At least I was up at a reasonable time, for a change and had the usual couple of hours on the web pages. And although I didn’t advance far down the Canso Peninsula I managed to cover about 750 years and three continents, such is the controversy surrounding the alleged voyage of Sir Henry Sinclair to Chedabucto Bay<\/a> sometime in the late 14th Century.<\/p>\n

I carried on with Caliburn and he is now all reassembled and roadworthy, with a nice, clean and tidy cab and almost all the electrics working. You’ve no idea how much junk I took out, and how much I threw away either, but I didn’t find the SatNav, which is a pain. Mind you, a couple of quid, 5 Canadian cents and about 2 Euros made it worthwhile from that point of view. I would rather have the SatNav though.<\/p>\n

We went for a run into Pionsat to draw some cash and to go to the Post Office to post Mike’s birthday present but blast it – it’s POETS Day isn’t it? And I missed the post. <\/p>\n

Back here I didn’t manage to empty out the back of Caliburn as we had a torrential downpour – 14.5mm of rain fell and that’s a lot. Fed up with this blasted non-working water system, I dismantled it in the pouring rain and cleaned it all out. Now some kind of water is getting through but still nothing like enough and I’ll have to redesign it. I know a way to make it work.<\/p>\n

But this weekend I’m really busy and so it won’t be until Monday that I can carry on.<\/p>\n
