12:49 am	Not enought time in a day. Went over to Stu's house today after leaving Barbies house. Barbie again has had one of her schitzo power control moments at Nash's Garden. I told her Wednesday not to touch or cut the long stem of next years Blackberry crop off . It was getting so long that I decided to to Force a bamboo cane into the ground and extend it with another and tie the two together with string to make it higher. I then tied the stem of next years crop to it. That day she gave me another load of defying against common sense crap because she is just like me father and thrives on creating an argument which will give themselves more power mentaly over me.She's a psychic vampire I tell you and complained that Wednesday just gone that she kept catching herself on it when she walk past and that it hurt. What the stupid argument and power seeking old woman failed to realise before she opened her mouth was that this Blackberry is a totaly thornless variety. Again she has achieved nothing in doing what she has done. It wont be the first time she has done this. One year while I was over in Ireland she done the same and cut the next years growth off. At the end of the day barbie is a mouthy old coward and prefers to tamper with not only Natures course by my work behind my back. What she failed to realise was the fact that my Stihl petrol Hedgetrimmer was in the back room under the table . and For five or ten minutes I felt like firing it up and completely leveling the whole garden and ending our relationship. But again I have broken to weakness as I have very very few people that I know personaly in this world. Rex is 89 and wont last indefinately. Barbie is the same age as me mother and a Biggoted Methodist Christian widow , and we know how dangerous religion can be. In my opinion it seems to swell peoples ego's badly and they thus look down on you like your some inferior being. Sturt however tonight that I saw is more like a Brother than a cousin , as I have know him for ever and when we were much younger we would alternate visits to eachothers houses at the weekend in the mid to late 1980's. Stuart now is an In the box every day guy with a Job , a car and a job that pays him just £200 a month too less for him to be able to have a comfortable life. Not to mention a certain amount of debt that he is hoping to sort out in the next two years. Stuarts Father died back in 2001. And due to me and my Father not getting on exactly rosy because he is just like barbie a control freak and seeker of excuses to have an argument. I decided years ago that I regard Stuart as the new head of our side of the family the Moore's. I have a great respect for my Brick 6 ft 4 brick Wall , after all thats why he has the oversize Big cuppa mug in my flat. Anyway enough of my life that makes me want to shut myself out of family life and become an inward turning moaner , lonely , neglected , colourfull and eccentric recluse. ------------------------------- I will be picked up by Stuart tommorow Morn about 9.00am so we can get Brekkie at Gary's snack shack. Then it will be over to the plot to at least look at it even if we dont do anything. Saturday afternoon we are going down to Ken's Caravan at Winchelsea and spending the night there. As were going to the Goodwood Festival of Speed sunday and I wont be anywhere near my compi on Sunday , come to think of it I wont be any where near it Saturday. ------------------------------- Oh did I happen to mention my Mumsy is a chronic moaner as bad as me , Cant was up , cook without burning or leaving the gas on , or stop herself from breaking something everytime she comes round. Basically an unintentional interfearer. ------------------------------- On better news I had to Collect another big clump of Stinging Nettles stems early this morning say 00.00 Friday. The Tennison Handley Peacocks are getting through it a lot quicker now , especialy the ones that were once very small communities of many that where gathered after cutting their silken webs off by the stem underneath. The Tennison handley peacocks are now starting to Pupate and get ready for pupation and are hanging themselves from the top of the converted IKEA ( Ingo ) glass cabinet. Also hanging from the glass shelf partition that I left just below half way down the glass cabinet. Where I have further more glass milk bottles filled with water and more bunches of Stinging nettles. So hopefully the Tennison handley's will be ok for Nettles for the next day and a half while I am away. __________ The Harrington country Painted ladies of which I have 11 in total. The first three were found eating Borage of all plants , and this set me looking for more of which I found on Thistle later alongside Ding a ling link not far from Harrington rd Tram stop. Four of the Harrington Country pk Painted ladies have allready pupated and with new thistle spigs for the rest of the catterpillars that more than likely would have been reduced to nothing by the time I get back from Goodwood. I hope to have a few more PL pupae and just a couple of Catterpillars that may need new thistle sprigs. The Tennison Handley peacocks are now starting to pupate or set up to it at a good rate now , and shed their catterpillar skin to be a soft bodied bright lime green , of which soon harden. Fantastic news indeed. This huge haul of Tennison handley Peacocks I gathered. NOT ONE as yet has succumbed to parasites , which normaly emerge as maggots and harden into casters , of which I normaly feed to Mosschops the Shububkin and his Scurvy crew. ***************** Further more Fish Guinea Pigs Rabbit's Lovebirds Budgies Pigeons Mice & 11 Painted Lady catterpillars 400 Peacock catterpillars Dont talk back and seek power over oneself. Although =^o^= Schneeball is highly inteligent , knows my routine and rattles the Aluminium partition between his lounge side and Bunny dunn side any time he wants something or when I have a visitor. He does test me sometimes and the Guinea pig likes to chew Chicken wire when she wants something or crash and bang on the metal dripper thing on her water bottle when she is wanting. rabbits and Guinea Pigs seem to be a strain on my highly sensitive ASD gifted mind. Thank heavens for Fish , Mice and Birds. Much less hassle and efect on your mental stability. Oh yea and I almost forgot ! Blah blah blah blah. I have'nt even started refitting Mankee's hutch out yet. It's 1.43 am and i'm still on the computer. Have so much to do I wish I could just work through the morning ready for pickup at 9.00. But the truth is it will ruin me both physicaly and mentaly. I have trouble with sleep from the begining fullstop and by the time I have not finished my day to day chores due to being out most of the day ,it's often so early when i'm done faffing that it almost warrants me to not bothering to go to bed at all. This does'nt include keeping up with my online life too. Current Mood: Undescribable Current Music: Dont have the time (Comment on this)

11:21 pm	Severe weather warning ( Nashdom ) South London 02 , 02 2009 00.59 am. Nashdom Tramlink unit No 2539 to Therapia Lane depot , is the last from woodside this morning . I walked up the line after this tram as snow began to fall heavier on my way to sandilands. By the time I was on my way back and reached woodside again , the tracks were only just visable above the snow and I tripped at least a couple of times on them. My personal favourite snowman of the day located at Woodside Green. Hot chilli peppers for Eye brows, three green beans for a mouth , standard carrot for a nose and sliced Cucumber for buttons. Very smooth and clean and sports cool shades as well as neko ears. Addiscombe Farm circa 1676 . finaly covered in a decent quantity of snow and thus creating a classic winter postcard scene. Herons Croft Addiscombe , Circa 1493 , under a liberal covering of snow. A Snow woman borne of a dead Oak trees Spirit. Also incorporating some some bark into itself. Snowdog in Flat cap at Nash's Garden Another classic snowy scene within the Dreaming Suburb ( Nashdom ) DEPS in the snow at Sandilands Looking up the incline towards Sandilands ding a ling stop , Trams suspended and the snow covered track has become a highway for the public.

1:24 am	Home wine 2008 I decided to have another go at making some wine. The last time I done this was back in Sept 2004 , when I made Blackberry and Elderflower cordial wine. A sample packet of Elderflower cordial came in through the door back then and seeing it contained citric acid in the ingredients I decided to add it to the Blackberry must. I filled two Demijohns and in the end when the fermentation stopped I had 11 bottles out of them [ RESULT ] This year see's the return of wine making to nash's flat. This time it is Wild Pear . The tree of which is situated within the Dreaming suburb and it's location would either be on top of the former Coldstream or alongside the west bank. The Coldstream most likely having been filled in around the 1850's. Two bags of sugar went in the fermenting bin as well as a quantity of water which went on top of a considerable amount of quartered wild pears , I added pectolase and waited for two days for the juice to come out before removing all the pear sections and added the yeast. then I added yeast nutrient and the brew has taken off and is bubbling nicely. Tonight I racked off the first Demijohn's full of E.I.C Wild Pear wine. The leas have settled to the bottom now and the bubbles are popping fast and furious from the trap. < pop > , < pop > , < pop > Also in this picture a rare unseen view of a portion of my Bedroom of which has never been seen by Cabbit Kind. A small corner that has changed over the years as far as ornaments are concerned. Now sporting two Hindu gods , a jostick in holder and a miniture Buddha. the first Chinese laquered panel that I bought all those years ago is a permanent feature in this posistion.

1:07 am	Another copy of old book discovered online Found a book exactly like the one I found in Albert Rd in a skip online up for sale . Old books interest me muchly but it seems even the one online that looks exctly like mine appears not to have a date either. My copy is way better that this one as it has that light musty smell and has numerous homely foxing patches throughout. Some person thinks the book dates from 1935 but judging by the monochrome plates I would guess more in the lines of 1901 to 1920 but I may be wrong. This is one chunky old book and has that fantabulous warm and fabric like texture to the touch. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/The-Big-Book-of-Needlecraft-pub-1935-Odhams-Press_W0QQitemZ200191511271QQihZ010QQcategoryZ21537QQ_trksidZp1723.m118.l1247QQcmdZViewItem I however failed to find any examples of H H Thomas The Ideal Garden ( 1910 ) , the only H H Thomas books being of later in date to the 1930's A wonderfully embossed book with some gold guilding. Also of mention The finest legends of the rhine , Whilhelm Ruland ( 1936 ) Cacti and Succulents , A J Huxley ( 1953 ) A Manual Of Classification for librarians and bibliographers by W.C.Berwick Sayers ( 1944 ) Browns Manual Of library Economy by James Duff Brown , fifth edition by W.C.Berwick Sayers ( 1937 ) Dedicated to the memory of James Duff Brown Emerson Essays book dates to 1903 and is a hard little thing with a very Art Nurr wotzit motif on the front. A Manual Of Childrens Libraries by W.C.Berwick sayers ( 1932 ) Life Before Death , Verse by Ranald Newson ( 1938 ) Signed by the author and sent to W.C.Berwick Sayers. For Saxophone And Harpsichord , Verse by Ranald Newson ( 1932 ) Signed by the author and sent to W.C.Berwick Sayers. Cassell's Childrens Book Of Knowledge ( Vol IV ) Date unknown , belonged to a kid called james wallis at some time in the past. Edit.. Looked into Ranald Newson today online to find only one article of interest , this being a page compiled by a fellow reasearcher that had browsed the Nashdom public libraries. Reference was made to a famous Poet and Bengali Artist by the name of Rabindranath Tagore that had at some point been aquainted with the poet Ranald Newson in the early part of the 20th century. This prompted me to today again visit a particular skip in Elmers Rd and have a further rummage within , towards one end of the skip I found yet another book of poems by Ranald Newson , this being in good condition but minus it's covers . Think of my suprise when I looked in a few pages to find a folded piece of lined paper , I instantly became excited and the content added further trimmings after only just spotting said name on a web page that morning. Isadora , Verse by Ranald Newson ( 1935 ) Contained letter from Ranald Newson to W.C.Berwick Sayers. Undated letter as reads Dear Mr Sayers. Rabindranath tagore arrives in England in april and I have arranged to return with him to India in June. Meanwhile I have made a farewell offering of verse - which I send to you. You have done a great deal to help me and I am deeply grateful to you. I am very tired of life , but I still dream of creating a series of big works for the sake of those few who have stood by me. Your Sincerely Ranald Newson ------------- This letter explaining the Author signed copies of his said works to W.C.Berwick Sayers . It's a small world. Also Bombs were dropped , verse by Ranald Newson [ Date 1940 ] slightly rotten hole at rear of book and pages have come away from long rusting staples.

10:46 pm	The old mans dilema. Grandpa Rex's chances of transfer to a old peoples home near Nashdom has taken a setback earlier this week , after failing to show her face over the Christmas period to see her uncle at the Devon old peoples home , she suddenly decided to object to the old mans plans to move back to Nashdom to be with his friends. The Mother of none other than Nash himself called the old mentor this afternoon , of which gramps at one point was almost to the point of tears . Despite being 87 years of old grandpa rex is more than on the ball and has been more than depressed of late and just wants to get out and return back to suburbia where he see's his real life as being. A visit by Nash and Kyosho was almost postponed for fear of upsettng his feelings as we may not be bringing him home after all , but Rex being the bright man he is and would have been expecting us anyway , it was decided that we would make the trip to Devon after all , after the old man pleaded for our presence. Kyosho and Nash plan to leave from Norwood Nashdom at 6.30am Saturday morning and with funds from Mumsy wumsy and a list of B&B's to contact when we are down there , the garmin will be set up to the exact address and we should arrive at Yelverton around 11.00 am . Spotted : The duo will be traveling in the Star Silver Vectra GSi estate with motorsport alloys and yellow motorsport flashes , a car of which is rather on the emphatic side of voice. Hopefully it wont break down on the way there or on the return journey. I shall wear my custom made T shirt and extra wide bell JNCO jeans and black suede beetlecrushers just in case a miracle should happen but I dont think I will wear all of my regalia as I have put on a bit of Sir cumfrence around the wrists. Quote : Not Harry seccombe , Shut up you fool ! Will also take the Cannon EOS300D just in case we have a group hug or feel the need to obtain evidence of the old mans farmer style white beard , of which is Rex's late teenage rebelion. It would have been nice if this was the journey we brought the old man home , but Rex himself holds the key and needs to tell his neice what to do and where to go , and hopefully not get too emotional at seeing the two of us and thus give up. I would suggest an alliance with all the members of the Orange and Green community in Devon and fabricate an uprising and ceremoniusly ride into the countryside with an Ultimatum or treaty to have the elder statesman released , and then there's Plan B . Bombard a certain location near Ivybridge with French fries , parsnips and rabid pink weasels until until the bumpkin conceedes defeat . But unfortunately I must remind myself this is in fact the real world. So if anybody happens to see two seriously lanky guys emerge from a Silver Veccie Estate in the south west , you never know your luck. It maybe that one of them is . . . . . .

4:26 pm	John Mills The scene is Cassablanca and a rather tall and handsom sky blue cabbit man leans on a piano with a tall Martini perched ontop. As the seedy venue buzzes on lightly a man in a fez hat does his stuff on the Joanna . Cunard takes another puff on his ciggarette and scolds the mongul looking man. " Meeoow ! , If you can play it fo her , you can play it for me , PLAY IT " Suddenly the gaunt faced cabbit gents attention is distracted and he aggitatedly fiddles with his tuxedo or smart suit as it were , he takes another puff and exhales. =^_^= " I have been expecting you " he talks with a stiff and slightly folded upper lip at an approaching lady ," would you like a drink at the bar." The mongul man amid the air of fashionable smoke , Carlsberg beer and eastern spices , begins to play The Song. But it's her song not cunards. Cunard smiles half heartedly. =^_^= " Now how about that drink ? " , I also have a bowl of Banana's from bombay and Dates from Iran. The cabbit gent coughs and stubbs his ciggerette out. But watch the monkey he bites. =^_^= " I dont usualy do this smoking thing, * cough * Eh hem , but im trying to add to the atmospere in a litteral sense I might add ". (Comment on this)

1:20 pm	Mineral based Cabbits stats. After browsing for Snailbeach Lead Mine nr Minsterly Shropshire , of which has some indirect story link to my self created Cabbits of certain crystaline base materials. I started with Sphalerite or ~sphaler~ the male cabbits crystal compund of which in reality is Zinc Sulphide , saving a page to my favourites that showed variations in crystal formations. No doubt it will be one of these crystals that will adorn the forhead of ~sphaler~ if I ever get to drawing a representation of him. I also found out the suprise proposals to create a Narrow guage railway from Callow Hill quarry all the way up eventualy to Snailbeach mine itself , a web site that contains much information indeed. But after a recent note from Council representatives saying that the region needs not another steam railway and should put their money towards repairs of track and trackbed on the Severn Valley railway after serious flood damage , a complete U turn of a local councils support. Needless to say the Snailbeach District Railway as it has been called has thrown caution to the wind and scrapped the idea of working to a 2ft 3/4 in guage for the more standard Narrow guage. Indeed I still have specimens of Sphalerite and Galena of which I have drawn an early representation of this female cabbit that pre dates my first Nash-eoke drawing. The specimens of which now reside in my glass cabinet along with other numerous field trip specimens. I also stumbled upon a list and came across another of my self created mineral based cabbits , This one being the female Celeste . I have a large specimen of Celestine ( Strontium Sulphate ) in my collection and have looked up the crystal meditation qualities of this mineral , of which goes a long way to describe the cabbits character itself. I remember buying this large cluster at Merton Abbey mills but you can also find celestine in Nodules at Cassington Pit in Oxfordshire , of which are situated in the sticky grey blue clays of the Jurrasic Oxford Clay. Needless to say I have subsequently and randomly started a drawing of ~Celeste~ now and she has taken on a more high society governess look . Now the the Cabbit Patches Adopt a cabbit is gone > One has to create their own stories so lets say a young posh boy with a huge round swirly lollipop and school baseball cap found her in and old Victorian ferned garden grotto. He he And at this moment ~ Celeste~ is looking rather a dainty outline. List of self created mineral based cabbits as follows. ( F ) ~celeste~ Heavenly pale blue , Calm , Intelligent and creative , wonderful singer , Spiritualy aware and has taken on a high class guise do to new young owners touch. Interpretation under way. ( M ) ~MALACHI~ Green cabbit was on Cabbit Patch Adopt a cabbit but not adopted or referenced ( F ) ~CORUNDE~ Pink Red cabbit , No interpretation as yet , neither adopted or referenced ( M ) ~Chryso~ Yellow cabbit with full large crystal in forehead , was found locked in a cage in the dark by a girl called Kawii on a school caving trip , who took him to a farm and then Kawii dissapeared due to lack of communication with her cabbit. ( F ) ~ Galena ~ Silver cabbit with Gun metal or dull lead colour patches , was self adopted by Author Darren Hollycrofts foster daughter Mirage Hollycroft , ~galena~ is a strange cabbit in that she has unstable masses and frequently reverts to her soft mass state ,also due to her metalic base she will take on the form of any machine or internal combustion powered vehicle that she should accidently fall on in this state , or deliberately placed by Mirage. Current Forms Carrot Juice Powered Silver Peugeot 405 saloon ( Mirage ) An Oldsmobile ( Old Crock ) Circa 1900 -1910 A Supermarine Super Stranraer boat plane A Handley Page 42 passenger airline. Also did I mention ~Galena~ and Mirage are totaly raging. XD so close. ( M ) ~SPHALER~ Sphaler is featured in many forums as a user and featured in one roleplay but as yet this male cabbit has no representation in a drawing , I have guessed sphaler's mental stability at first to be unstable and prone to attacking his new owner if he should get one. , but I am sure he will snap out of it. May or may not be found by Marie a character of Camryn's. Also recently I started a very basic drawing of the Kidney shaped pool with many mailstroms , I remember in the dream the water was an ugly algae filled dark green but in this case the imagination triumphs once again and I am sure I can design a nice ground submerged swimming pool from the dream memory. And in other news I opened up a bottle of Pret Carrot juice this morning only for it to after a good shake to go up like a fermented fountain. I have never known anything like it.

7:10 pm	Mucho mucho hkappiness =^-^= This years halloween looks to be yet another groundbreaking one in the line of personal pumpkin design. This years two main pumpkins being ( a ) An organic allotment grown pumpkin that must weight at least 40lbs , it is a rather corky skinned fruit and I have gone with the idea of the Puking pumpkin for 2007 . Seeing as the 2006 main carving the 69lb Ferox pumpkin ( (V) (oo) (V) ) almost made us threw up ourselves Barbie and I. ( b ) After removing something from my Converted Leksvik glass cabinet I had inspiration decided I would do a pumpkin for cousin Stuart this year . It seems that I have taken a jump from having good basic pumpkin skills maybe to the next level , because this specialy designed pumpkin will take some carefull work. but due to aquiring new tools I am confident the Vauxhall Gryffyn < or however you spell it will come out on top. Hopefully when all is done and the pictures have been taken Stuart can send a few Picture messages to the Vauxhall Sports car club S.E region chaps and chapess's So here is 2007's ditch effort at a I can beat you for 2005's All Hallowes cabbit carving . The performance Gryffyn carving , the pumpkin in question being a 99p Tesco bought standard run of the mill Jack O lantern variety pumpkin. Note I wont be showing pics of it carved and lit up until next year , so enjoy the silver logo in it's entire.

3:45 pm	last years carvings this year. I thought I had better slap up a couple of pictures of last years ( 2006s ) pumpkin carving efforts , as I had been asked at the time by somebody what my 69lb pumpkin looked like. but as a rule I always post up pics of the previous years carvings the year later. So for the two or three peeps that gaze upon my LJ here are a couple of pics of last years 69lb Ferox pumpkin. A pumpkin that I nearly lost due to my Father picking it a month too early . It sat at Barbara's in the back room and was set upon by Fruit flies of which commenced feasting on the remains of the stalk . Eventualy it began to look worrying and water began to build up around the stalk caused by the enzymes in the flies saliva breakinbg down the top of the pumpkin. I tried everything to dry it out from tissue paper to salt , but eventualy I was picking hairy fruit fly larvae from the flesh around the stalk with tweezers. Eventualy when we did come up to halloween and opened this huge pumpkin , Barbara and I almost threw up after it was clear the fruit flies saliva had affected the inside of the pumpkin or maybe it was the salt. The innards stank and all the seeds were swimming in a grean slurry. The walls of the pumpkin were in some cases very thin indeed and down to maybe a couple of centimeters only as you can see by the orange glow on the sides of finished carved pumpkin. after carving and being completely hosed down inside and excess water absorbed by tea towels and bogroll , the pumpkin finaly was ready for 5 or 6 CP ( Candle Poewer ) , this thankfully began to dry the inside of our Behemoth out and it declined from degrading any further , and eventualy became a half decent carving for 2006. After a wet start , The Ferox pumpkin A 3/4 side view of the Ferox pumpkin showing the ears I added to the sides and the port on top to release heat and prevent lid shrinking and burning.

2:52 pm	Random Historical and rail related ramblings. This past bank holiday has been quite interesting indeed. First of all Stuart , Myslef , Kev and Bev and the two kids went to the Mid Hants railway , there were two engine working that day. Them being The Unrebuild West Country 4.6.2 Light pacific class as designed by O.V.S Bullied , No 34007 that being Wadebridge , the first time I have see this particular engine in steam. Also Br Standard 6 4.6.0 as designed by Riddles , No 73096 . The same engine that does the Daylight railtours on the mainline , also being the first time that I have seen this engine. Some extra loco's were spotted at Ropley , These being the rebuilt West Country Bodmin a Diesel of the Class 33 class or ( Crompton ) as they were called , Cannadian Pacific was in the shed and an 08 diesel shunter was nearby but all but silent , The sole survivor of the Maunsell N class 2.6.0 is still painted in James red which continues to apall me. If there is a Thomas weekend just let the kids have Thomas , there no need to ruin the Uk's one and only example of N class mogul is there. but it seemed that during the day kevin proved to be the biggest kid out of the lot of us and much to the embarrasment of his two kids. on my ramblings at Arlesford station I found the LSWR signal post lamp cases to be of different design to the one I found at the trackside at Gowlands close in Addiscombe , although made by the same company , Welch Patent S 35 Lamp Mfg & Rly Supplies Ltd London. On the Arlesford I found the mounts to be different and also the backlights as well as in one case a difference in the design of the ventilator , taking into account these were in fact lower quadrant semaphore signals . It was'nt until we got off at ropley I discovered the Ropley Up starter signal was upper quadrant and to my suprize had the same external HS 79 lamp case fitted that I found in Addiscombe ,this one however was painted all over in black and had the standard pins keeping the spindle in place and the lid down. It seems on closer inspection of the Lamp cases at Arles ford and then from a distance at ropley that the cases are all devoid of burners , so it seems that the railway obviously is obliged to end workings before nightfall , however I cannot be sure about shunting signals on the railway. --------------- After the Mid hants we all went down on Winchester as Stuart and I had visited Salisbury on the way back from seeing Grandpa Rex in Devon that time , said to at once have been englands capital I found it a lovely small town with wonderfull architecture , profuse statues of interest and more than enogh green space and bedding schemes to keep any tourist interested. I became slightly agitated towards the end of the trip as I could feel my normal pains begining to rise , and yet I was still stuck in the wetherspoon ordering and evening meal. Eventualy a chicken Korma was devoured and I itched to get back outside and acheive my objective. Due to a flitting floggit moment with Paul Martin I convinced myself that the scene in Mum and Dads heirloom oil painting on a Mahogany panel was in fact a corner of Winchester , but father will be himself and deny any truth until he is blue in the face , even the bible of the Oxford dictionary is wrong to him. Unfortunately for him my fleeting Floggit hunch was correct and I found the modern scene to be very similar indeed to that in the painting , the only changes being that there are more untaxable windows in the buildings now and there are a set of Georgian columns missing in the modern day. Also if I remember the artist of which we have no signature was most likely having a larf at the time and has replaced a statue of perhaps King Alfred in the painting with a Virgin Mary and baby Jesus , I shall have to check on that , also it seems that the spire of this monument has been replavce at some point in the last 2 to 300 yrs.

10:15 pm	Slooshy Sloshy The Custom made T shirt a few days before the arrival of Jezarel , Photo taken alongside the ExPostie at East India Way , Addiscombe , Croydon. And most likely the towns longest and highest freestanding wall of which used to be the platform 3 wall of the so named station that used to be on this site. After all the preparation and rather expensive price , my fellow paw munchkins never got to either the shirt or me in person , mainly due to lack of organisation , communication at the appropriate time , and also a mornings laziness on my part the day she arrived. The custom made T shirt around the time of Jezarel's visit and unfaded , I am currently brandishing a cluster of Radishes that were grown in Nash's garden , or Barbara's garden. Seeing as the carrots are all but dried up , the lil furries must find alternative roots to eat. The front transfer and =^-^= T shirt as a whole after it's unfortunate fading due to it's first and last wash. A closer look at the front transfer. =^-^= , need I say more . The rear transfer on the =^-^= custom made T shirt. Current Mood: Gutted Current Music: Lemon Jelly : Nice weather for ducks (2 Comments |Comment on this)

1:39 pm	Red sock in with the whites. " What has become of my T shirt " " All the colours are running " So let the colours runs , look what they have become. =^~^= Seems my Custom made Nash in a suitcase T shirt that I had made specialy made for Jezarel on her visit to the UK , it has faded in the wash well at least the transfers on the front and rear have. But as Bob Ross would say , " We dont make mistakes , we have happy accidents " , as in this case . the T shirt looks much less like the U2 All that you cant leave behind briefcase cover and has taken on a more Zooropa look from 1993 , so it's not such a disaster after all. but I wont be washing it again. And in other news Jonathan , A.K.A Mr_Nash recieved a letter from Bromley hospital a few days ago , I am to go for a souper douper wooper Nuclear scan next monday coming , I have to be injected with a Nuclear Tracing fluid before a two or four hour wait , I am then having a full body Souper Douper Wooper scan , more steps to be taken in finding out what is causing my > Random < joint pains and what it is. And whatever happens to me happens to Nash-eoke , so I may have a new idea for a DA deviation or maybe another T Shirt , providing I keep it away from the Washing Machine !!

1:57 am	More pointless audio equiptment by Nash Found a single Aiwa SX-WNS888 speaker yesterday of which was silver in appearance and was a rather unusual item , with the normal super tweeter and a mid range speaker and a huge port at the front , I had notice that the speaker was rather heavy and on closer inspection on the way back to my flat I noticed that there was a rather large Sub Woofer contained internaly. Well due to the audio wires having been cut off by the mean last owners I decided to destroy the speaker today after last night breaking it down and bare to the 160mm SubWoofer , to cut a long story short with ruler in hand I done some mesuring and removed at least a 1/3 off the depth of the speeker with a saw so it looks as it is now , a job that was'nt too easy and used a circular cutting thingy on a cordless drill to create a port at the back before soldering new thicker audio wire to the terminals and filling all holes with silicone sealent. So in the end I come up with this pretty pointless speaker , but it kept me busy and I like the rustic old school look of it , especcialy the Red Dymo lettering on the front that I put on . The mid range speaker that came in the origional SX-WNS888 speaker is bagged up if I ever should need it in the future. Tried it out tonight and it works allright , seems a little weak though I could maybe insert a capasitor < ? at some later date me thinks.
