    I always say that I am a bit privileged to see and experience a lot of the things I do. Like getting to spend three hours with Aaron at Gas Monkey Garage in Texas.

    More……….. Bored ??? Andy has various stockpiles of materials for use in his various projects. Old brass water meters?? Yes, he has a pile of them for casting. Craig was more interested in the lovely glass fronted internal parts. So we dismantled quite a few for repurposing. More...

    Hopefully nobody’s bored yet. Next up, some photos from the smithing workshop and broom making. I don’t expect anyone to understand the absolute pleasure derived from getting dirty, potentially hurt, while seeing something useful come out of a pile of parts. These road trips are incredible...

    So back to the next day. I had that job interview for an ophthalmology specialist job. The lady said my CV would go forward. But it seems the sales manager who is a part time Magistrate of Justice of the Peace did not like what he saw. Declined once I was back in England. After the...

    So the afternoon of Day 1 at Andy’s we were on the tools, so to speak. He allowed Craig and I to play with some of his machines in a cow pasture. Who would say no to that?? Sure, some would, but not the two of us. Few pictures. VIDEO: The next day we did a load of stuff including a...

    After our goodbyes to Clem, Kim and the animals we headed out over the street to a Kum and Go gas station for ice for our amazing Yeti icebox. Cold drinks on the road are nice. Next stop was Andy’s house near Terlton, which is near Tulsa in Oklahoma. Uneventful day and we almost got out of...
