Never used Japanese Oak, but I believe it is very pale. Could it be Japanese Oak? And Ash smells to me like the ash-pan from a 1940's coal fire. Hence the name? :mrgreen: John (hammer)

What sawdust Sammy? I just told you... I did some tidying! :lol: :lol: :lol: Thanks Sam. Much appreciated. John (hammer)

It's been a few years since I cut a substantial amount of DT joints. Despite the time I have been woodworking, I know I would now need to cut a few practice joints to 'get my hand-in' so to speak. Hopefully it wouldn't take long to reawaken the muscle memory or whatever it's called! My legs...

I would probably enjoy Jennings. I used to be a great fan of the 'Red Circle School' stories in the Hotspur, during the nineteen-fifties. The main character, I seem to recall, was the school captain, A.P.E. Carew! Days of innocence and not an idea of what was to come! John (hammer)

Ah Well! l fear I was a 'Just William' fan! Never got waylaid by Jennings. Did I miss anything John? :mrgreen: Maybe it's not too late to catch back on this series? John (hammer)

Cheers Bob, Yes I have found plenty of info on Gibbons. My small collection is a bit specialised I reckon, so I hoped to find a decent forum that might be more applicable! I'll keep searching ! Thanks again John (hammer)

I must be getting old John. I don't get the 'joke'? John (hammer)

Hi folks, I recently unearthed my stamp collection from about 20 years ago. I thought I had disposed of it! There isn't much of worth in there, but I am interested in George V stamps from Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika. I also like the George V stamps from GB. Mainly I need a good forum, and a...

ParcelFARCE! EOS! John :evil:

Still using my 90s Elus . I sold one of my 177e-s, something I now regret. Replaced it with a Festool 1410. It's a minefield these days to find a good router, unless you pay good money.; and even then you have to have fingers crossed. John (hammer)

The words 'shot' 'foot' and 'in' spring to mind. I am going to change from Virgin too. And to heck with people who have my email address. I already have BT for phone, BB and TV, so no problem. I was going to stop BT as it was £50.00 monthly against Virgin £34.00, but a ten pounds hike just for...

It's my guess that windows were probably called wind holes originally? :mrgreen: John (hammer)

Almost unbelievable. Amazon doesn't have this book! I found a supplier though! They will be thinking I've gone mad this month for orders!

There's lots to learn about NATO that certain people don't want us to know!

Yes Jacob. There's Desperate Dan too! Seriously, a staircase of any sort has an inherent risk, but given my vertigo... No thanks. John (hammer)

Big Pharma.. Nail on the head there! Truth is they don't want a cure for things they can manage with drugs. I wonder how much insulin is costing the NHS? I am in the Midlands TN. Long way from Exeketer! But I just tell the Doc I eat the right foods, to explain weight loss. I think he knows...

Thanks Dibs. I just put some go-faster stripes on my walking frame! John :)

I would say so Mike. The piece I laid was like a Nan (?) Bread; but I flattened it eventually!
