And yes, I do need to get out more.

Harris's started up in Calne Wiltshire in 1770. It's a shame that they got rid of everything to do with the company in Calne when they moved the business up north.

Morning.
It was raining here . It seems to have stopped for a while . It's a good job I got this month's ride in yesterday .
My job for today is to put away all of the toys that are needed by a 3 year old . SWMBO told me . Scalextric , 2 large boxes of Duplo, box of toy cars, toy garage , a box of toy shopping . Whilst he was playing with those we had to have CBeebies on !

There were some German scammers that used to send me an invitation for our little company to be included in an 'international trade directory' . Their pitch was quite convincing but, buried deep in the small print was an annual fee of 800 euros, payable after you sent your details. I cut up a few envelope sized pieces of 18mm MDF on the table saw and put one in the pre-addressed reply envelope with a brief two word message. I figured it might cost them a bit in excess postal charges.

Ah MDF that’ll be the Muddy Dirty Fammers

It's still dry here, we even had some sun. I think we'll catch up with Christoph soon though.

 

[Ming the Merciless]

It’s windy here, someone has been on the beans

 

[Illaveago]

I've been told off !
"The Duplo doesn't live it the loft ! "
! ?
"It lives under the stairs ! "
I thought I got it out of the loft !

 

[Oldhippy]

Well that's you told! On the naughty step for you.
