Leo has been getting up at 3am ish the last few weeks and for just a cuddle or his quilt moving cos it was off him. I think its a little habbit he is getting into so last night true to form he was shouting mummy mummy so i said to steph just leave him cos there wont be anything wrong and he will go back to sleep. 45 minutes later he was still at it so steph went to see and the poor little begger had been sick all in his bed. I tells ya. Talk about the boy that cried wolf.

Aww, bless him

I remember the days of being sick in bed; one time when I was quite young I wasnt exactly sure what it was. It looked like porridge to me and I seem to remember prodding it to see if it had the same consistency. Thankfully I didnt get as far as wanting to eat the porridge!

Got Dillon (my 10 year old son) a mechano set. Will be building a digger with him next time he is round and i hope he likes it but will see.

I would have thought that this would be perfect for prototyping robots, more interesting than a digger, good practice too.

Good idea dave i actually didnt think of that. I have never done mechano before so will do a robot with Dillon after we build the Digger. Its got motors with too so looking forward to it.

After cutting hardox with my angle grinder i have discovered the best set of cutting discs for the job. I progressed up from Silverline which just didnt do diddly, bough some norton ones from Screwfix and they were pretty good but the best ones i have used are Eng-Weld cutting discs. they go through hardox with ease and last twice as long as norton and 30 times longer than silverline. so there you have my tip of the day

DOH just after buying some discs to cut hardox

We did it the easy way, we bought our hardox cut to size, weve now just got to weld it together.

So far weve only assembled the base but well get there.
