Similar to tiles I had around my old Victorian fireplace

Anyone know what the tiles are in the pic, they are in a 1934 boat thats getting scrapped seams a shame to bin them I was going to try n save them along with some other stuff. Its mostly teak with the owners add on poor carpentry.. One for...

Yes it is a worry in a wooded area and its terrible seeing what happens when there is a fire. My favourite part of France is Landes department and it has a huge amount of pine forest, I worry about what would happen if there was a fire there...

Morning All. :D R.Knee & Hip are complaining and that is now throwing the back into spasm. Grrrr... :( To make matters worse I put the bins out, hobbled round to the petrol station for a paper and found I had brought an old pound coin instead...

I hain't listened to it so no idea of its originality, but it was a hoot at the time!! 🤣 🤣

Ah why thank you kind sir, I do believe one is not familiar with that recording..

Yes thats a splendid idea...
