Morning All ;)
Off to work we go :eek:
Welcome once again to History Today. I'm afraid that tonight the axe is hanging over our programme. We have been warned that unless we properly explore tonight's topic of discussion, the Industrial Revolution, my and Professor F J Lewis' tenure on the television will be terminated forthwith. So Professor Lewis, what do you feel were the primary problems faced by urban society during the period 1702-56
Well, the industrial revolution caused a shift to urban conurbations by what had been largely aggrarien populations and communities and so forth. This led to very poor living conditions in general. Samuel Peeps gives a particularly harrowing account of one man whom he describes thus: "He had scurvy and rickets and was covered from head to foot in festering sores. All in all he was quite the most ghastly apparition of a man i had ever seen."
I see. And who exactly was this poor unfortunate?
That's you that is. That's the nicest thing he could find to say:eek: :D
"[Spits] See that bit of gob ?"
"Yes..."
"Thats your swiming pool that is."
:d Good afternoon
Enjoy your afternoon and evening, might catch you later, just on my lunch ten minutes or so at work

hey merry I noticed you lived near Lake Ontario, was that Toronto?
might have to read reply later though, take care.
Small town called Stirling, nearest big town was Belleville. About 50 miles away from Toronto. From age 4-6. Still remember it now. Wolves wandering down the street in winter. A Musk rat in the kitchen till my Dad poisoned it. He got offered a job in Vancouver BC after two years in Ontario, Mum was homesick and they decided if they were gonna have a big move, it would be back here. Shame really, Could have grown up playing ice hockey with them canucks:D
and instead of those wacky fell races you could have been running the rockies

still have his story on my wishlist at amazon, what a story and what a guy
Nice thought, could be Rockylegs then. Love stories like that, anythings possible, shame he died, but its what he did while alive that matters. Same for us all. Ever heard of this guy?

Gotta go now, wife asked 'Is it possible for you to do some housework before you go to work':eek: Not ready to leave this world yet so i'd better crack on. Have a good day, Adair, catch you later;)
thanks for the link, really engaging article and a down to earth yet remarkable guy. love this quote
"For most of us, racing can be very personal. The desire to flog yourself and go further and faster than you thought possible defines your 'self'. Of course, beating your personal demons propels most of us beyond our competitors..
very fell related quote I think
I liked that one too, i only ever race against myself and my inner demons, just having a tussle with the 'I don't like emptying the dishwasher' demon at the mo. Strength and Honour!
for those who are about to rock, we salute you!
or for those about to empty the dishwasher, as long as I can see a written method statement, a risk assesment and a yellow flourescent jacket, we salute you too!
that shave should knock a few seconds off the bike ride!
