What’s been happening recently and what am I going to write about soon?
New PC and Home Office
I now after a few weeks waiting on the monitors have a new and long over due Home office setup, complete with new PC. So all you geeks check back for, details, photos and opinions on it all.
Made a bow Drill
For all you aspiring Ray Mears’s I have recently completed making a bow drill. For those of you who don’t know what I am talking about, it’s a device for making fire using friction. It has been road tested but has yet to produce an ember. Anyway it too will get a post of its own. Incidently the reason or one of the reasons for my lack of writing (what do you mean continued lack of writing?) ( who said I hardly wrote anyway?) was a wee injury I picked up, playing with sharp knifes! I managed to lacerate my finger while whittling the bow of the bow drill, requiring some minor plastic surgey. I ‘ll cover it all in a post, maybe with some photos, but nothing too gory, don’t worry.
Other things that have happened that I won’t be writing about further

- Water mains repaired by said men on second attempt
