As reported elsewhere when replacing my shed. I rediscovered my fishing tackle and have been refurbishing and replacing some of the bits. Realised we didn't have a forum for fishing subjects so I have added a new one. I said I might give my tackle another airing so to that end I have re-licensed mys...

Although enlightening, your bread video leaves out a fundamental, none of it will sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. If you drop it, it will bounce. I produced a sourdough loaf on Tuesday, started the process on Monday morning. It has active sourdough starter, water, flour and salt, four hours ...

To my gym session. Could only put in about 75% effort in this morning, but i did manage all the class. I think I have some kind of viral thing going on, started yesterday, losing my voice and I have a very dry cough. I don't feel particularly ill, no temperature but definitely not 100% on the energy...

There is a notice on the app that says the courier already has my parcel. That was there when I first checked this morning so it makes even less sense.

Logistics? I have been tracking an order I made due to be delivered today. I had tracking info this morning at 09.30 that gave a delivery time of 16.30 to 18.30 today. I shoved the tracking info into their app and its showed the driver in Nelson at 10am, Colne at 10.45 and he was in Barlick by 11.30...

is it an apron made from scrap cloth at the mill?

In my view rubbish TV like this is just asking for trouble. What is wrong with courting a girl, you get to know one another and make a proper decision as to whether you are compatible enough for marriage. I know there have always been whirlwind courtships, some of which last, but many don't. I think...

Yes, Ray is the one at the start of the video Tripps posted. We went to see Dr Hook at Belle Vue in 1972 I think it was, a good band.

I took my Eleven Plus in 1964 and passed but elected not to go to grammar school. My brother had done that and it did him no good at all. Up early to catch the train and home late. He left at 16 and didn't do Sixth Form etc but went directly into work. My experience in turning down grammar school wa...

There's a few been mown round here also Gloria. Noticed when I took Sally on to Skipton this morning for the train.

Is it a pill cutter?

Posh version!

I will be blind baking bottoms then filling them with meat and potato before shoving the lids on. Two for the freezer and one for my tea.

Oh, I should report that my shed build is finished, piece of cake working from a flat level base!. I have jet washed all of the flags piecemeal as we have moved the pots around. Sally has given the white stone paint a refresh all the way round the yard at the same time. Just have next doors kitchen ...

I saw it on my Tic Tock feed Gloria sometime last week I think it was.

Regardless of what Starmer says, it wont be up to him if he stays. They shouldn't worry about a leadership chang, they have along way to go to catch up with the death throws of the Tories. Tory Leader Kemmy is spouting as if they have a chance of forming the next government. :laugh5: One of the comm...

That banner is on display at Clarion House.

The Labour Party could try a bit of socialism. Fat chance with the media hype that would follow. Mind you it would need a Socialist PM to sell it properly.

Usually the gym late morning but not today. We are attending the funeral of Sally's cousin Donald, about the same age as me. Taken unexpectedly ill a couple of weeks ago and went downhill fast and died.Donald was a generally fit bloke and ex military so quite a shock. I was talking to him at a birth...

Cavalry arrived after lunch in the shape of my joiner Alan. He measured up and then went to sort a piece of outdoor five ply timber to make a stable level base for the shed. I pulled the shed to bits while he was away, quite easy as I only had 4 screws to take out to release the roof. He was back in...

My storage was delivered this morning at 9am. After un-boxing and checking all the bits I started screwing it together at 9.30. All went well with the base, both sides, the back and the roof which you secure at the back rail but leave the front loose to fit the doors. I fitted the upper and lower ra...

hey seem to be making a big production of the delivery Ian.... I hope they can manage it today! All sorted delivery wise Stanley. Driver called me when he was on his way from Rochdale said it would be about an hour, He and his mate rocked up just after 9am in a Transit Van. Will put my temporary wo...

Received a text this morning regarding delivery of our new storage shed. Same as last time, the driver is supposed to ring us before he does the drop, ideal if you need to give him local access information. Didn't happen last time when they abandoned the delivery due to the "really steep" ...

Here you go Kev.

There is a nice Turkish restaurant in Skipton, been a few times, excellent food.

Today is the Silentnight Michael Hartley memorial football match at Victory Park. There are both Junior and Senior games. Proceeds are for Bosom Friends. First deployment of our new Gazebo. We are running a Tombola for the day. We will have help deploying but will have to pack up ourselves, children...
