sp1 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Don't fairs usually have one of those dartboard stalls - get a certain score to win a prize? A 4mm scale dartboard??????

Jaz Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Is anyone going to Spalding Show next weekend? Edward...don't call me Eddie.......always puts on a good show. Plus with the shops all nearby .....ie 2 mins walk.....M+S, Romans, Klass, Thorntons, Subway, Cotton Traders, etc etc at Springfields shopping. The main shop will have LOADS of Xmas decorations.....it is easy to con the wife into looking at the shops while you sneak off to the show...and free parking. There is a pub lunch available or Frankie and Bennys, coffee shop......oh and a shoe shop or too.............. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcredfer Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 A while ago you wondered what the inside of the Salisbury Market Square was like ....... you wouldn't believe how the car was parked ..... definitely Mrs Malaprop Maladjusted ..... it is a wonder I didn't get my "collar felt" ............... the things I do for model trains ... The overall view without the Market Traders ........... Salisbury Market Sq 1 by JulianR 2013, on Flickr Closer to the left .........

jcredfer Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 The camera is good ...... even allows manual focus, [with a magnified selection of the screen while you twiddle the lens] .................. like most things, the only problem is the "driver" .... Thanks for the effort, hope the camera is proving a good buy.... can you sneak into the same spot when the market is open???? I had better try for the Tuesday Market .......... Also it might be an idea to take the Bus ...... if you look in the Driver's Door Mirror, in the first picture ..... you can se a car trying to weave around the rear of my car, sticking out into the road .... the busses didn't like it too much either!! ....................

Kal Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 Jazz, have you heard from Neil (Anotheran) lately or have I missed a holiday or work commitment post? Kind regards, Jock. He was logged on yesterday, according to his profile. Just not posting. I have times that i prefer to read then write, so maybe he is feeling the same.

Jaz Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Sometimes it isn’t the inhabitants that decide what exists ….. Here is a little village, with only a few inhabitants … Castle Coombe 3 by JulianR 2013, on Flickr Picture, below, with one Pub behind and another in sight on the left of the picture …… you don’t get many places with 2 Pubs and only a couple of dozen houses …… A place familiar to Kal & Jaz ..... if they can remember after visiting the hostelries ............ the one on the left of the picture used to have the best Home-made hot Pork Pies EVER! .... Castle Coombe 2 by JulianR 2013, on Flickr Visitors … that’s the reason why ……...... all because of a film called Dr Doolittle ... Came out of the house one day ….. Old Courthouse 1 by JulianR 2013, on Flickr ……… turned left out of the black door there and walked down the street ….. there were 2 nice old American ladies just in front “Gee Winifred, these places look just so beautiful. Why don’t we have any places like this back home?” ….. Couldn’t resist, I’m afraid ……. “That, Madam, would be because Americans simply haven't been around for long enough.” …….. I know this is now moved on.....but I forgot to mention....THe church at castle coombe is so old it has a crusader buried there, and on the side has pictures of the work his children did, a really lovely place to visit, the castle is gone, the stone not, reused to build many of this homes.....a lovely day out. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcredfer Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I have mentioned this before .................... eerr ............... huum ....... elsewhere .............. But it is worth another turn ................. I know this is now moved on.....but I forgot to mention....THe church at castle coombe is so old it has a crusader buried there, and on the side has pictures of the work his children did, a really lovely place to visit, the castle is gone, the stone not, reused to build many of this homes.....a lovely day out. The Vicar at around the time I was there was a bit of an old "Lad" ............ He used to wander round the Church when the tourists were there [particularly those who thought they were the first civilisation on the other side of the pond, as they were well caught up in the ancient things, which pre-date USA] .............. he would announce Sir Walter de Dunstanville to the visitors and point out that - "the poor old fella died twice ............. because his crossed legs meant that he died far from home, on a second Crusade and his sword laid along his body with his hands holding the hilt meant he also died while in combat" ................... it is surprising how many took the words quite literally ..... ..... amazing what circumstances - with a bit of ancient stonework and a straight faced, posh spoken, English Vicar, can do to stop people working out the facts ..... .... "Goodness Wilma, just imagine that - died twice - and so far from home too ... how sad is that eh " - in hushed tones as they left to consider such an awful ending to a Noble Man ....... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) I needed to paint some tarp....and luckily remembered CW&R had had a go (page 11 of A New Start) ...
