thanks spits a thoughtful provokateur - never did like the SG’s but if this is their new look then very smooth; very smooth!
oh dear jem has been ‘heavy thinking’ does that come from over consumption of heavy water mixed with guiness perhaps?
evolution all that darwin crap - jem don’t ya remember ya three hail marys - wez woz made in de image of the great creator - de smooth operator as someone once sang.
we started with the perfect creature - man then woman MADE from man - how perfect could that be - then they went and messed it all up freckin about in de garden - bit like you freckin about in ya garden shed - mark my words jem nothing good will come of it - do you have a key for your shed? and do you always take it in with you when you enter ? - otherwise chaos may ensue. nod nod winki wink know what I 'm saying here. ??
I was gonna tell ya a story of my sleepin habits but you’ve got me all distressed and bamboozled with all that mumbo jumbo - I’ll have to lie down and take a bex!
Best lock ya shed Jem, or, one day, Gummy and me might decide to make peaceful entry, and, I can’t promise that I might feel the need to create an inventory, I just hope there are no Sweet Pies in there!!!
vicars daughters - sailors - peaceful entries come to mind?
Nah Gumby, Bailiffs.
Good Morning Possums.
A new day is here.
Ah the old Adam and Eve story, yes everything was going great until God decided Adam needed a companion, it all went downhill after that.
The shed is never locked while I’m working in there Spitty, shut but not locked, there is a do not disturb sign on the door knob, the family can reach me by walkie talkie should there be any urgent needs which require my attention.
I’m finished now till Tuesday and have hung up my saw frame as you can see here. I have just finished my lovely Sunday dinner, cooked with tender love and care by my beloved wife, and I’ll be heading out shortly to walk my dog in the park and then in for creamy pint of Guinness on the way home, as Jackie Gleeson used to say “How sweet it is” 
looks a bit untidy to me??
Hello Scribblers, been to the Large Model Association static display at the British Motor Heritage Museum today, don’t seem a year since last there, Its normally £14.00 entry fee, but because we are members of the BMFA, it cost just £6.00 each, and you get access to the whole of the Museum, well worth a visit.
You cheeky devil!
Glad you had a lovely day Spitty.![]()
Any pics?![]()
Sounds like a good day out Spitty, I would enjoy that.
looks a bit untidy to me?? (Quote Gumbud)
Agreed and thank you for the compliment Gummy. :-D;-)
Of course it’s untidy, it’s a shed! and a man’s shed at that, I wouldn’t have it any other way, that’s the part where I work, the rest of it is piled with junk especially where I do the polishing. A clean tidy shed is an unproductive shed, it’s a case of the end result justifies the means. You’d want to see some of the “Workshops” I worked in over the years, and all owned by wealthy people.
The leather skin hanging under the bench is to collect the ‘Lemel’ which means the filings of precious metals, when I’ve collected the equivalent of a jam jar full of these filings I parcel them up securely and send them off by registered post to Hatton Garden where they are refined and I receive a decent cheque for the extracted contents, a nice little side earner.
I visited the refinery back in the 1980’s, a fascinating process and all done with various acids.
I wonder how RJ is doing, I hope he’s OK.
I still can’t get over the marvels of the Limpet. Would you believe the little fella has teeth on a conveyor belt system? when one set wears out another set just slot in! His body is making teeth all the time so he never goes gummy, wouldn’t it be great if genetic engineering could harness that trick for humans?
I was talking to one of the curators and he said, the museum is given the first and last of the production runs of Rover and Jaguar models, but, they have to pay £1.00 for them, to avoid some sort of taxation. Also, they always acquire the most highly specified models, so that future restorers have a complete reference point, rather than just photos etc.
I have a short video, of the less populated area, I don’t like poncing about with a camera in highly populated areas, it may make folk feel uncomfortable.
There was a warning on the way in that some sort of commercial video was being made, don’t know if it was for the tele.
Oh, it might be.![]()
Good Night Possums. X
wow wow and wow again - that was magic SP - not a tear left in the house - what a loss to the music world xx
