Heard an "expert" on TV recently saying that Brown Sauce works if you don't have Brasso, or other suitable product.

I haven't tried it but worth attempting on an inconspicuous spot

I remember seeing that on Blue Peter when I was a kid.

I have Pro Tools but only have 24 groups, so it looks like it's another feature that's being rolled out gradually.

BBC Weather showing, for Isle of Man, Hurricane Force winds of 625 mph?! :o
I'm in north east England and we've been forecast 511mph winds. It's on the BBC so it must be true  ;D

Well he looks to be ruled out then.

That photograph was taken at Middleton Tower Holiday Camp!
If that's the same Middleton Tower camp that was at Heysham, it opened in 1939.

Our doctors had a walk in clinic this morning for flu jabs so we went down for that and while we were there we were offered a covid jab too which we weren't expecting, so all done and dusted.

My other favourite was Britains garden complete with greenhouse, pond, flower beds, lawns and a lawn mower etc. Still have that in the loft.

I had that too, spent hours playing with it, very fiddly trying to put the flowers on the stalks and bushes.

That must've been a terrible shock, so pleased you weren't hurt. We had a pleasant day, our daughter came over with Hazel, we took the dog out for a walk before taking him to the groomers, just waiting for the call to pick him up.
