We were left in charge of our one year old grandson and decided to have a day out in Manchester, innocently I said we could visit the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry, that a good idea the Boss said.
(don't you just love it when a plan comes off)

Well the little chap just loved it he got all excited at the water wheel, watched in fascination at it going round bouncing up and down with excitement.
Then we came to a Crossley Gas Engine just as they were about to start it, Grandads turn to watch in fascination at it going round and to bounce up and down with excitement. Had a long chat with the engineer, while the little chap slept in his push chair dreaming of thing mechanical, Boss was looking daggers but I soon got rid of her when I suggested she have a look round some of the shop while I looked after the lad and chat to the nice engineer, found out that they are looking for volunteers to help maintain the engines. My names on the list.
Thought I'd share some of the day with you Chaps
Enjoy
