Re: TODAY'S PENNINE WEATHER
Yesterday the forecast was accurate, it started raining Mid-afternoon and was still raining lightly when I went to bed at 20:00. This morning first thing it was windy but dry under a clear sky. Damp flags were evidence of rain during the night. It's still windy and dry but I think with more cloud. T...

All I know is that it was made by Parker Hale in Birmingham and it was something to do with allowing for wind in the aiming of target rifles. Well done. Now we need another object.

Re: DIALECT AND WORD MEANINGS
I tripped over this word this morning. Never seen it before.
Thalassophobia is an intense phobia or fear of large or deep water. If you have thalassophobia, you may be afraid of the ocean, sea, and large lakes. Some people may deal with a little anxiety about the ocean.
