Yesterday I acquired a face like a trod on chip when I had to burn 20 sheets of very nice 4mm exterior grade plywood that had gone mouldy, which i got for free and I was going to use to line my boats cabin with.

I've now got an oil drum full of ash , my neighbor isn't speaking to me anymore and claiming its illegal to have a bonfire, which is bolloux.

From t'internet:

"The law on domestic bonfires in England and Wales is very simple: there isn’t one; there is, however, a law against any subsequent nuisance that having one might cause. As the Government puts it:

You can’t get rid of household waste if it will cause pollution or harm people’s health. This includes burning it.

However, the legal principle is that any nuisance must usually happen on a regular basis to be considered so:

Your council can issue an ‘abatement notice’ if a neighbour’s bonfire is causing a nuisance. A bonfire must happen frequently to be considered a nuisance."

there's also sometimes byelaws governing garden fires.

From a UPS driver, there is post about him.

This lot.



A old needle tin, to me the contents are with out price.
The pins are perfect for Mini Me Lead glazing work. They fit the push pin and are just long enough to hold the lead cane.


Finally.

This.



I know what it is.
But I don't know who sent me this lot.

A worrying feeling.
Yes, TYA is a worried Vark.

My Hermes man has just left me with a box.
I, have not ordered anything, nor is work sending me items.
Mrs TYA nor is Mini Me buying me items.

But enough. Here is the box.


So, as it was addressed to me, no return address I opened it.



Wolf drill and some other Wolf items.

It can only go together one way

So I pit it together in that way,



A Wolf pillar drill.

Well that's not true.

It is a paper weight, the drill does not work.
Oh Bother I did not say.
