Watched part 2 of The Nest last night, it really does keep the attention. Well worth a catch up.

A snipers rifle? Because it's long.

Blyth Battery??

I thought about lifting cannons up to the fort on Shirley Heights but didn't suggest it because I thought they would be too heavy for that object. The new object - an ex-naval gun emplaced in a coastal bunker. For a wild guess - from HMS Rodney or HMS Nelson? It says lift with 2 & 3 sheave blocks 4...

For dragging / lifting cannons up the cliff face.

I've got to give you that, here's the explaination, well done.

If no ones any nearer by tomorrow lunch I will come clean.

Ooh permission to abuse, noted I'll not be as nice next time.

It is on Antigua Tiz, it's on Shirley Heights above English Harbour. Now have a think what it could be lifting. And no it's not Eric Clapton.

Just give us a kick when you need some more.

Not a well or a shaft, you're right it is to do with lifting. Think where I was on an earlier post I put on.

Not for pulling boats up a beach. More for lifting, but what?

Stanley, you mentioned boats, are you going off what you see in the top right hand corner which looks like water? It's not, it's the corner of a building and its shadow.

I'll keep stum for a bit Love. If I ask the questions I have about it's use it will give the game away. Technically it's still a mystery to me....

No Stanley not to do with boats really, maybe loosely.

Yes got a receipt.

iPad wouldn't do it, but iPhone has. iPad a bit ancient.

When i go into "donate" on iPad it's just giving me a blank screen with small PayPal written on it.
Sorted, done it on iPhone.
Donated.

Try this, the hand is there to give an idea of the size.

Watched Belgravia on catch up last night, easy watching, very Downton. Better than I thought it would be after the first one.

Is the triangular thing something to do with hay making?

It's round so it can't tip right over?

Is the circular stone a feed trough?
Is the other thing for dibbing holes to plant something?

That sounds all sensible Sue. Xx

Watched the beginning of a new series on bbc1 last night, The Nest, looks like it could be good. Problem was, there seemed to be a lot of muttering going on, so we ended up clicking the subtitles on.
