Once more, into the breach!! This story shall the good man teach his son; And Crispin Crispian shall ne’er go by, >From this day to the ending of the world, But we in it shall be remember’d; We few, we happy few, we band of brothers . . .  Henry V, at Agincourt, in the Shakespeare play.    The ‘Old ...

It's still raining and I see that there is now an amber warning of rain that could affect Gloria and Sue....

They've consolidated all the accounts since March 27th and decided I owe them £84 which is better than I expected because their estimates were so wildly inaccurate. This account is based on today's readings so it will be accurate.

So pleased to hear that you had a clear run at the dentists. Best of luck to Bob for his scan and I hope you managed to dodge the traffic. https://www.oneguyfrombarlick.co.uk/app.php/gallery/image/28788/medium Rough dirty work this morning fettling castings using files and the grinding wheel.

Ah.... Thank you for that Tom, I had an idea I might have been wrong.....

THE RISE OF BILLYCOCK BRACEWELL. (9) I want to leave Christopher(1818) for the time being and step sideways to have a look at what his elder brother William(1813) was doing. In case you haven’t realised it, this is the famous ‘Billycock’ Bracewell of Barnoldswick. I say ‘famous’ because it’s impossi...

Bumped again. Essential history!

Taking it easy after the jab seems to have worked. Arm sore and I feel a bit achy but nothing more than that.

Something has changed at British Gas. I have had an email asking for meter readings for my end of month account. The first time that has happened. A welcome improvement!

Did you see THIS report yesterday? A woman in her 50s has died after she was attacked by her two registered XL bullies at a house in east London. The woman was treated by paramedics at the home in Cornwall Close, Hornchurch, but died at the scene on Monday afternoon. The two dogs were seized by arme...

It was a cooler day yesterday and heavily overcast. Late in the afternoon it brightened a little and eventually some sun broke through under the overcast at 20:00 but not much! First thing this morning it started to rain and it hasn't stopped since. The glass is down on 1005mb and the forecast promi...

It covered the whole of the ground floor of the two storey section and held cloth waiting for dispatch at the far end.

I didn't go anywhere, had a very easy day. I think it has paid off.

He's been bar crawling in Kiel Gloria.....
I shall be in the shed at 06:00 and will be hand filing my flywheel to get it ready for painting. Than I can move on to the bed.
That's going to be it for the day as we are promised wall to wall rain.

I shall do a pic later today. Haven't touched it and it's a mess. All the grasses have survived, we shall see later how many flowers.

They did when David did the pic! Bank Hall was to be demolished and cleared away.

You're getting far too good at these! Yes, Tom it is.
Is that you on Butts stack on Forgotten Corners?
Please find the next object!

And its founder, Clara Barton. In my case, it was a great gift, like St. Paul, I "was born free", and saved the pain of reaching it through years of struggle and doubt.  Clara Barton, 1905, in a letter explaining her belief in universal salvation.   May 21, 1881, was the birth-day of the A...

Do you go through the Kiel Canal Kev?

I don't feel too bad Gloria, but I am taking it easy just in case! A load of washing and frying my sweet potato chips will make me feel active!

I hope the dental check-up doesn't require any action or uncomfortable treatment. I have never lost my fear of dentists and am so glad I have managed to get this far without needing them!
I hope you have a good day....

https://www.oneguyfrombarlick.co.uk/app.php/gallery/image/28785/medium Only one image needed. I finished the initial turning of the flywheel and finished up with it being a perfect match to the crankshaft. Then I had a good clean up of the lathe and the bench and I am ready to do the hand fettling ...
