Well done Kev. You are of course quite right. The old vicarage which then became the Masonic Hall.
Now we need another object!

GRACE I should like to say that good batsman are born, not made, but my long experience comes up before me, and tells me that it is not so. W. G. Grace Grace’s “long experience” in cricket began in his family’s orchard, soon after he learned to walk. It ended in a local club match, on July 25, 1914....

This morning I fried sweet potato chips using some reduced price veggies I got at the Co-op yesterday.

Yes Kev. Now tell me where it was....

"To sink your own ship on purpose."
That one is wrong Cathy, they have confused scuppered and scuttled.

Oh Sue! I am so sorry to hear about the theft. It's no wonder your usual vigilance was lessened, all that kerfuffle about the seats. I hope things go better today! https://oneguyfrombarlick.co.uk/app.php/gallery/image/30353/medium Another small step forwards. I have made the valve rod, threaded it a...

Another small step forwards. I have made the valve rod, threaded it at each end and started on making the clevis which will join the rod to the eccentric rod. I shall finish it tomorrow. Right now I want my breakfast.

I have always been very suspicious of our obsession with lawns.... It appears I was not the only one!

I still believe in this article! Young children need more TLC these days than we did.

Hot meat and veggies. It's on full song now and tastes lovely!

See THIS update on the Diane Abbott affair.... Updated 16 minutes ago "It is obvious this Labour leadership wants me out", Diane Abbott has told BBC's Newsnight, following her suspension from the party over comments she made about racism. The suspension means Abbott will sit as an independ...

Glasshouses waterwheel in 1979 before it was dismantled and moved to Quarry Bank at Styal. This is the water regulating gear on the supply side of the wheel.

Yesterday afternoon was overcast and the only surprise was a light spatter of rain around 15:30 that wasn't on the hymn sheet. There was no late sun. This morning is calm and overcast but dry. The glass is down on 1010mb and the forecast is for a day of sunny intervals and later this evening a yello...

I think it's just a case of an obscure dialect word passing under the radar of the lexicographers Cathy.

I like it Peter....

What was it?

That sounds like an obstacle course Sue! I'm glad you can keep positive. I'm not sure I could be as sanguine about the matter! I shall be in the shed early doors working on my valve train. I am acutely aware that I should be thinking about a coat of black paint for the castings. I think I subconscio...

And introduce something I know Ian advocates, compulsory voting like the Australian model. Instead, we demand voter ID which it is admitted has further reduced numbers who vote. Do politicians really want our scrutiny and oversight? THIS is what caught my attention this morning.... MP Diane Abbott h...

HERE'S the latest BBC take on it Peter.... My question is how is it even possible to attach so much information to an email message. I think back to when my daughter Janet was put in charge of setting up a secure computer system to hold all the sensitive data bases used by the Western Australian po...

I like that Kev. Never seen the risers faced like that before.... Nice one.

I liked Connie Francis and will seek out that LP David. I remember David Kelly well. I agree with you, a very unsatisfactory affair. It was never resolved as far as I was concerned. I started the video but saw it was over an hour, too much for early morning viewing!

Kev has it, it's a de-burring tool and very efficient.
Now we need another object.

STEAM BUGGY Have you heard of the wonderful one-hoss-shay, That was built in such a logical way? Thus the ‘autocrat of the breakfast-table,’ Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., began his historical poem “The Deacon’s Masterpiece: or, the Wonderful One-Hoss-Shay.” It first appeared in The Atlantic Monthly fo...

Yes I found all those Cathy but no mention of it as a dialect verb meaning to bounce down a slope.....
