:offtopic: sorry guys

(btw what's a sark?)[/QUOTE]

A linen shirt, in this case a ladies under chemise......well wool's a bit scratchy under a corset..... and the C16th ones are going to leave us with the original 'heaving bosoms' as we tear around the castle after schoolkids, so the linen'll be cooler I hope. I'm not a re-enactor....just that the PTB want me in appropriate costume for work; you make costumes too, though?

I didnt notice either but was house sitting (full of cats and no internet!) as my mums away on holiday - lucky monkey.

But I did have a go at bow drilling and later sharpen my knives.. :eek:):

Aaahhh right! :super: Well it all sounds much cooler than sitting around trying to figure out how to reduce the server load (especially the ginger nuts! :eek:):) :biggthump

Reckoned the less people trying to frazz up the network the better :) My sons work in sys admin and network security, so I kept out of the way for a bit.
The ginger nuts is a great recipe. The dough can be made up, put into a poly bag and taken with you when you're going out. Tear off little lumps and cook over a shovel/frying pan/hot stone and you've got biccies to go with the tea :lol: Keeps for days if it's cool, and can be made up in advance and frozen for months......time for a cuppa, I've talked me into it now, maybe dip some in chocolate??? The cinnamon ones aren't half bad either.
