Insert noises of grinding teeth and having spoken too soon about "only" having 4 seams to go. Insert mutterings as needles skip and it looks like machine needs oiling, leastwise she isn't running smoothly. Insert wonderings about where to put the oil - model obscure enought that never did manage to find any sort on manual online. Insert not getting anything more done tonight - which means I am not going to get any more done on the tent this week - starting to work with pieces of fabric too large to handle by myself.
I'd insert very loud swearing but have hit the stage where it is just another bloody thing going wrong and the fatalism has set in. No swearing now but about to look for chocolate.
Starting to contemplate hand sewing the fucking seams just to get them done - after all, it is only a bit over 2.5 m per seam and two rows of stitching... But I am not certain my neck would talk to me after that.
Not that nuts... yet.
But the bed only needs tabs filed down to fit and holes and pegs done ie it is at the stage where it can be done onsite.
That just leaves the tent frame...
Looks like Sat and Sun in a weeks time are going to be VERY busy.
