Well I never! I spied a double-decker chest tomb in Box on Saturday, the first of its kind that I've ever seen. To its right an early Ikea flat packed tomb that the buyer clearly couldn't be bothered to assemble 😉

This actually appeals to me...
Turn your smartphone into a classic telephone with this retro handset. Simply plug it into the Type-C port – and you’re ready to go.

I've not seen such a concentration of chest tombs in a long while. My photo does not do their concentration justice.
.
Clearly an affluent neighbourhood, who spent a lot of monies on preparing for their immortality to be written in stone.

From where I'm sat it sounds like the north Swindon militia have just launched an artillery barrage upon Cricklade, just two miles to the north. I imagine that in the early hours there will be a ground offensive...
Stay tuned

November & so far I've not felt the need to switch on the heating, long may this continue. The joy of under floor heating? By that I mean the joy of having flats below with their heating on. Come on downstairs crank it up to 11.

Earlier this month I revisited this place for the first time in a long, long time. A very distinctive shell keep sat on an earlier ring work.
I appear to have happened upon one of the most important late Saxon/Early Norman churches in Oxfordshire.

A couple of photos taken when I ventured where I probably shouldn't have ventured, especially not alone on a dull & dank day - one slip...
I do like this-the best fake postcard I've seen in a while; c1898 they say.
Even at the time no one would have believed it to be so as 'with infinite complacency men went to and fro over this globe about their little affairs, serene in their assurance of their empire over matter'

Currently listening to this. What to say? I always loved his work & to see his name on a remix meant that you were in for a treat. #WilliamOrbit

Introducing ‘Frankenbike’ As I'm waiting on parts to fix my broken rear wheel I've cobbled this together.
Replaced the rear wheel with my old Cosmic Carbone & added the cassette from my broken wheel.
Only tyre I could find for the rear was a 23c, the front is 28c Ho Hum not ideal

1/2 Tonight I've been mostly trying to ask why @thameswater want to bill me on what they think my usage is rather than what I actually use as a single person living in a flat - my meter reading today seems to be of no consequence.

2/2 It was a thoroughly annoying experience to say the least @thameswater The sooner you're nationalized the better. £44/month for me in a flat? I used to pay £20/month on similar usage solo in a three bed house with a garden - which I didn't water...
