Telling the truth, but telling it bent. Ranty, hyperactive, in love with everything. Local pariah, occasional blogger, amateur historian and lover of music, geeky things, old tech and the outdoors.
Post a perfect album from the 90's that isn't nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, or alice in chains.

The barley is also ready to harvest - I hate the feel of it. Scratchy. But good for beer and malt! #weepickle
No question this year if the wheat will be dry enough to harvest! #weepickle
Had to be done. Medicinal for the troubled heroine… #weepickle #micropickle
Nice to see the honeysuckle flowers in the hedgerows. The Victorians were obsessed by this flower which they called Woodbine, possibly because the old queen was fond of it. It’s a lovely flower with a wonderful scent! #weepickle #micropickle
Good to see the liquorice harvest is going well #weepickle #micropickle
This is another strange huge house! Clifton hall. These two sides or wings were built with a big posh bit to go in the middle to join them up. But it was never built. How does that even happen? #weepickle #micropickle
‘What’s that, Bob?’ ‘That’s the Bearded Theory festival packing up. This is the field in Staffordshire where Aardvark, cybergandalf and top dj bloke Paul Taylor left an important part of his brain over the weekend.’ ‘Oh. Right.’ #weepickle #micropickle
Micro wanted to see more masts. This has boggled his mind. #weepickle #micropickle
Warning: African elephants- well, we are near Twycross Zoo! #weepickle #micropickle
We’re out. It’s a wee bit warm. Have Pickle, Micro, Beaker and unusually, Aunty. Enough fluids to top up the Wyrley and Essington. Lots of insects today. We’re getting a lot of accidental protein… #weepickle
Take two pieces of wood to fit in your vice. One must be thinner than your dowels. Pin or glue them so they have an offset equal to the length you need Line cup uncut dowels along the shelf and clamp. Use tenon or suitable fine tooth saw cut along upper piece
We do have the Pie Factory - a Black Country institution in Tipton
Also: A wildcard. A venerable old-school industrial three-phase plug, not at all lethal as designed with a cover on a metal chain that if installed badly, dangled over the pins. Dyin out, but still around
I'll see you your DIN-dong and raise you this fine USB to optical I use with instrumentation still (first used around 1997)
Sure thing, of course they did Grandma. And did the audience clap? They'll also have the experience of being able to choose to listen to a huge amount of music free before splashing out on it and finding out it was utter shite
bearing is 1 assembly extent of the yellow line, yes? Purple dot appears to be a rubber or similar cushioning anti vibration layer The outer shell ring has a split at the red arrow (note the rubber kinked into the gap) Bearing and ring seem to stand proud of gear Squeeze at opp points 90 from split
