Spend the last week on a Caterpillar 349E working on the HS2.

Not allowed to take a photo on site, so you will have to do with a stock photo.

Not so much at work but at home I changed our two 50w LED floodlights to two 150w floodlights. (Separate corners of the house). What a difference that makes! Supposedly 16.000 lumens each.

Perfect for letting the dogs out in the evening before going to bed. Lights up the garden quite nicely.

Did a bit of tiling over the last couple of days.

Flying Torquewrench · 02-12-2021, 22:00

And some floor tiles too.

Looks nice but is the cold feed to the WC on the wrong side? and the waste pipe looks a tad high, but pics can lie, Rick

Cheers Rick. As far as I am aware everything is correct but I was only there to do the tiling. The pipework is all done by the plumber.
