The Arbalk morning register!

[Stephen Blair]

Morning, ended up on call outs yesterday afternoon, so we are off to tidy up a Scots Pine I made safe.  Is this the shortest day?  Google says it is but I thought it was yesterday.

Morning all

 

Last day before Xmas, commissioning tank install and should be done for 2pm. Ankle is holding up with a crutch as support, so hopefully in a few more days i'll be able to weight bare fully, with a limp

 

Merry Xmas to all and a Happy New Year.

 

See you on the other side.

Very belated good morning,

 

Been chilling with family, and at long long last my new Hilux has finally arrived at the dealer. Once beacons fitted it will be a nice late Christmas present to myself😀. 

 

Have fun, one and all.

I thought it was yesterday too, but then I heard something on the radio about it being at around 3am this

morning. I didn't quite understand that, as I thought the solstice was a day, not a time.

Up in Stockholm with the family. Had to pop to the German embassy to get the girls' passports renewed. Went to the Vasa Museum afterwards, which was brilliant. 

 

Rather snowy here. Minus 4c and about 10cm snow lying.
