Curiosity drove me recently to check out the old homestead , site of the oldsman's dream . Damp and frankly unfit for habitation. A place of misery , violence and resentment. A Celtic Ozimandias tale

So not sure what this says about my colleagues or me . One brought a scrap piece of a bugle for me " as fairy sure you can use it in your boat furniture design" My 1st idea lands 20 seconds later.

😁

Swallowing Irn Bru ,looking up at this .

This is the view from my office window today . Great to sit on the bow as boat owner steered and I worked the ropes through the locks

Mine appears to have behaved itself since I was presented with it 10 months ago .

1973 / 1979 pursuant of the old man's dreams we lived in this . Refined cold ( and indeed damp )

Given my history as a pin cushion post Leukemia I have had to explain bloods need to be drawn from the back of my hand, never good .
So yes you have my full sympathy as it really hurts . Ralph says hi

Haven't seen the Wallace and Gromit however as a narrow boat dwellers this image causes concern . The absence of " sacrifice annodes " under the water line would greatly increase the risk of plat thining from rust .
