I did a medium thorough chain clean and then moved on to clothing repairs. A week ago I broke my favourite pair of shorts when they got over cooked in a dryer. They have taped seams and one (critical) had parted ways.

After a week of planning I used my gas stove to heat my adjusted wrench from my toolkit. Gradually increasing the heat, and repeated application, found a sweet spot and satisfaction.

Oh, I did remove the shorts first by the way.

I arrived in deepest Pornic today. I had a celebration McDonald's which was pretty rubbish. Should have had the Cassoulet.
