This 'Short' from the Toob, apart from the bloop...

See how it 'builds' layer by layer...

Fish? Were the trawlers coming into the fading holiday resort pier and getting awfy fresh fish and clams....
fish lorry would turn up mon - fri..
Just as well I was good at gutting and preparing,
a childhood of fishing off the docks and later shores until the Clyde fish stocks literally died...
I lived on cod as a yunc until I got married....
it was my get away....
Veg?
find most of it grown for looks and quantity now

and some is pretty tasteless,
supermarket displays show that now,
wonky veg is a way of getting rid of the misshapen stuff,
we use a greengrocer(?) whose veg looks and tastes good..
probably still coming from mass producers, their carrots though make a damn good pot of loup de loup..

I have found (I hope) a leak in the piping under the sink. I dried everything off last night and noticed a drip on the outside tap pipe connection, so I switched that off. I dried everything, and it has stayed dry since. Fingers crossed.

I know it's layer on layer, just wondering how they get something to print in mid-air with no support.

You've ate the goldfish!!
Were you also the "buyer", along with being the cleaner. I'd a bit further than yerssen to get to the sea. Nearby trout farm where we'd cast over the brook, public footpath, hoping we'd catch something before being caught.
Grow gills as a byproduct of eating so much fish...

What you don't see, or didn't until "wonky veg" became fashionable, were the "mis-shapes and less than perfect looking ones. Who'd buy spuds these days if you only got two or three in a 1lb bag? The graders on the machines keep the oversized ones away from the shelves. It were two bad summers that saw the introduction/creation of the wonky veg market. Them or very little else. Or go down the organic road and pay for veg that often had the dirt put back on after being checked.
And you paid for that dirt, included in the weight.
Tomatoes were one thing we got by the box, for nowt on holiday. A neighbour worked at one of the largest greenhouse growing operation in europe. He'd often bring ones that were the size of turnips up. Completely tasteless, but they looked good.
Grown all year round, as with most these days. No waiting until they're in season anymore.
This "damn good pot of loup de loup", do you eat it upside down?

Have you no water now then, or have you fixed the problem this morning.

Water is working, just that drip when offshoot to outside tap is opened, now closed.

Not a fan of trout now or farmed salmon..
you can even choose their flesh colour by the pellet you feed them with.. allegedly.

right..
this is what I use to sit over the speaker grid of radio to amplify and 'push' the sound towards me, it works well.
Almost 1 3/4 inches high in the middle..
printed as shown...

Mrs M say right hand looks whiter, I think left BUT maybe the tint on my gregorys are the reason for this.

Left is shiny white but the right is more a matt finish.
Two different preparation programs..
Right hand was much faster to print and is 2 gm lighter..
but the left is the one that has a 3 strand wall , right is 2 strand...

Water, very important ingredient in cuppa's.
Leak bad enough for a plumber to be needed? Maybe a result of the recent cold nights.

This one wasn't on the same scale as modern fish farms. Used to stock a pond that he charged for entry to, and a fishing club had competitions there. The pond were an old mill pond for the waterwheels a wee while ago.
Saw a program on't telly about modern salmon farms, where that piece were mentioned. But they didn't do it there...

What radio is used on?

I find myself in agreement with Mrs Mhor. May be the matt finish, I don't know.
