Just don't lose that "key" from that keyway slot. They'll probably cost an arm and a leg to get hold off, if available.

I'll be careful when taking it apart

Soak it in water then to soften the fibres?

The WD40 has done a good job on that.

In my experience, Norfolk miles are definitely longer.

Ah! Must be the mountains .

 

[Illaveago]

I knew that at one time. Long time ago tho'.

I can remember old exercise books used to have tables of all weights and measurements on the back covers.

 

[Illaveago]

Especially on straight roads into a headwind. We have those in Cambridgeshire too.

Hedgerows do help to cut down the wind on the lanes around here .

Miles have been ridden. Ice cream has been eaten. An undisturbed snooze on the settee has been had..
All in all, a lovely day so far!

Ah! I see that you are using your bike to show how big your ice cream is .

We still have books of tables for carpentry, thankfully we don't have to mess about with two systems of measurement though.

Hectares are not a recognised unit. But it was always in acres(Irish or English).

Didn't he have a house ?

I saw a slide rule yesterday in an antique shop. My childhood is officially antique it seems.

Morning.
I had to take a break from chatting to do some washing up . I also went out and fed the birds . I noticed that our trees and bushes have gone mad this year and will have to cut them back next month .
On my way back indoors I spotted a Lesser Spotted Woodpecker in our garden, it was near our apple tree .

They'd swell as they soaked. The shaft spinning in use is keeping them dry, but also getting too warm.

Still does, at the top end of a now 8.4723 acre(Irish) field.
