  1. I'd been looking for a drop-leaf table for a while, to save space in our galley kitchen/diner.

    Two days ago, a neighbour advertised one on a local socmed page. It was a bit pre-loved, but fitted the bill; and the price was fair*.

    I got it home, then carefully sanded the top to remove the old varnish.

    I didn't want to revarnish the table, so mixed up some beeswax & coconut oil as a simple polish.

    I think I won...

    * Less than I expected! #Yorkshireman

  6. A #Yorkshireman working on a #NorthSea #oilrig rescued an #owl that had been blown nearly 300km off course by #StormAmy - he fed her for a few days and she was collected by a #wildlife sanctuary in #Shetland , checked over by #vets and released

    (it is impressive the lad was able to catch an owl and even had all the kit ready to look after her!)

  11. A #Yorkshireman got #drunk a few years back and ordered a >10m tall inflatable #Santa by accident - this has become so popular in the village he lives in (just outside #York) that he has raised a lot of money for #charity by exhibiting it 😁 (equally impressive that its stayed put with all the weather and not fouled the Openreach cables)

  16. T - Minus 6 days and counting until I set foot in the UK again. 🛫🇺🇲🇬🇧🛬

    8 days in Wales visiting my folks while we collect wifey's UK Visa to allow us to permanently move back. 20 years in the USA coming to an end. 🍻. Once trip is over the house in NC goes on the sale 🥳

    Should I bring an HT - not sure about repeaters near Garnant. I could bring the Open spot and 878 I suppose. I'll check repeater lists and program them in if there are any local.
