I agree David. Sometimes the impression on us humans is more important than pure mathematical averages.
Statistically speaking, a man with one foot on a block of Ice and the other in a bucket of boiling water is just comfortable thank you.........

I shall be in the shed this morning as usual working on my crankshafts. I think I might be frying my sweet potato chips later this morning. Looks like a wet day apart from the morning so I might not get out for a walk.

Fermented products department..... I am still waiting for my brown vinegar even though have been told it is in the post.

Thank God for that.... Thanks Lads.....

I think they will be regarding Thursday with a certain degree of perturbation.

Mothering Sundays As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you, and you will be comforted over Jerusalem.   Book of Isaiah, 66:13.  It is well known that our ‘Mothers’ Day’ is a modern invention, the brainchild of Anna Maria Jarvis (1864-1948), midwifed by President Woodrow Wilson’s Mothers...

Cooking is done, everything put away and the hob is clean. I shall do nothing very slowly now.....

I'm back up after a good sleep and having a pot of tea. I shall be into cooking veggies very soon.

I missed that one Wendy!

That will have annoyed you Sue! Hope it clears up all right. https://www.oneguyfrombarlick.co.uk/app.php/gallery/image/28685/medium Straight into muck shifting this morning and a straight half hour of heavy turning (for a small lathe....) Then finish and polish this leg, clear the chips up and dial ...

You're still warmer than we are Cathy and our forecast rain has started early.

I still believe John and I were thinking straight. All history isn't neatly divided up by clear evidence. Sometimes we have to use our heads!

Cartographer of Pittsburgh, PA. When the sins of our fathers visit us, we do not have to play host.   From Fences (1983), by August Wilson.     Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was where Great Lakes iron ore and eastern coal met to make steel, and where steel made money.   So we find some of the great name...

THIS piece of political news trumps all others this morning. Former minister and Conservative MP Dan Poulter has defected to Labour. In an exclusive TV interview, the MP for Central Suffolk and North Ipswich told the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg that he could no longer look his NHS colleagues...

Ross Mill stack being felled in 1983. The rest of the mill went in 1982. The Lancashire spinning industry was dead.

Almost the last of the veggies X three. I shall be cooking today!

Indeed!

I think he was upset!

Yesterday afternoon was cold and gloomy, no hail in Barlick that I saw but spatters of rain. At 20:00 it was calm, cool and dry. This morning it was the same and it hasn't changed. The glass is down on 1001mb and the forecast is for an overcast day with rain expected from 08:99 to around noon.The ma...

I stand corrected Cathy! (But not bitten....)
Next object?

I agree with you and sympathise Peter. Too many commercial interests investing in agriculture have no concept of the time scales involved in reaching production. See THIS BBC report..... A giant 3D printer, which is big enough to make a house, has been unveiled at the University of Maine. The univer...

Alles Gut!

I'll finish Line of Duty before I think about my next venture....

Today I will be catching up with the site, making up for my oversleep, doing some turning in the Shed and cooking my veggies. So I shall be busy.....
