mobsterone Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 Sunday No training Saturday but we went out and did some hill walking (above Heol Senni). Once home and relaxing I had my first experience of actually feeling an earthquake! We had a 4.4 on the richter scale (7.4km down and 20km NNE of Swansea). We thought someone had hit the building and went around checking that nothing had collapsed. One ceiling tile had fallen. Only later did we realize what it was.

mobsterone Posted March 1, 2018 Author Share Posted March 1, 2018 Thursday So after the gym yesterday we went hunting for the frozen waterfall we'd seen online (I'll add a photo).

mobsterone Posted March 2, 2018 Author Share Posted March 2, 2018 Friday No work today - no trains were running. Couple of grab shots of the frozen over ponds nearby then back in the warm.

mobsterone Posted March 3, 2018 Author Share Posted March 3, 2018 Saturday Faffing about with a frozen pipe bursting. It's all thawing out now and I'll fix this tomorrow. It's the 3rd day with no running water. Two hand pinch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobsterone Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 Sunday So we went out early to catch the last few bits of frozen ice as the thaw seems to have started. I knew I had one leak to fix from a burst pipe so we picked up supplies. The plan was to do more pick axe work later. But... on starting the repairs (first one was fairly straight forward using push-fit couplers) we turn on the water...not one more leak, not two, not even three but SIX more sections of pipe to fkin fix. It went dark before I got even half done. I'm gonna be busy this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobsterone Posted March 18, 2018 Author Share Posted March 18, 2018 (edited) SundayPick axe work In my case rather than use a pick axe I'm using an axe. Nylon handle and an axe head. I use Ironmind loops to add weights to the shaft head. Edited March 18, 2018 by mobsterone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
