computer. Anyway the good news is neither of us need new lenses or glasses. We both had new last year. In the afternoon I cut back a few dead plants in the garden and cleared the windfall apples

This morning I have a couple of last minute tasks to do in preparation for my own sewing session this afternoon with Maxine. I also want to pop over to see Wendy to take a birthday present before she goes to Majorca for a week , tomorrow . This evening is zoom pilates . Its due to rain this morning but ok this afternoon. Have a good day all.
