Stuff and Nonsense

I am not surprised, but I am delighted, to have discovered the
depth and breadth of interest on this forum. Especially for
matters technical, industrial and historical. As such I give
you, Stuff and Nonsense.
There is only going to be one theme;
[font=comic sans ms]"Before the age of homogenization and
micro-machinery, before the tyrannous drive for efficiency of
internal combustion and the domestication of electricity; there
lived beautiful, monstrous machines that lived and breathed and
exploded at inconvenient moments. It was a time where art and
craft were united, where unique wonders were invented and
forgotten, and 'the green oval' meant a cricket pitch."[/font]

That's part of the beauty of OLLR - I know some people find us a
bit distasteful due to the language and non PC attitude on here,
but for sheer variety of interests that you have mentioned,
there are not many forums that can compete!

Is "Having a gander" a euphemism for fucking Goose? Are you
"doing" him?

Gentlemen, I have been bested by experience and find myself in
fear that I may peak with my introduction, however. . .
This is what was behind that door, quite some years ago. Next
Wednesday I will regail you with phots of how it looks now. . .
. . ;-)
Once part of Pompey's sewage pumping setup and still council
owned. Open as a museum until the mid eighties when the money
ran out, now open again ;D
