There's nothing quite as funny as watching a drunk in motion. Look at this lot - completely withered!

...........goodbye Brian.
Today, Lyns
"little" brother Brian went to a better place after a short
illness. In the 'fifties - as now -
girls had dolls but Lyn had the real thing. Her mother Pauline had her hands
full with a poorly husband, Lyn's
younger sister and brothers, Pat, Trevor and Brian of course, work, and a house to keep, so Lyn
became little Brian's surrogate mother.
Intelligent, clever and sociable, "BJ" will be
sadly missed by all who enjoyed his company.
We should take comfort in knowing that he has gone to a
place where his trade will place him in the company of the best known carpenter
of all - Brian was also a "chippie".

Alba 1A shaper restoration project
Following the relocation of my workshop to a larger building
I found the additional space allowed for the install of a machine which will
greatly enhance my machining capabilities.
Over the next two months I choked over white spirit fumes,
plastered myself with car body filler and generally splattered paint everywhere.
Here she is with her "makeup" applied and finally transformed from
mucky little trollop to English rose. I quite fancy her now!
I had already got a tool holder I wanted to use on her but
it was to thick to fit so this was going to be an ideal first job for her and a
challenge as well as the holder was diamond hard. I machined the required
amount from one side then turned it over to do the other. She may be a lady but she packs an impressive punch seen here:-
