man with a van

Here's my cousin Nick, sitting in his van, which he calls one of the tools of his trade. His trade is plastering, and he is especially skilled at specialist mouldings (ceiling roses, cornices, etc - you can see some of his work HERE).

Nick is a week older than I am. We don't see each other very often as he lives in Lincolnshire, so it was good to have him to stay for a night and a catch-up. We went out for a meal last night, sampling the excellent vegan menu at Lockards Farm. Unfortunately on the way there, my brakes failed - I put my foot down on the pedal and it wouldn't move...luckily the roads were quiet and I could use the gears to slow down at the roundabouts on the bypass..the RAC came between our main course and dessert and my car got towed to the garage. D came to pick us up later on. I'm just glad we are all safe and sound :-)
