This afternoon, home early from work so I took to thinking "quiet afternoon in the workshop.... civilised...!!!" That is... until the neighbours from hell cranked their stereo... you can imagine the din.. yon mindless thump....thump....thump racket that's so popular with the boy racers...c/w the sickening rattle that only well and truly blown speakers can create... not that the state of the speakers impaired their desire to crank this noise to the max.. So I'm sat having a cuppa... watchin the dust collectors slowly vibrate over the shelves in time to the din.. temper gradually building to a gentle simmer....
Then something inside me snaps... fired up the DVD... loaded AC/DC live in Madrid... REALLY cranked the woofer... and retired to the shop...
SWMBO saw the look on my face. never said a word as she scurried to her room clutchin the phone...
There's something about AC/DC... makes me feel like I'm 16 all over again... foot tappin in time... head bangin.... hair flying... raw unadulterated self indulgence... LOVED it..
2 hours of 16 year old energy flowin thru these auld hands.. planes swishin.. shavings coursing effortlessly into the air... mannnnnnnn.... I gotta do this more often...
DVD finishes... stock's planed to thickness.... crosscut to length.... ripped to width and edges jointed.... ALL handraulic... and the neighbours from hell..???.... silent... absolutely silent..... I REALLY gotta do this more often... I jus wish I'd Angus's energy...!!!!!!
