    What? Like the way all those iron railings ended up dumped in the sea?
    Not just London maybe. The railings along the churchyard in my local town were removed during the war too. They cut the remains down further a few years ago as bit hazardous, line of short spikes in concrete.

    That Great Wen site has some interesting stuff.

      Tea: M&S chunky breaded haddock (last chunk), orange segments and custard, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

      Had the fried potato again, not as good as last Friday's but acceptable enough (different spuds I suspect).

      Twas all over the country, they took the railings down around here too, so they might have ended up in the Severn.

      Though with all the iron & steel works around here they could have loaded them all in the blast furnaces.

        Even ClientCo was telling staff to not use the VPN for things like Teams and to only use it when they need to access stuff on ClientCo's network.
        Back in the day one used a download manager.

        For those inneresting sites.

            I have been watching The Intruder (2019) - IMDb .

            Only interrupted by having to do some w*r*.

            Waitiag for dinner now. Vegetable curry.

              Thought there was someone knocking on the door.

              Turned out to be a jackdaw knocking seven bells out of something on the lean-to troughing.

                Wouldn’t summer be the one-third, 4.5 Tog bit? Definitely a sign of Spring, though

                The bed has now been re-made, so I don’t end up realising I still haven’t done it when I go to crash out tonight

                  That always catches me out. Just ready to collapse and, darn it!

                    dinner was a toasted cheese and ham sarny.
                    serrano ham and gruyere cheese with thinly sliced wally.

                    very tasty indeed.

                    and a nice chablis.

                    got to keep one's strength up for all these incantations, after all.

                      I hate it when I try to go to bed and realize I have to do stuff when tired....
