@stockotrader.bsky.social🧵Dr Gwendoline Marjorie Roper (1901-72) Truly, there is always more to know. Yesterday I bought this newspaper at a boot fair for a quid, not even realising it had half a page about women in aviation until I was reading it on train home. 1/3 @politicdormouse.bsky.social @stockotrader.bsky.social
Show PostA pair of swans just flew over. They make the same noise I do when I walk fast up a hill.
Show PostAye, we can meck owt! My maternal grandad was a carpenter (as was his father). My Dad did a joinery apprenticeship before his Dad would let him come onto the family building firm. And I was always a Daddy’s girl so spent hours working with him and learning.
Show PostMy Dad was the same, a very practical man. He was a sheet metal worker and tinsmith by trade but he'd do electrics, plumbing, building, anything really and he wasn't a cowboy at any of it. His favourite saying (excuse the vernacular) was "We can meck owt." With a grin. And he would, and often did!
Show PostIf something could not easily be sourced, Dad made it!
