Almost the weekend![]()
Another job done whilst at the Faded Holiday Place. To add to resident DJ.
Destructor, weren't tha in the constructor side o'things?
You'll soon find out whose willing to work outside as well. Hard day, sat on yer backside in an office is harder on the mind than owt else.
Might build character, but an outside job that's also a dirty job...
We've black bins/blue bags, general waste. Green bag for clean, dry paper and cardboard(No coloured paper or glossy magazines), and if it gets wet, it's into general waste. Large white nylon bag, plastic bottles, but not milk containers or any other plastics. Green container/box for glass, another for tins. All to be washed before leaving out. Two brown plastic containers for food waste(to be in green plastic bags, fastened), one large one small. Small one is now too big for the green bags, which shrink each year.
And after all that, everything bar the glass and tins, gets thrown in the same heap at the local tips.
New vaccine, against what!!
You might nod off you mean...
You did the outside and got wet for yer sins...
Nice and tidy now, when's Toodles due next?
Or will a GC trip come before.
Here's hoping.Shingles....
Jab area is still a wee bit swollen but if it works..
This recycling lark is okay as long as it's not landfilled...
I remember those glass bins with slots for different-coloured glass, and there was just one big empty space inside.
For some reasons, the rubbish-burning building up here was known as the Destructor...
my dad worked in one in the mid to late 60s, I used to use the showers, it was a novelty
I was asked if the 6th wash was free..
Aye right...
Here's hoping.
Shoulder/upper arm?
Feeling any less queasy now.
Recycling can work, but putting the majority of it back together before disposal doesn't.
The last of the council owned ones have now disappeared from the streets. Thought the ones we got were faulty, now it seems you had similar.
Anything that went in to it never made it out.
Showers used water heated by the Destructor!
Nowt wrong with a shower, beats a tin bath in front of the fire...
You'd to pay!
Time to let yer hair down, get yer disco shoes and outfit outa the wardrobe and hit the dancefloor.The weekend is here.....
Party time![]()

Wots it gawpin atAs we'd say up here,
upper arm is gowpin...
achy, achy...
a ZINC-coated bath, a luxury we had..
our house had a loo big enough to have a party in, no bath for some reason..
I was a regular at the local baths, very regular...
No Mrs M was quoting the local car wash patter, pay for 5 and get the 6th free....
Wots it gawpin at
Not as achy as yesterday, today?
Remember it being used in front of a real fire back in the day.
We'd an internal toilet, none of this nipping outside malarky.
We'd be at one of the local ones, every Saturday morning. Now the nearest is another six miles away. Four of them gone.
She'll be claiming her free one!
I'd blame autocorrect if I could, but t'were me that typed it.gOwpin, nah gawpin...
Twas not an outside toilet..
that was my cousin a mile away...
It was dark in there..
a 60w light bulb if that....
the constant strong smell of bleach.....
There were no supremely soft bog tissue, no moist aloe vera tissues in those days.....
I'd blame autocorrect if I could, but t'were me that typed it.
T'weren't! Maybe they forgot to put the bath in...
A long way to go if caught short!
60W should have been strong enough, leaving some corners not illuminated to have yer wondering what were there.
Get high whilst using it, making you forget the other aromas.
Local newspaper instead?
Wouldn't call it a lovely smell. Lifeguard, can just about remember it. A load of newer fancy ones were coming on to the market.Lovely bleach, Lifeguard was another smell from my childhood..
I can see why folk were glad to move from rental properties to social housing with inside bathrooms and I remember one I stayed in had a fireplace in each bedroom as well...
the dock across from my original tenement house was where the bulk of the UK's unprocessed sugar got taken to local sugar refineries, there were regular banana boats, I've mentioned these before and police had to guard the warehouses in the evenings from a load of school kids up to no good....I've always said they are my favourite fruit (a ripe mango comes that near).
Young Toodles fair likes her vegetables, granny made cabbage and she was last seen emptying her plate..
Tootsie had her first piece of banana..
Did a test piece (2 of) articulated bunnies..
Did the two programmes I prepare (or 'slice') my downloaded files.
One was far quicker than the other but I have tweaked the settings of one and weighed the two pieces, the faster weighed 18 grams and didn't look as bright as the other which weighed 21 grams but it has an extra outside wall layer (3), hard to see, I'll take a photo tomorrow if I remember..
Still watching some bloke sailing canals......
Wouldn't call it a lovely smell. Lifeguard, can just about remember it. A load of newer fancy ones were coming on to the market.
Harpic's tagline was a bit like missen...
First house I were in had fireplaces, and often a fire in each in colder weather, in the two largest rooms. Inside toilet and bath, but we'd still end up in the bath in front of the fire.
More a case of who would have banana'o than a case of "who shall have the fishy'o when the boat comes in" back then.
Is that where the sugar rush started?
Pears were mine, with bananas a close second.
Fruit and veg, I've pretty much enjoyed most of were once grown on this island. Brought up on the humble spud.
How'd she take to her first piece?
These articulated items you print, are the joints free moving when printed or do they require "a bit of work" before articulation is achieved.
Think I've seen some of them, if the canals are in Britain. Watched an Irish TV series, where Guinness was taken by the waterways of Ireland, from Dublin to Limerick. Just as it used to be, many years ago. Not as much, but enough for the series. Had a couple of Garda onboard for part of the Grand Canal though.
