I don't know the last time I was in Scotland I bagged a brace of wild Haggis. I have to say they weren't wild until I shot them, then they were bloody mad.

I hope you don't mind but I edited your link so that it would work, you had got "with" mixed in with the link. Curious meanings for the word "entire" especially the "not castrated" one. I bet the "& Sons" were glad of that.

Going back a week or so, re- the posts about Harborne Clock Tower I was surprised to find I hadn't got a photo of the tower on file. So I have looked through my books and found this one. So here is a photo (without scaffold) of Harborne Heath Board School as it was once known.

Here you are Phil, from the book HARBORNE-A HISTORY by Edward Chitham.

I have got The Images of England book "Harborne" by Martin Hampson. The trouble is I am running out of bookspace and I have now resorted to putting them in drawers, the problem being they get forgotten that way. The main trouble is I have so many books on different subjects, I think I will have to thin them out a bit by having an Ebay sale. I will just hang on to the Birmingham ones.

Tell the missus you are going to shelve the loft out.

I dare not mention the loft, or else she will have me up there clearing all the junk I have amassed over the years.

How about building a humidified garden shed library.

Here's the proposed designs for the new signs, they decided against the old look fearing it would look out of place, said they wanted a more classier look, the building will be re-painted in appropriate colours. (bet they change their mind again) I'm dealing with the lady of the house, a very nice young one I must say (and that's whats got me worried).
