Re: WHAT ATTRACTED YOUR ATTENTION TODAY?

I had chicken pox when I was in my teens, it was very unpleasant. I always associate it with the Beatles Help! LP and a sunny week in the caravan on the East Coast recovering.

Re: Today I shall be Mainly...

After lunch I will be heading out onto Skipton Old Road, wearing a lot of warm clothing topped by a fluorescent vest, to pick up bags full of litter from the verges. It is Lothersdale's litter picking day but I like to join in as part of the road is within that parish.

Re: ENERGY MATTERS

Pendle Forest Ian. I'm told it has Arquiva A and B transponders for Smart meter data using LoRa radio. The tricky bit is coupling it with the meter I believe.

Two large off road type electric bikes travelling at 25 to 30mph along the canal towpath between Salterforth and Foulridge yesterday morning. Sounding horns to make walkers get out of there way and not slowing down at all. Later in the day, coming through Colne centre at 5.30pm there was a kids moto...

I was in attendance to provide transport not advice! Unfortunately the power steering has just failed on his car and its in the garage. It seems the damage is in his outer ear not the inner. He is too big in every way Stanley!

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS

The doctor he saw in the Urgent Treatment Centre thought that the infection was caused by a scratch in his ear. He was prescribed a more powerful, targeted antibiotic which will hopefully do the trick. There was a wait of over an hour to get it from the Outpatient Pharmacy so he will go to Burnley H...

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS

I learnt about the aqueduct when I was researching someone's family history. I first picked up her gt grandfather in the 1891 census living near Grasmere, obviously in some sort camp with a number of men described as 'navvies working on waterworks'.

All clear thanks Sue, we just got back 10 minutes ago. There were blizzard conditions here for a while and about an inch of slush on the roads when I set off back to Bradford. By Lothersdale it was sleet and torrential rain by the time I got to Crosshills. Its stopped now.
