Finally got round to insulating my loft hatch.
Now the thin piece of plywood, has some suitable insulation on it, to fill the void.

Fixed my mitre saw blade guard all by myself. AND recognised the issue before anybody lost any fingers. AND didn’t lose any fingers in the process either. AND it still works.
I’m going to sit in the corner looking smug for the rest of the evening. Also. I’m not going to touch anything else in case my luck runs out.

Watching the boy learn words…
Fisting prawn crackers into sweet chilli sauce…
Screws up his face
“SPIHEEE!”
Continues to stuff his face on the prawn crackers and sauce whilst eating the sauce with a spoon. 
Kids, horrendous.

Just dropped the car to the local garage during a break in the weather tonight, so they can start work in the morning.
Live in a small village, and on my walk back, passed three defibrillators, and know there’s another two elsewhere.
And its not a big village.

New intake coming up in Jan for junior cadets. Sent out forms to our waiting list (never had a waiting list before 6 months ago).
There are very nearly as many people on the list as we have cadets.
Within 20 minutes, we had more returned forms than places and have had to direct people to other squadrons, a reserve list and our next intake in April.

So…whatbare you doing that makes it so attractive for new recruits?
I also have a wait list that if all joined would more than double our cadet numbers
We’re in a similar position, how are you handling the applications? First come first serve, by age, or something different?
We’ve had consistently higher intakes than before Covid, our limitation is now that we don’t have sufficient staff for us to take on all the potential cadets who want to join.
