No pictures, because nothing was worth it. It's been a cold, windy day, so just a few odd jobs, many of which weren't fully successful.
I tarted up the white paint around the Chalet window, to neaten it up and improve the free illumination. I'm contemplating a less strident colour on the bulk of the building, to reduce the glare outside and to increase the solar gain - we'll see, it's not high on the list. I had the white paint on the go as I was redoing the white edges on the steps, to increase the visibility at night, plus the ends of the railings, the gate handles, etc. It really helps.
A bit more weeding, until i got fed up with the wind.
I've long been annoyed by the short length of the power lead on the Karcher pressure washer and resolved to replace it with the much longer scavenged flylead from the floodlight, as that will be wired in permanently shortly. Well, some bright spark thought it really 'enhanced the safety' to make that as difficult as possible, there's a rather specific hexagonal grommet/strain relief that the cable is firmly fixed into, glued or ultrasonically welded, I suspect. You really need to reuse this, but it's a bit of a job to get it off in a still-reusable state. This, plus crimped connectors, led me to put it all back for now, but I will get around the obstructions at some point. The 'moulded on' plug has the outer part of the cable not firmly fixed into it, so the innards of the plug are potentially exposed to water, as you need to have the extension socket too close to the action, especially on a windy day. No need to have any of these problems, really, but I will defeat the sods. It needs doing, it's an annoyance every time it's used, having the drag the extension whenever you move a few yards.
The early evening was taken up with the weekly shopping expedition.
