The battle continues and we have increasingly moved towards buying historic material and then trying to turn it into knives. We are getting ready for Christmas in the UK and it’s just about to snow or so they say. They are finally letting people into football stadiums but only say 3000 people in a 80000 seater stadium and am just watching a somewhat inebriated gentleman seemingly unable to find his seat when he has 77000 empty ones to chose from - that’s COVID for you. This year we have acquired part of a Concorde engine. We operate under the philosophy that the material and what it stands for should not be machined out to provide a conventional product. Unfortunately the engine has defeated us but you can see how far we have got on epoch.gifts My wife has got a bit cheesed off with having to provide storage for items like a meteor jet wing from the worlds first functional jet fighter but I suppose if we still lived in France she would have to put up with cows occasionally wandering into the lounge. We because of our age are being lined up for the first vaccine injections and last week we were injected with something or other and I suspect they were just warming up.
