    Let's talk axes.

    I want a short one to put in the disco, along with the arborist battery driven chainsaw.

    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    When I did my apprenticeship in the Navy, part of it was Blacksmithing. But I didn't make this, more is the pity.

    But I did make plenty of these, and heat treated them. They were the days, under the critical eye of Mr Smith [ yes really] to the melody of " get the bastard hot son, get it hot!!"

    Tiffie. Never a stoker. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    Our apprentice system was based on the RN one. Based at Quakers hill, on the site of the old Schofields air base, we did a four year apprenticeship. from the age of 15. A video of the job, the first ship in it is of the Vampire, my first sea posting. A long, long time ago.
