A BIT OF A CATCH UP DAY WITH PROGRESS ON SOME FRONTS

Pretty humdrum stuff happening here, we went early to M&S but it was still queuing at just after 8am, still we have got anything we may need for Christmas and when we got back we had a brew and headed off to the Northwich tip where you have to show your identity now to get rid of your rubbish but at least the stack of cardboard has gone. We tackled the orders as they arrived and Mandy ended up going to the post office twice as I think people are now looking for entertainment in possible lock downs after Christmas or even before in some parts. Perhaps a darkest before the dawn for the early part of 2021. The only day which looks suitable for filming next week will be Tuesday so I'll keep tabs on any forecasts before then.

I had a few bits of family correspondence to do like trying to get in touch with my sister an nephews and my aunt in Peterborough who sort of answered but didn't and I just had chatter going on. I did a few small bits on the diorama and finally got the cubes with stand numbers made and in place. The trees I'd got from China are pretty awful, I think I will need to look again, they might have a use with some toning down of bright green foliage which almost sparkles and is more akin to a toilet brush than a tree. Here are some more photos from my trip to Goole yesterday, I've downloaded the film just need to edit the three programmes. I did get some more films on digital download on the PMP shop, not a lot though.  It looks like we'll be at the pub again this evening as its carol singing night.

Tomorrow I want to get the archive list fully annotated for the films listed in recent months giving locations and content, its all there to be picked over and filled in just needs some time devoted to it.  I need to get still image files deleted or stored as appropriate and there is a host of family history material to get uploaded. So lets have some more truck shots from Goole.
