Tapestry of History

Yesterday we quickly discovered that we lacked a saw that could go through thin metal. Today was mostly about rectifying that so we could trim down a blind to the correct width. I'm now the proud owner of a very scary looking hack saw and a function set of blinds - a double Sunday upgrade. I also found myself with two whole trays of brownies, mostly done for my work colleagues but also to act as a pudding for Mark and Lucy who hosted us for a cracking BBQ and board game shin dig. I didn't expect the evening to take us on a journey into the past, looking at the history of Bristol's Google Street View and comparing old charted maps... But I'm kinda glad it did! Very cool to learn a bit more about the past and discover where we fit in to the weird and wonderful tapestry of history.
