Hi Steve I am OK thankyou. Family stuff and ailing Father who is now living with us, make getting away difficult. I have little control of my diary these days. Hope all is well with you and your family and please say hello to the Lads for me if I am not at the next meet :)

Many years ago I was reading a book (possibly Treasure Island) Before setting off to sea the ship purchased a large stock of 100% guaranteed to work mosquito exterminaters. When they came to use them, the instuctions said to place the mosquito between the two blocks of wood supplied and...

Hi to Steve and all at lords wood. Haven't been for a while, family stuff dominating life at mo. Hope to come along. Some time soon. mike

+1 for just tempering the steel down a few points and grinding hard. I did some tests a few years back and some files are impossible/very difficult to harden. I would be interested to know what brand your Farriers Rasp was - I have found Bassoli to be good for knives. Did you like the...

This should be about opening up other areas for wild camping, which would relieve the pressure on Dartmoor! The amount spent on 'Private Keep Out' signs in the UK must exceed the GDP of some small countries. Round here, Dianas brother, (cant remember his name), is particularly hot on reminding...

What I learned from renting out a property: How many a-holes there are How little people give a sh#t about other people property How stupid people are How the court system works

Might pop into RTI on the way over. If anyone needs something green and a bit whiffy, let me know.

I am amazed they didn't prosecute the farmer - sort of thing they would do in this country - Like the guy who picked up all the litter in his street, put the bag out for the bin men and was fined for putting out non household waste!!

I took out prime by accident once (I am sure it is designed to trick you) Cancelled immediately and now I just use their free offers etc as much as possible. It is quite amazing how often they offer you free prime for a month or a week. Just accept such offers then immediately go to your...

I will not be coming - work has taken over this week! Have a good un :-)
