New Windows

We are having new windows upstairs in our house.  The old 1930s windows come out...
Some packing we found behind the old windows.  It's a bag from an old local baker and butchers shop called Smith and Vospers.
Joe's room waiting for the new window... 
The new windows waiting to go in....

IOW Bike Ride Danny & Joe

Me and Joe headed over to the Isle of Wight for a spot of biking and an overnight at Peter's.
We liked the look of this place :-)

We spent the night at Pete, Julia, Lily and Iris's house in Cowes and next headed across to East Cowes on the chain ferry... 
And back Pompey...
We rode along to the Hayling Ferry...
And back to Emsworth....
Great ride.  1 train, 4 ferries and a bunch of bike tracks :-)
