Golf course on part of it now.
It's had Barnum & Baileys, the second licence holder(Pilot) landed there. T'was also a zoo.

You sure you're from round these parts!

Ouch mate!

Yeah, that cutter is razor sharp but you still gotta put a fair bit of pressure on it to get through the spuds, as you can imagine it had a fair bit of force behind it when it slipped.

I can imagine mate, lucky you never had the thumb off.

I've been here since '71, the only zoo I was aware of was at Exley before WW1

I think the bone in my thumb stopped it, certainly felt like it.

Lucky for you that you had a bone in there to stop it going through.

Just had to call my lad down from his bedroom to put a dressing on my thumb,was cutting chips with one of these View attachment 144298 when the potato moved and the cutter skidded off and into my thumb. It felt like it had gone down to the bloody bone, I wouldn't mind but I only have partial use of that thumb after breaking my tendon a few years ago. I now have a very neat wavy gash in my thumb and it ruddy hurts
Maybe I should have posted this in the mundane news?????

you really only have yourself to blame.

this "cooking from scratch" malrky, its bad for your health I tell you.

(Hope the thumb is ok soon)

Pellon Lane, headed up. Clear Woodlesford and take a look over to your left. The old control tower still stands & can be seen once you clear the houses.

Does sort of explain the odd street names now though. Here since 71.

My own fault for wanting to make wrinkly chips, should have done steak cut chips instead.

I will make a point of looking next time I'm up around that way.
