Thistle 3

The obsession continues. Well, actually it doesn't, but I had another go at the thistle drawing.
I glued up the top rank of table parts and poped over to put a patch on that roof job to make sure the rotten stuff won't fall on anybody. For the table I opted for a mixture of strap clamps or truck tie downs and pony clamps in the end, which seems to be working OK, I shall leave the thing tied up down there for a few days to make sure I get some hardening right to the core of the joint. Meanwhile there is work to do on the table top.
The annual hydrophobia injection was also administered today. Luckily it is only the dog that has to have one or the level of social unrest in Japan would be a lot higher. There is one little pup who gets a real dose of the toiletries every year, but the chap manages to get the needle in there somehow. Poop everywhere. Our pup doesn't even seem to feel the needle, but he gets pretty excited seeing lots of dogs all in one place.
Sammy passed his practical driving exam today also. So he just has to go and take his final written test and he is licensed to taxi.
We have had a return to chilly evenings, so I am sweltering on the sofa with the stove on. Back to work.
