Sandy bacon frazzles

One of those days to remember. We decided to drive to the seaside on a whim, Mablethorpe to be exact. The sun beat down all day, although it has been very windy. Sam just loves the sand and the sea. He sat with his boat and bucket and spade clasped to his chest for the whole two hour drive.

Little mac

A holiday, at last, be it at home. Not sure whether it's less stressful than being at work or not...
Just bought a zither to work on, along with restoring the bagpipes, re-working the bellows on the reed organ, restoring an auto harp for jenny, restringing my sitar,..my classic Harold Peterson Guitar, Mr Doyle's 12 string mandolin, my own 12 string mando, resetting the Mandola and hanging a ceiling in my workshop.
P.s. Reason for the title...I need a liitle mac, it's the name of the valve that stops your bagpipe from deflating, mine are very deflated currently. They will breathe life soon, it is my mission!
Oh yeah,There's apparently some house jobs to do too!
