A87904407 The Potato Dumpling War of 1967

Please subscribe to the above. Am I the only one to think that an entry about catapults should be written in Trebuchet?

You and Pastey, maybe.

I've made a few minor changes, so it is ready for your read through.
You say tomato, I say , you say potato, I say 'Fire!'

My Dad built a catapult a few years ago. Unfortunately the website that he wrote about it has since died:

Oh, what a shame about the website. Maybe they can find a new host?

Speaking of reenactors, last night I saw the first episode of 'The Frankenstein Chronicles'. There were gratuitous references to the 95th in there, and 'Over the Hills and Far Away' was whistled...

This looks fine to me. away...

It's quite a fun way to transport cans of beans from one side of a field to another...

I've not seen 'The Frankenstein Chronicles' - is it any good?

I've pressed the button.

So far, it looks pretty good...that is, it's well-done, though a bit scary, creepy, and with a lot of river muck in. Sean Bean jumps into the Thames, it's 1827, I shout, 'No! Stay out of there, you'll get a disease!'

But hey, it's Sean Bean, you can't go wrong.

Congratulations! Your Entry is on the Front Page today

Thanks!
