Well I seem to be slipping into a routine now....dirty weeks and clean weekends ha ha
This week I have been taking advantage of the damp weather and sanding the old, dark and dirty varnish off the remaining woodwork, above the gunnels and the roof.....goggles and facemask essential....just wish they wouldnt steam up so quickly, the goggles that is....anyway I have done about 1/3 but have had to vary the jobs so that I don't knacker the same muscles up.....so I am also tackling the back step where one of the batteries will be, and the bottom step will be for cooking stuff, pans etc. This needed de-rusting and is now ready for a coat of Hammerite.......but the remaining woodwork will need to be done before any more paint can happen. It was hard doing the roof but well worth the effort....all finished by hand eh!
And here is another effort with interior pics.....
