After spending a great deal of time and money sprucing up our bungalow the new tenants moved in today.
Cleared the garage and made 3 trips to the local recycling centre, still open if you book.
So I need another project to keep me going. Starting the office remodelling and decorating tomorrow.
What are your projects to stop you going stir crazy ?

Unfortunately for me covid has left me too breathless to do anything, probably for some months to come. Only today I found that just cleaning the car windows was beyond my capacity.
I don't have any actual plans for when I am able to function but one thing is for sure, they will include much use of the MH
 
I’m on the lookout for a motorcycle project. Not a basket case but something that needs some work to get back on the road.

I would really like to do a BMW Isetta three wheeler but they are silly money
Oh an Isetta :) We sold ours at the end of last year . OH did all the work to restore it and many tears after 40 years of ownership .

You are the same as me. Can’t be arsed 👎
 
I'm taking the current lockdown as an opportunity to do bugger all.
I'm in the process of repointing a mates bungalow.
3/4 way through the gable end and weather turned.... Freezing cold and constant rain is not good for me or the mortar.

Tempted to build a bigger motorhome.

I have bits to do for the next month (been building vans for someone since the first lockdown), but then nothing (the guy I've been building for is having to close and let his unit go as his main business has been decimated by Covid).

I may even get a unit myself and start building vans. Maybe.
 
Well iv just bought a 1973 Belarus mt 52 tractor, to keep me out of mischief, would have took a photo if I had known this thread was here, very rare in UK but millions in Russia and India.
If anyone is interested I will take a photo of it tomorrow. (y) :doh:
Edit this is the 25th tractor we have on the farm now. (y) (y)(y):giggle:

You are not alone. I have no incentive and find just getting through the day takes its toll. :( with me I think depression comes into it, made worse by breathlessness since health issue some months ago. VIcious circle. Think I just need someone to supervise jobs, which isn't like me.

Hope you find your mojo soon. Keep safe.
 
I tried lifting some sleepers. So I could paint the fence. Silly me. My shoulders should be ok soon
.then I can paint the fence

Got another one now that we are going to paint, as we are having to do a bit at the tin work.

Same here , no go in me at all, couple of hours at a time in workshop, then sit down for a while, and i had it April 2020.
Got a list as long as my arm, just slowly going thro' it.

Happy travels everyone

Thanks chaser yours sounds like a production line ;) A good friend of mine had just the one old tractor, it was a state when he go it years ago but he got himself a large grass cutter roller and made it pay towards its keep by cutting local cricket grounds and the like.

no way are you the worst, bought floating shelves for the study a few years before I retired still waiting for them to be put up, (retired in 2010)
