That’s really good to hear, I hope it didn’t take too long to get the result. My mum had a hysterectomy as a result of hers. I’d like to say that things have moved on with its treatment but I’m not so sure.
I was very saddened to see that the BBC didn’t report the passing of John Woodvine.
It’s been a fair few years since I was last in the customs house (I once briefly considered joining the sea cadets). I can remember that it’s very lop-sided inside - like spending a few days at sea.
My wife suffers quite badly from it too. I feel for you as it can be crippling at times.
I’ve always found being allergic to battledress quite amusing. After being discharged from the army for ‘ceasing to fulfil army medical requirements’ he went on to join LNER/British Railways and had 35 year career on the iron road. Strange to think he made corporal in WWII but didn’t see action.
No need to worry about being pedantic, I’m just as bad most of the time. Happy to be corrected. 😊
A type of wool fabric used in some uniforms.
My grandad wasn’t, just drove a universal carrier around southern England for a bit before being discharged from the army due to an allergic reaction to surge. He had it quite cushy.
Seriously. My school friend Matthew‘s dad used to do clay pigeon shooting. Although he used to lock his guns away, we used to steal his shotgun cartridges saw the ends off & play with the powder. Hitting the end of the cartridges with a hammer is probably one of the reasons why I have tinnitus now.
I love their half pint measures too (full to the brim). Cheers 🍻
A few pints in my great local micropub and a takeout for later. Sunday afternoons at their best.
It’s handy that as well as Hinchingbrooke hospital there’s both a police station as well as Cambridgeshire Constabulary headquarters all within a quarter mile of the station. Still a fantastic response.
And to think that almost exactly a week ago last Saturday evening I was stood at a very quiet Huntingdon station waiting for my train back to Peterborough.
Thanks for this, it sounds great. The last couple have days have been alright. I’ll have a listen when I’m at work next week. 👍🏻
It is, but it’s a great feel good kind of photo.
A stunning soundtrack that deserves to be better known.
This reminds me of your picture by the water. I’ve used it as my ‘album art’ for my Teleman music on my phone as I discovered them through your good self. I hope you don’t mind.
It’s both ‘of it’s time’ and timeless.
I still use both but I do find the Musk side of things quite toxic.
I hope that you picked up a few local ales. The Oundle Waitrose often has a few beers from the Potbelly Brewery in Kettering. The Nene Valley brewery is also very close and I highly recommend their bourbon barrel aged Russian imperial stout. One of my favourites.
I miss evening rail travel in the dark, Huntington Station I quite like.
The full 22+ minute album version. Epic!
I loved his Desert Island Discs.
