Once again, still pertinent so bumped.

Meat and veggies X three for breakfast dinner and tea. A normal well fed day!

https://www.oneguyfrombarlick.co.uk/app.php/gallery/image/10449/medium As I have said before, I suspect many of these old images were done on a Sunday, there are so many people about and in this case children. But one man is stood in a shop doorway.... Could it be a weekday? I think it's before 190...

I shall be in the shed for at least an hour working on muck-shifting on my crankshafts. There is some swarf to go out of the door. As for the rest of the day, there is nothing on my social calender and apart from surprises I will spend it keeping dry and warm. At my age that's what suits me best!

Could that image possibly be AI generated?

Yesterday afternoon stayed dry but cold. At 20:00 it was calm, clearing and cold. Same first thing this morning and so far it hasn't changed. The glass has fallen to 1003mb and the forecast is for a day of sunshine and showers, the showers are due to start any time now. The wind starts in the west, ...

"pint sized loser". I like that, goes well with the typo "Rishi Sunk". See THIS defence by Hunt.... Jeremy Hunt has defended plans to slash civil service jobs to increase defence spending and Ukraine aid, during a surprise trip to Kyiv. The chancellor said cutting public service...

I have wondered why we don't provide a route in to stop the boats. I suppose that the government thinks that the migrants will have 'won'. Does that really matter when people are dying? See THIS depressingly all to familiar news. A teenage girl has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder afte...

This badly corroded object has been exposed to the weather on masonry for many years. The two left hand legs have broken off. Can you tell me what its original purpose was?

I have just managed to get this page up to reply after 15 minutes at least delay. This included 502 bad gateway and asking for my password. Deep Joy. I shall do my best but I forecast posts will be thin on the ground this morning.... Later at 03:40. Back to normal speed..... That didn't last long an...

Myth, Miracle, and Fact. I once loved a maid, a spot welder by trade She was fair as the Rowan in bloom And the bloom of her eye watched the blue moorland sky I wooed her from April to June On the day that we should have been married I went for a ramble instead For sooner than part from the mountain...

Well, the one person who would not be worried is Mr Wali! As it's cold there will be no problem in waiting for the wind to drop!

Would a slow down and 502 errors at 13:00 count as unusual hours?

Wendy is right. Gloria is getting the West Coast weather, we are getting the East Coast which is where it is still cold. You still need to wrap up warm in Barlick!

News just in that Frank Field has died aged 81.
A good man has passed. We need men and women like him badly.

Thanks for that Wendy.....

You're right about the temperature Sue, it's not summer yet! I am sick of hearing of near 20C in the South and even Scotland! I hope you get on better today than you think. https://www.oneguyfrombarlick.co.uk/app.php/gallery/image/28663/medium The first thing I did was make slugs of steel that fitte...

The last day of winding at Bancroft in 1979. The lady on the left is Betty ? and on the right, Judy Northage.
The end of an era...... We should not allow it to be forgotten.

Bumped again. Still vital information on nutrition.
Go out and find 'The Vitamin Murders: Who Killed Healthy Eating in Britain?' by James Fergusson (2007). A good overview of the subject.

Same again today. I thank god I don't get cravings beyond good meat and veggies!

They sound interesting. I am still on my AC12 binge!

Yesterday we had odd spatters of rain in the afternoon but by 20:00 it had settled down into dry overcast for the night. First thing this morning it was calm and clear with scattered cloud and full moon. It hasn't changed since. The glass is back a bit on 1018mb and falling. The forecast is for a su...

I shall be in the shed as usual carrying on with making 3 crankshafts for Stuart No. 9 Engines. Not sure after that but it looks like a dry and relatively pleasant day out there from the forecast so I think a walk could be on the cards.
