Up a little earlier today to change a bit of fence that had beeen irritating me all night. The boundary (with Vernon’s) gatepost went from leaning several inches to the east to roughly the same to the west when I strained up the post back into its fence line again. The solution was to redo the stay post with a big concrete block and I’d done that and restrained the fence before Mark arrived at 9:00 am. By 11:00 am I’d actually crimped the wires and filled in the holes, cleared away the rubbish, and declared victory.
Meanwhile Mark completed the 26 intermediate posts ready for me to string up the seven wires.
Also, it was a busy morning, I finished the second top coat of Karaka Green on the new gate, nicely coinciding with the remains of the puddle of paint on the cottage kitchen floor.
Another 20 metre HDMI cable and wall plate arrived, as did the very swish “remote extender” which is supposed to make it extremely simple to change the MySky HDi channel from anywhere in the house – no magic eyes to plug in, just a very smart little transmitter that actually goes inside the MySky HDi remote itself.
