There are days when things just don't go right. For me the day started with putting banners out for the Spring Bank Holiday events at the Rocks By Rail Museum. IU needed to replace the banners from the last event and that usually means a straight swap. However someone had taken some of the posts that I use from two of the sites which was not a great start to the day. Eventually arriving at the Museum I needed to fit a new drive belt to the mower. I had got the belt and that was a straightforward job to fit.
But, I also needed to fit a new pull cord to the starter. Things did not go well! To cut a long story short, the mechanism exploded into parts as I worked on it with a large spring uncoiling its way across the floor. Despite getting it all back together, it refused to work as it should. By this time it was almost time to go home so I put the mower away in disgust!
At least some things were going right for the others with more ballast being added to the track from the Trout ballast wagon - there's those fish references again! At least that did not break!
Anyway, the day is over so tomorrow will be better!
