This is a very hard quartzite I picked up. Not travelled far. Edges are sharp. It would be a tool material though. I thought it was a chert/tool or core but it is not. Descriptions in alt. Very interesting rock and a nice one to have. Pleased with its lovely features, as any geologist would be.

When you land a Spitfire in a ploughed field, you need some new terms. ""Fly a Spitfire said: "We have spoken to the pilot who has advised that a precautionary landing was made at a non-airfield site.""- "I pranged the bloody thing" is not how

20 grains Ipecacuahna at Night
20 gr Jalapin- or an equally powerful dose of Rhubarb in the morning
¾ ounces of Bark the Night preceeding the fit- repeat the dose of Bark 5 days after- Bishop Cleaver-

Given the historical contortions as a result of the Carlson disgrace, a look at history reveals far more about human life covering a period perhaps 6000 years old and the arrival of proto cities and community. forensic-architecture.org/investigatio...

A thread: 🧵
I am going to poison you all with Goulards extract. Msr. Thomas Goulard had quite powerful incentives in his promotion of lead salts as a medicine. He was charging customers what, in today’s prices, would be about £80, for a gallipot of this poisonous muck.

Transliteration is quite hard, however I got used to the handwriting. Doing the Huntroyd Receipts I did my best to use convention, but sometimes it did not quite suit what was wanted.

I want to tell you all how to Pickle Pork. It is quite a long process. You can read it here below, but I will post it too. The piggie lump weighs 200 pounds or 90.7 kg.

A few of my loves. Watermill archaeo. Receipts of Huntroyd Hall if you like 18th century cooking. Don't try to eat or drink all of 'em, some are deadly poisons (as we know now).
