I was never a big fan of wearing badges, but as a volunteer at "men in sheds" we are required to wear them so there could well be 3 or 4 of us there on Saturday with AgeUK badges on. I will be the one with the hairy face so say hello and have a quick natter. :beer: Cheers Dek. :med: |

Hi there, Dek, This is :offtopic: but please could you explain "men in sheds"? I read somewhere about a sort of communal blokes' workshop club, is that the sort of thing you're referring to? Rather different from a Model Engineering club. Reconciling such an institution with H&S could be challenging! |

Don't care what sort of hand shake it is, as long as it has a bacon butty in the middle. |

Hi Pete. If you use Gary's link that will save my one typing finger a lot of trouble. H&S has not proved to be a problem so far, and we have been open for nearly 4 years, total wounds so far, one hole drilled in finger, and one finger end opened up a little on the bandsaw. :palm: I was not present on either occasion. I think there are now about 40 "sheds" around the country although the ones in Cheshire are the only ones organised by AgeUK. If you do a google search you could well find one close to you. They are a great place to make new mates and have a real good laugh. John, I don't think we have any of those stone bashers with only one trouser leg, and I can't eat bacon butties since I had all my teeth taken out. The misses does do some wonderful cheese & onion ones though. :thumbup: See you folks on Saturday ???? :beer: Cheers Dek. :med: |
