One the 27.4.17 POOR old Spin bought his first holding in Enquest at 39.4p hoping for a meagre return to help him provide for his old age. During the next few months he traded it held it and sold it and today I can truthfully say I am 9.2% up....Even I saw there was little future in coal mining and poor old Fred Dibnahs industries. Steam engines are for enthusiasts and canal s for holidays. There will still be uses for the odd bag of coal and as for narrowboats I love them...There is nothing like a coal fire even all around die from the chimney emissions.
Outside the wind is blowing about Force 8. The sea is rough but the sun is shining. The heating is hardly on and I am a toasty. My top quality insulation, glazing and my low wattage Tv are all helping. Chilting is like me. He still sees the need for oil but embraces the possibility of a renewable futue. Madam Spin has not bought her monthly train ticket now for a year and will never probably again. I have not filled the dirty diesel since the 23.12.20...It still tells me I have 285 miles in the tank!!
I have not done a lot this week. Everything is slowwwww. Jan posted AB's letter so I have had a larf and I still have 21 episodes of Last the Summer Wine to watch. Bliss. Ahh feel a recalcitrant tongle coming on.. GL all
