Today I acquired...........

[Dieselman 63]

In the wee small hours of the morning I acquired a granite set.

It's all frosty because I came home and stuck it in the freezer, obviously.

In my first year I disappeared many a time whilst heavily inebriated... And returned with random items, including (on different occasions) fish and chips, a floor to ceiling mirror, a 10kg sack of flour, and the piece de resistance, a mini oven that had been dumped in a ditch. That last one ended its days flying off the top of a seven storey building - I was passed out in a bush, some other group stole my 'treasure'!

cant beat gerry cans(PC?) I have two normal size and one smaller modern one which is handy as its light weight when full.

My dad used to work at a garage as a filler boy, said the plastic ones were forbidden, only metal containers were allowed, so he's dead pleased I've bought this!

And returned with random items

I remember when the top of a Belisha Beacon [remember those?] followed someone home......and, no it wasn't me......

......and, no it wasn't me......

Of course it wasn't,

 

[Dieselman 63]

Of course it wasn't,

Probably mistook it for the mythical, fabled sunshine he'd read about but never seen, as it's always raining in Scotland!

Someone in the flat opposite acquired (God only knows where) two hundred rubber ducks the other day, I don't know how I'm gonna top that.

Had to swing via home today, needed to get some bits for a job.

Meant to be a fly in, grab the test kit I need and fly out.



Well, got through the door and tripped over this.

A few minutes ago got a text;

“Hi TYA, dropped a present through the letter box, hope you like.”




Another Rail way sleeper tie bolt, marked with "GWR"

I thin I will donate this to a local pub or local town information office.

Going to treat it to a bath, or leave 'as is'? And we assume you know who the 'dropper off'er was?

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

@slim_boy_fat

It will be dropped into a bath of citric acid, cleaned up and then I will decide it's future.


I do now who doped it of, I will be nice to him when I next see him.
