Dinner For One!

Hi Woodsy

I am afraid I do not know too much about this furry gentleman, who is about to tuck in to a pretty substantial looking fish dinner. Apart from the fact that it looks to be friction-powered, Made in Hong Kong, and was numbered No.417 on the underside.

There are two wheels under the red box, and a single wheel under the barrel. Bizarre, but cute.

Four photographs from Worthpoint.

The rest of the Dining Cat photos. I have no idea what his real name is. Another toy I stumbled across while looking for something else.

Yours Sincerely,

Cold and Recovery

 Well, the whole family - daughter, SiL, Grandkids, Missus and me - has been struck by the common cold and members are at varying stages of misableness.

After keeping it in abeyance this weekend somehow whilst attending a large family gathering in Leyland its geared up with avengance today, so I've been in bed most of this Monday on my new laptop and drinking hot tea in between sneezes.

A big job has been trying to recover a corrupted file for my latest book project with Blurb on the X-series of toys.

After several hours of re-pasting Bill's fabulous photos and my archived pictures, Stage 1 of the recovery has uploaded and I now need to complete Stage 2, the text edits again, which will take a good hour.

More steaming Yorkshire tea is required before I carry on though.

Have you got a cold?

Have you ever lost or corrupted an important computer file readers? Did you recover it?
