Tea: Heinz leek & potato soup, Morrisons wholemeal sunflower and spelt bread, bramble jelly sandwich on same, red corner yog, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: "The spy with my face (1965)", feature length ep of The Man From Uncle.
Amusing enough if you ignore the goofs.
10 minutes of the Chateau thing with Dick Strawbridge and his lovely () wife.
Now: The Oak Island nutjobs.
They've washed a lot of the crap off the paved area in the swamp.
Now they're in the war room reviewing the stuff they saw at the fort last week & comparing with the paved area.
Next: Gary metal detecting in the swamp.
Expert says the swamp isn't natural (as in glacial till) it's man made.
Dr Spooner finds a stick to give a date.
Gary's doing his thing with the spoil.
I love the way they jump down into unsupported holes.
Meanwhile, back at The Money Pit drill site they're stepping away from Shaft 2, towards where they think the Money Pit is.
Back to the Dartmouth museum to have a look for the 90 foot stone of ancient legend.
And digging up someone's lawn begins.
Back with Gary they find an old pickaxe.
Gary reckons it's a tunneling pickaxe.
Next they find an old spade.
At the museum they've dug a big feck off hole, exposed A Lot of Rocks and found: nothing.
Back at the war room, reviewing the chunk of wood from the drilling: dates to 1626 to 1680.
The 1680 date correlates with a date for The Eye of the Swamp.
Next week: they find more wood and more iron.Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; 29 November 2020, 21:58.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment

The slow cooker finally yielded up the chicken & barley soup and very nice it is too, accompanied by wholemeal bread
Once again I had a fair bit of veg to use up so I also added more barley than usual. As a result, it's exceedingly thick and needs diluting, which is a Good Thing as it means more portions for the same amount of space in the freezerComment

Soup divvied up, yielding six large portions. I could have made seven slightly smaller ones, but I decided to assume that I'll want a filling lunch when I eat themComment

Teatime (late) viewing was Powering Britain - Series 1: Nuclear which appears to be the final one in that series. Interesting stuff
Originally posted by NickFitz View PostApparently this was the first Norwegian disaster movie (and, indeed, the first Scandinavian one) ever made, and it's since been joined by a sequel also based on a true event, concerning an earthquake in Oslo and thus called (in English) The Quake
Both "free" with Prime at the moment, should you fancy some Nordic disaster
