Some old modellers used to melt plastic sprue over a candle while gently pulling each end of the sprue to achieve the desired thickness. You could the...

Applause for the NHS staff.
Our neighbours joined us in the 8 pm applause last night. It occurred to me that we have our own British form of applause. (British Clap is obviously something else!!!) Most forum members will have seen the film "The Italian Job" and will recall the clap-clap,clap-clap-clap, clap-clap-clap...

A curse on W10
I have a new computer fitted with Windows 10. To my surprise I found that this excellent machine has no disk drive.
