Thread started at gone 1am eh? Yes love...of course you were only 5 minutes behind me to bed!
TIM...I tried the mask on last night and it blocks sudden brightness...very cool.

I am concerned about something though. You advise having someone to make brews, fetch beers etc...I already do that. I think I may be being too good to him!

DO you have any rooms to-let? Sounds like a sweet deal round at your gaff.

Last time I had arc eye years ago I was by myself for the weekend, I ended up phoning my mother to take me to A&E. Getting back home and being effectively blind for the weekend was not fun.

Simple things like getting a brew/food. OK for you girlies but going for a P hoping you were pointing in the right direction.

Metal, next question.

Whatever I need/want to weld really.
  • A dog guard for the disco
  • To make the odd bracket here and there
  • A stand for my BBQ (oil drum, was going to be a blast cabinet but had too many holes in so I chopped it in half)
  • Frames for storage in vehicles
  • And I have a Land Rover so mainly that
Oh yeah Tim, it's an auto mask so I can see where I'm putting the torch and as soon as it arcs the mask darkens
